I think the title to this thread doesn't work. You should edit it to "Ask A Mexican-American Anything"

How many servings are on the picture? For how many days will it feed me considering my daily intake of 1900kcal?
(...)Whereas back then I wrote about the tyranny of the majority, today I'd combine that with the tyranny of the minorities. These days, you have to be careful of both. They both want to control you. The first group, by making you do the same thing over and over again. The second group is indicated by the letters I get from the Vassar girls who want me to put more women's lib in The Martian Chronicles, or from blacks who want more black people in Dandelion Wine.
I say to both bunches, Whether you're a majority or minority, bug off! To hell with anybody who wants to tell me what to write. Their society breaks down into subsections of minorities who then, in effect, burn books by banning them. All this political correctness that's rampant on campuses is b.s.

Flour or Corn tortillas?

Since the Mexican-Americans are ignoring your questions, I will answer for them since a Mexican guy I used to know told me I was an honorary Mexican.  The answer is always corn unless it's for a burrito, than the inferior flour is acceptable.

Corn (maize if we're being official) were the OG tortillas though.

I was told that "chinga tu madre" is a compliment, but the last time I said it, I got beat up.  Did I pronounce it wrong?

Also, if a Jewish woman marries a Hispanic guy, does the daughter get a quincenera and a Bat Mitzvah?

Lastly, bounce houses, yay or nay?

As a construction worker, how do you post on GH all day?  Is this the kind of stuff you guys are doing when I drive past a job site and see two guys working and eight other guys standing around watching them and drinking coffee?

it was most likely your delivery. did you yell it? did you put emphasis on chinga or madre? we dont accept no weak ****.

depends. is the guy FOB or americanized? if FOB, 15. if americanized, bat and sweet 16.

that + cumbias + beer = mexican child's birthday party
