Those crazy Mexican Gringos. Tch.

I remember when they wanted us to put water stations up for them in the middle of the desert.

Also this: http://www.somethingawful.com/articles.php?a=2597

On one page appears a colorful drawing of people walking in the desert near power lines, with the hint that, “If you get lost, guide yourself with light poles, train tracks or dirt roads.”

Yeah that’ll help, especially if the track is in shamble’s or leads to a place that use to exists about 50 or so years ago.

You just pwned yourself, you know that, right? :stuck_out_tongue: That’s about as absurd as saying a British Chicano or a White African or something. :stuck_out_tongue: Gringo is a term for NOT-Mexican people :stuck_out_tongue: Like as in, the COMPLETE opposite of a Mexican. :stuck_out_tongue:

At least she’s not smuggling relatives across the border on weekends.

God I hate the border patrol in Texas…every stinking time I went to Mexico to visit family they’d make us stop the car and question my parents RUDELY for 30 minutes in the 100-degree heat just because we had Missouri license plates. Because Missouri License + Ethnic-looking people = DRUG DEALERS! Pinche migra! >_<

That’s reserved for holidays.

Ok, how about this. Pork Taco. Mustard. :O! Does the absurdity strike you now? :stuck_out_tongue:

I doubt it would taste bad <.<

Except that there ARE white Africans. They all sound dutch of course, but they are totally African.

But yeah, Gringo is a (derougatory) term used BY mexicans to describe white folks, particularly American white folks.

Porking a taco? Man, I knew you Mexicans loved your tacos, but SHEESH.

Makes perfect sense to me.

Oh, wait, you mean actual tacos. Tortillas, meat, and veggies, and such. Not…

Yeah, that’s, um, weird.

Charlize Theron. I think she’s an American citizen now, making her an African American. Take that, Political Correctness!

oi, it’s deragatory? Guess I ought to stop calling my brother that then.

Actually, she is from South Africa, so she is techically South African American. That is the problem with trying to define by race and country. It is understandable to call blacks whose families were slaves African American since there is no way of knowing much ancestory, I know I don’t know my families origin further than Africa. Africa is a whole fucking continent, yet it is treated like a country. Many white Americans say things like “oh I’m German/English/French/etc. American,” but keep blacks grouped as African. Converserly white Americans should then be called “European Americans” since Europe is a continent too. The differnce is that white Americans for the most part know their ancestory. What is also fucked up is how Mexicans, Cubans, Spainards (especially them since they are from Europe), etc. are all grouped as one ethicity too instead of the varying countries when they do know their backgrounds and where their family originates. European Americans are special in that they are individualized, while all other ethnicities are grouped together. This is nothing against anyone here, just something that has bugged me for awhile and was brought to light even further with a class I took last semester.

And not only by mexicans. =^^=
