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

I think the italian word for that is "cipollini".

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........

OP is in a state where you can get eaten by an alligator and go to Disneyworld (not neccessarily on the same day).

It wouldn't be satire then, would it?..

The last 8 posts were worth wading through the whole thing. Thanks guys. It was entertaining.

My Fellow Americans (and others),

Due to the unfortunate controversy that has arisen over my original post, I feel it is my duty to clarify my position once and for all so that we may put this behind us, like a bicycle seat.

Yes, it was a satire, triggered by some other recent posts.

No, it was not meant to ridicule any particular foreigner's attempt at English. It was merely intended as generic bad English, something that I am very good at, probably as a result of reading so many student papers in my former role as college professor. Actually, if I were reading the post for the first time myself, I would probably guess that it was written by someone from India.

I live in Florida, not Arizona.

I want to thank all of you who have supported me through this very trying time. You know who you are.

Finally, in response to those who have publicly questioned whether I am a racist, anyone who knows me will tell you that I have never discriminated on the basis of race, religion, or ethnic origin. I hate anyone who is different from me equally.

Thank you, and God bless.

I'm not a racist either... I'm fond of all races... particularly whites...

[post edit - That is meant to be a joke BTW... ]

And I was slightly offended that non-americans were wrapped in parentheses in your salutation, Pendejo. You're obviously a recent immigrant...

Everything is clear now... except for one thing: why would you call yourself pubic hair? is it another form of sarcasm?

Quando estoy en Mexico todas las chicas bonitas me llaman "pendejo." Entonces debe ser una buena cosa, no es cierto?

LOL - and I thought all the banter about what your screen name meant was just messing around....

Actually here in Mexico some people use certain offensive words to demonstrate a level of confidence with their loved ones... so to speak.

Anyway, i have the feeling that I'm not the first mexican you talk about it and pretty sure that you have already a PhD in the "pendejo" subject.

I agree that this was an amusing thread. For once.
