Notice how his english suddenly improved? I think his user name fits.
Jimbo, have you followed the OP's posts previously in this forum? If you had, then you would realize that Pendejo was joking in his first post. Too bad people like you can't take a bit of humor.

I can take a joke as long as it is clear that the person narrating it has a good sense of humor.

I am going to change my user name to one that translated from Italiano means, " let' have a few drinks and have hot monkey love baby".

This isn't a very funny joke but for what its worth I see the humor. Shining example of mediocre humor besides the fact that the OP intentionally practiced bad English, now tha's a bit insulting to those who know better.

You have to see it as satire in the context of recent posts/threads. The OP was parodying the driver who mows down cyclists then thinks he should sue them for damage to his car.

Cannot people chuckle without taking everything so seriously...

Then again, if you have to explain satire to an audience... it probably isn't worth using it. But I think enough people get it.

I thought it was funny Pendejo...

Okay I see your point. Isn't it interesting how something can be interpreted in many ways. I think it funny but just in the idiotic sense.Did it really have to be stated in the way it was with bad English? What would that imply? Should I the white honky laugh when silly Mexican boy in my homland pulls a Mister Magoo? Sorry dude, I call it as I see it. Just for arguement's sake how about presenting this joke in a different way? You have to admit the presentation of it did leave a lot to be desired. Besides isn't this the real joke? Evoking a response in defense to the joke that was presented as a bit of a attack on cyclist. How funny would the joke be if we were all, particularly myself smart enough to disregard the like. Getting off the soapbox now for possibly the best thing about my internet connection, free porno

Who said it was a parody of a Mexican? Are you associating a dumbass english speaker with being Mexican? I thought the OP was just parodying an idiot, or a redneck who hadn't done a lot of schooling. There are a lot of illiterates in America even today.

You need to analyse your own presumptions and prejudice against Mexicans there I feel. But I'm not the OP, so maybe he did have Mexicans in mind... I just don't see it. Maybe his Spanish handle made you assume he was Mexican.

Yeah I kinda figured you would say that. What can I say, dumb Mexican just sounds good, plus the op is in AZ right? No doubt in my mind he's an idiot. By the way I'm bit racist and proud of it. Now that's funny stuff!


If you believe that I have some land for sale........
