Lmao, if you live in San Diego and can’t handle Spanish you’re gonna have a bad time.
All of Southern California really.
My favorite is when dickhead white folks say they want “all the brown people to go back where they came from,” without the slightest clue that they were here first, and then they get real pissy when you point that fact out.
Yeah I point out that Texas used to actually be part of Mexico and the border moved, not the people.
We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us.
Isn’t Texas properly pronounced as Te-has, a Mexican name?
I live in a white flight town in the bay area. We’re still 20% Hispanic. Maybe Shasta?
Even then, most of California was predominantly Hispanic from the mid 1700s onward. When the Spaniards came to Baja California in the mid 1750s, they established 5 Franciscan missions in baja, along with 21 missions between San Diego and just north of the bay. They mixed with the indigenous population, who then became known as Californios. It wasn’t until white people started showing up just prior to and especially during the gold rush, with then California becoming a US state in 1850. Even then, it wasn’t until the late 1800s/early 1900s that California became predominantly white, and that was primarily due to the sheer number of white folks that moved west in such numbers that eclipsed the local Hispanic population.

For reference, San Diego and Tijuana back right up to each other and have one of the busiest border crossings in the country.
You’re going to hear Spanish there.
Btw, San Diego would be Saint James.
Best we can do is Saint America.
That’s interesting and all but many Spanish speaking people have had family on this side of the border since California was a Mexican territory.

The accurate response to this is “a whale’s vagina.” Idk how one can live there and not know this.
Foreigner here, what’s the joke there?
It’s from the movie Anchorman with Will Ferrell, it’s his pickup line on a date.

“Let go my sandy eggo!” Just doesn’t sound very appetizing.
Saint Jack
Without Doug.
Douglas?

Especially ironic in San Diego, where literally anywhere in the city is a mere 15 minute drive to the Mexican border.
San Diego is full of the wildly entitled and elderly though, so the self-selecting personalities can’t be a surprise for anyone who has lived there.
It’d be a really pleasant place to live if it weren’t for the huge amount of selfish, entitled fucking pricks that do.
Sand the eggo.
Is it an interesting question @ptz@dubvee.org
