"Everyone there was as Goan as our gaunti dog, patto ladru."

If you weren't a Goan(albeit a reluctant one) yourself, the above 
statement would be a grave insult to those Goans resident in Goa and 
anyone proud of his Goan origins.

For your information:
1] There are no commonly known Goan breeds of Dog. 2] "Gaunti" is used 
by most people to refer to the origins of food. It is only used by the 
misguided "elites" as an adjective to describe people.

I'm sure you can come up with something better if you are trying to 
describe how 'Goan' a person is.
