Tough crowd tonight.
Don’t let them back you down, lee.
I worked with a lot of latinos and no group was ever more casual about putting the wrong people into the wrong tribe than they are.
Anyone who is remotely Asian is a Chino. Hawaiians, Chamorros from Guam, Filipinos, Vietnamese, everyone is a Chino. Anyone who fits into the generic Whitepeople category is Anglo.
In honor of this anyone from South of the Border is therefore Mexican, and descended from whatever pre-Columbian tribe that first occurs to us. Including our fellow-American Venezuelan cannibals.
Bon appétit!
Heh, that’s quite amusing actually. We used to have a Chinese high school student in our Spanish choir, before we had any Hispanics from the congregation. I don’t know how many times I told people, “El nino Chino no es nuestro hijo!”
