Who’s who, 1st gen. edition

Pittsburgh is not typical a very unique place in America and American history. I won't go into it but I love history and trust me, Pittsburgh and it's residents are big part of American advancements in the workforce .
Same applies for places like Guadalajara. Famous for something I love...... Tequila and Mariachi. Loads of history, just a tour of the landmarks speaks volumes about it's history and place in history.
I want to visit before I die

 

Pop was from PA. We (me and 2 brothers) moved into the Appalachians to escape from the FBI and he took to coal mining. Glad I got out of there, but thinking of moving back to become one with nature. I might not make it without internet, though.

 

FBI? If you are talking Hoffa stuff, uh oh

 

I don’t know much about it. If I did, then I wouldn’t tell you anyways because the Pirogies aren’t very good in the Slammer.

 

I hear ya

 

From the looks of things, we have returned order to the universe. This is a 1st Gen thread again

 

Not until Gurrl Powerz shows up with her next monthly chip on her shoulder.

 

Puerto Rican here as well, my madrina was Cubana.

 

Uh oh. Rican take over

Wow, you just sent me back in time, man.

 

I really wasn't into this genre of music until I went to the Lower East side Manhattan during parade weekend. Ohhhhhhh mannnnnn. Changed my life forever. To hell with the parade, this was Ave D from Houston to 14th St. Bumper to bumper traffic, and there had to be a few thousand Ricans, other latins and Hispanics just having a non stop party. The woman, ohhhhhhh the woman .

 

Hunstville Alabama. Us space, and rocket center. SUPER COOL!

 

Ok I'll add that to my list of places to go

 

Ok, that was fuggin hilarious. I've only heard stories of the chancla from my mexican friends.

 

My abuela could throw hers around corners I swear, almost boomerang style. I would run to another room and it still hit me in the head.

 

Skills bro man, skills

 

Being half Rican and half Cuban did have moments of WTF.
I spent a majority of my childhood with my cuban grandma and 1 word describes every little bug. Bicho.
Well in Rican that has a completely different meaning. Basically my Rican grandma wooped my ass the 1st time she heard me say it.

 

I’m just a Serbian/Hungarian/Irish/British/Russian Mutt.

 

After you posted a picture I was curious where you hailed from but I'm afraid to ask anymore. We've become the land of the constantly offended. My wife is 25% Mexican and the rest Irish and god knows what else. She doesn't look Mexican at all and no one believes her

 

Don't forget Linda Carter (wonder woman) was part Mexican also.
We are all mixed up over here so there really isn't a look anymore

 

Back to it. Lapel pin for style points.

 

Bro, my wife is from the Phillipines. First time I was invited to her parents house for a family party her mom answers the door and says "we have some puto in the kitchen, one brown and one yellow, I hope you try it and enjoy."

My face went

She realized and said it's not what I think!

A few months later they offered me some mamon

 

gotta love it

 

You guys are missing out on being part Himalayan which is good when you have a job that requires altitude endurance. I had this one Hand Lotion photo shoot on the 13th Floor at Universal one time and was glad of my heritage. My other parts are Appalachian which I’m proud to be, as well, but we don’t have a box to check when looking for jobs.I wonder if we are being discriminated?

 

Yes you are. Now go grab a flag, a beer and jump in your truck and do something about it damnit



Edit
I missed a w

 

I’m mostly Serbian. Hell my last name is Serbian. But yea. I’m a mut

 

I'm like a quarter Japanese, anyone else or am I alone?
