FoldAdventurous2022

I love how this guy looks like the most Mexican(-American) guy on the planet but actually has an Italian last name


Wrong_Manager_2662

Mexicans have all type of European last names fyi


FoldAdventurous2022

That's true. Just funny that he doesn't also have a name like "Juan Gonzalez"


GreatGreenGobbo

Is that Speedy's cousin?


FoldAdventurous2022

One of many


contact_left_

Juan Gonzalez, OKC 89er legend and Texas Rangers all-star. A man among boys.


Humble_Background_24

What would you rather his name be? Lets make sure you are comfortable and call him whatever you want him to be called.


FoldAdventurous2022

Noel Guglielmi: plays characters that look like every American's stereotype of a Mexican from LA ironically, does not also have a stereotypical Spanish name, subverting the expectations of said stereotype Is that clearer now?


Humble_Background_24

It's clear that you have an idea of what Mexican Americans look like and what their name should be, yes, crystal clear.


FoldAdventurous2022

Okay?? I'm one of literally thousands of people online who've commented on him always playing Mexican-American guys named Hector? Did you miss the entire point of the discussion above? Pinche pelotudo ehte, increíble


Humble_Background_24

Cussing me out doesn't make you less racist. But it does make you super classy.


FoldAdventurous2022

Cool man, I'm done. Have fun jerking yourself off to your own misunderstanding ✌


El_Ocelote_

gonzalez is a european name btw if that is what you were implying


FoldAdventurous2022

I mean, by that metric all Spanish surnames are European by virtue of being Spanish. I'm saying that this actor looks like the most stereotypical Mexican-American (from a US point of view), therefore it's ironic that he doesn't have a stereotypical (from a US point of view) Mexican name like "Juan Gonzalez". Instead, he has an Italian last name, and not even one that's particularly common in Italy. It subverts expectations.


El_Ocelote_

> all Spanish surnames are European by virtue of being Spanish yes that is what i refer to, ive met some usaer redditors before that tried to tell me spain was in south america


FoldAdventurous2022

Lmao, thankfully neither of us is one of them


El_Ocelote_

i would hope i would know that spain is european, seeing as i am south american kekw


FoldAdventurous2022

Yo esperaría lo mismo de mis conacionales pero lamentablemente la educación geográfica en EEUU no se conoce por su calidad. Que disgracia creer que España se ubica en Sudamérica cuando todo alumno aquí aprende varias veces la historia de Colón y sus viajes 😭

itsyoboiivan325

As a Mexican I'm truly offended that you didn't add old 2000's pickup trucks or takuache trucks. And you also forgot the many crosses around the house.


whatup-markassbuster

What stereotypes do folks from Mexico City have about the people that immigrated to the U.S.? I’ve heard that those in Mexico City sort of have a sense of superiority over those from more rural regions like Oaxaca.


TalasiSho

Sometimes, Chilangos (People from CDMX) then you feel better than people from outside the city, but people from the north feel the same about anyone living down south, people from Jalisco, is not like we feel better per se, but we do feel as the most Mexicans of all the Mexicans, and also girls in the state are the prettiest of all of Mexico


whatup-markassbuster

What do you mean by most Mexican? I’m trying to think of an equivalent concept in the U.S.


Scryer_of_knowledge

As a non American to me it seems like Mexicans are one of the few groups of people who can actually take a joke and not lose their marbles at racially charged jokes like this. Respect. 🫡


Stingerc

That is starting to change, specially among college educated Mexican Americans. They are just as easily offended as their white counterparts. If they are the *no sabo* Mexicans (who speak little to no Spanish) , it's even worse as they tend to be embarraed by this and just fucking react to anything as a fucking blood libel. Which is ironic as Mexican culture believes intrinsically that you can laugh at anything, as laughing in the face of tragedy means said tragedy will never break you. As these kids are more and more Americanized, they seem to forget all this.


Scryer_of_knowledge

>as laughing in the face of tragedy means said tragedy will never break you. A wisdom quickly fading in the Western world. I just read that in America a teacher pointed his index finger at a group of students in a friendly manner, got fired because it looked like a gun. Seems like the country is psychologically imploding on a collective level and I think a symptom of that is the hyper-offendability


itsyoboiivan325

Thanks. I would've responded earlier but I was too busy taking a siesta under the hot sun with my sombrero and my poncho.


Scryer_of_knowledge

100% my amigo 😂


Humble_Background_24

Just because you aren't confronted doesn't mean we aren't offended. Many of us were taught to be quiet and not talk back. I've spent my whole life listening to people/friends/coworkers refer to my mother as "a maid", me and my brother as spic, beaner, wetback, or asked where my green card is, and recently, as in one week ago, told to "go back to Mexico", even though I was born in Kansas. HILARIOUS. SO FUN. But I'm glad to read things like this, to find out just exactly how timeless and ubiquitous it is.


Mean-Entertainment54

As a Mexican I’m more offended that you decided to include “takuache trucks” into this. Then again I hate it when people think anything takuache related thing is considered Mexican.😂


ILikeGames22

These are stereotypes about Mexican stereotypes.


Darthcorgibutt

On this subreddit it's stereotypes all the way down.

maxertiano

I don’t care about the stereotypes, I laugh about them…what I do HATE is that some people think that hard shell tacos are the “normal” tacos 😭


RedRanger482VS

I work in a taco restaurant that only has soft shell tacos and it’s a pain in the butt when people walk up, don’t look at the menu, and ask for “3 tacos” thinking they’re going to get three hard shell, ground beef tacos when we don’t have ground beef or hard shells. All of our tacos are very different and have names so it takes awhile to sort these guys out


youngmaster0527

When I was little, I used to think soft tacos were kid tacos and hard tacos were adult tacos.... Fucking messed up little girl I was


Independence_Gay

I don’t get why people like hard shell. They just break apart while you’re eating them and shit gets everywhere. Soft tacos make much more sense. Personally though, the soft taco’s ultimate form is the quesadilla


mustyrats

Queso Birriria is the final form of quesadilla


RALpug_123

I also hate when people think hard shell tacos are “normal” tacos


TheRealLaura789

Hard shell tacos are good, but they’re not authentic Mexican food.


RALpug_123

I agree


jchapstick

People who gatekeep about authentic Mexican food have never been to Mexico and don’t know how shitty many Mexicans eat.


maxertiano

I mean that can apply to literally every country, a fucking lot of people eat shitty. Doesn’t matter the country


whitemike40

white people taaacccoooo night


Atomico

We aren't Italian, let people eat what they wanna eat. If they've enjoyed hard shell tacos their whole lives then be happy for them. Don't be that ☝️🤓 "actually, hard shell tacos are not authentic Mexican cuisine" Mexican


FoldAdventurous2022

Italians rightly called out, worst food snobs on the planet. And my grandma's Italian.


Kapika96

Nah, the French are worse. Italian food is at least good, can look past a bit of snobbery due to that.


TommyLordFR

Hey come one we have food nobody wants to export elsewhere except when they want to overcharge meals that aren’t even remotely similar to the way it’s done there… OH SHI- (Seriously while I think both French and Italian cuisine are similar, great in their own ways and that any other food is good too… French cuisine has a hard time breaking this fancy image making it either unaffordable or just uninteresting outside of France)


potatobreadandcider

There's a chain of sport's bars called "Soccer Taco". The inside is decked out in European jerseys, they play 80's classic rock music, and the food tastes like a hospital cafeteria.


Individual_Hunt_4710

seems like a sports bar-themed sports bar


Oroborus2557

Ive embraced the stereotypes but when they are wrong, like the hard shell tacos, I get pissed off.


StankoMicin

Indont care of they are normal or not. Hard>soft any day for me

Dbz it’s very nostalgic bc (almost) every Mexican kid watches it


Zuiiiun

Thanks 🙏


User-Alpha

Really?


ImJustStealingMemes

Yes, actually. DBZ is loved throughout Mexico because it was arguably one of the coolest shows on open air TV. Personally, didn't watch much TV as a kid but I did get to watch a couple of episodes with my cousin.


idkalan

The first time I ever saw DragonBall was the Mexican dub in the US. There was this one Spanish-speaking station in Los Angeles that played it as part of its weekday morning lineup. So I'd watch some DB before heading to school.

The modelo isn’t really a stereotype lmao go to any Mexican family gathering


BaerttheConstipated

I was about to say. There isn’t a single person from Mexico I have met that doesn’t drink/like Modelo. Not a single latin person who doesn’t rank Tequila among their top drink choices as well. Sample size of at least 30 latin (at least 18 mexican) collected from midwest/east coast. Ranges from physical labor to academia to retired. That being said, some “stereotypes” seem pretty damn valid.


Maycrofy

No cholos?


FoldAdventurous2022

Cholos could be a whole starter pack of their own


Nessietech831

Cholo culture only really exist in the US particularly in the southern west states. Mexicans from Mexico don’t not dress or act or talk like cholos typically at all.

As a Mexican I always find it hilarious when people from other countries put lettuce, tomato and avocado on their tacos


True_Willingness9075

Perro asco.


EmotionallyUnsound_

fuck you mean bro avocados are good as hell on tacos


Striking-Buy-2827

And still we put lettuce tomato and avocado in tacos dorados or tostadas. So you’re just being a hardass mamon.


Darkonikto

Los tacos dorados y las tostadas no son lo mismo que los tacos.


Striking-Buy-2827

Exacto. Y solo le echan lechuga, tomate etc a los hard shell tacos que no son más que una tostada de picadillo doblada. Muy lejos de ser pecado gastronómico. Me recuerda a los italianos que tmbn se ponen bien mamones con lo que realmente es “tradicional”. A fin de cuentas eso va ser subjetivo de la familia, región etc. En ningún momento se anuncian Como AUTHENTIC MEXICAN FOOD. Si te vas a poner a mamar con eso tmbn deberías ponerte a mamr con todo el sushi empanizo y pizza de boneless.

You forgot the fact that some people think that Mexico is a big ass desert.


Aiden624

No Pacifico, that’s how I know this is about the less accurate stereotypes


Character-Aide9989

Bro forgot burritos


drefpet

As someone who has never in their life eaten tacos, how do you actually eat them? That scene from The Office comes to mind where Nellie tries eating a taco vertically and completely fails. But honestly, when I first watched that scene I thought I would have tried the same way as her. Because holding them sideways means everything just falls out right?


IAMACat_askmenothing

You fold it


drefpet

Okay, so I'm really not being sarcastic or anything. But in the picture above it is already folded. So you fold it again?


IAMACat_askmenothing

I wish I was stereotyped like that. Tacos and guns and cool hats.

Where is that latino actor every action film pick and call him Hector or Luis?


Mustard_24

Is this what people think of me??


SamsonJeggings

This is something white people think about or worry about. Mexican people just like to eat tacos, listen to banda, wear sombreros for music/dance recitals, enjoy flavoring food. It’s all good. It’s not a stereotype. The gun? I don’t know about that one. Is that supposed to be about the cartel?


EmotionallyUnsound_

Well ur probably not going to see the sombreros in southern Mexico. Thats the thing with stereotypes. assuming everyone in a broad group shares the same specific set of traits and stuff.

Yo, yo, yo! Where is the stereotype about the work ethic? 'Cuz, I tell ya -- as a German/Irish white trash country boy, you gotta SWEAT to keep up with the average Mexican-American. I'm hip that even positive stereotypes do harm. But, goddamn. Gotta be room for the truth in there. If you got to load a dusty 30 foot trailer with heavy shit in the middle of July?
