ok! I need help everyone! My girlfriend's sister and her husband are stuck in NY at Laguardia with no where to stay, and no one to hang with. They had to come from Arizona to the Stanley Theater...

brotherman Jul 11, 2007

Yeah really, according to you and a few others NYC will be utopia in the new system. They should go tour that peaceful area called the Bronx. LOL!!!

socalgal Jul 11, 2007

brotherman Jul 11, 2007

The name is Dan... Sarcasm is my game... ;oP And I prefer to be called a gringo. Thanks. Haha...

socalgal Jul 11, 2007

HAHAHAH gringo sounds so...demeaning. guero's much nicer. some even have it as a nickname. lol

brotherman Jul 11, 2007

I used to work with Mexicans at a supermarket. They cussed at me in spanish all the time. Guero and Gringo were widely used. Hahaha...

socalgal Jul 11, 2007

We used to used the loudspeaker and say things like, "Chata vargas, please call the Deli". LOL!! I don't remember what that means. I hope it's not bad. Haha...

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

chata/chato is short/stubby. lol i assume vargas is a last name. lol

B
brothermanOG 2004

Hmmm what else... They used to call me the spanish term for a woman's you know what on the loudspeaker. They'd be like, "C..... come back to the deli". LOL!! Those guys were nuts.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

The Mgr was oblivious to what they were saying.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

B
brothermanOG 2004

Sorry, we're talking about Spanish. That sounds amazing and all, but the "C" word in Spanish is just way funnier. ;oP

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003 brotherman

yes but when i was little and just came here from Poland and we were in a crowded place and i was calling my aunt in Polish.. and then suddenly people were looking at me weird and my aunt told me it was a bad word in spanish.. that wasn't fun.

Ok, that is kind of funny. Haha...
