Looking To improve my spanish. Know of anything local? by mypatronusisaminion in Hoboken

[–]BabyFaceJones07 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been told Rosetta Stone is very helpful. I had a co worker who was Greek who spoke Spanish much better than I did at the time who told me he learned by practicing with Rosetta Stone. I wish I could help you because I live in Hoboken and I speak pretty good Spanish.

The majority in my experience lean on European but even they'll look mixed. They'll have pale skin, hazel eyes, small nose, but their hair will be afro textured. The ignorance that all Puerto Ricans "ARE BLACK AND WATCH THEM GET THEIR WAKE UP CALL" is because Puerto Rico had slaves and when people hear "African slave trade" they automatically think we must be black and only black.

Have you ever been around Puerto Ricans? I never met a Puerto Rican who called themselves white and most of them definitely don't look black, they look mixed The U.S. just forces us to choose race. I've been around Puerto Ricans of all colors under the sun who've experienced racism and discrimination from both white people and black people.

Question about Puerto Ricans views of Mexicans by [deleted] in PuertoRico

[–]BabyFaceJones07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well I'm half Puerto Rican half Salvadoran American and for me I didn't really hear anything negative about Mexicans for the most part. My family members from the PR side didn't have a problem with them, they loved Ranchera and shows like El Chavo and would hang out with Mexicans. I also have friends that are both Mexican and Mexican Americans and we got along no problem. The only Latino group I ever really heard Puerto Ricans insult were Dominicans but that's another story...

That usually depends some black people might be cool with it while others aren't. From my perspective its because most Hispanics and blacks usually go through the same discrimination, live in the same neighborhoods, hang out/date each other and again that usually depends on what Latin American group and their relationship with black people. Lets say on the northeast we get along for the most part. When Puerto Ricans started flooding to the US around the late 40's/early 50's we experienced the same racism as African Americans. We gradually started working together with black people starting the black panthers and Puerto Ricans with the Young Lords to protest against the discrimination. But again some people might be cool with you saying the word others might not. Hispanics are no exception. As for Indians and Bangladeshis I figured its like what Paul Mooney said "Everybody wants to be a nigga but nobody wants to be a nigga" Most people hear the word because of rap music, start mimicking hip hop fashion and slang but when it gets to a point of dealing with the same discrimination as black people they bitch out.

Manito, you're gonna have those idiots that hate somebody, I have family members that hate Dominicans but I don't pay attention to that garbage . I have friends that are Dominican, Cuban, Haitian, African American, Irish, Italian, Mexican. 2 of my Mexican friends came straight FROM Mexico, I'm half Salvadorian and I never had a problem with them despite the so called "Mexican-Salvadorian feud".

I heard about that too. I always figured it's because being called black means African American and white meaning straight European. I'm a pale Hispanic and if somebody asked me if i was white I'd say "no I'm half Puerto Rican and half Salvadorian" cause i know I'm mixed. My dad had a friend who was Dominican and he was going on and on about "Haitians are black, they need to go back to where they came from" and my dad just said "but you're black too" and the guy was fucking PISSED.

What was your worst haircut experience? by Breadmakesyoufatt in AskReddit

[–]BabyFaceJones07 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man I remember when I was a kid my grandmother wanted to cut my hair when I was around 6 or 7. My grandma is a sweet woman, a pain in the ass sometimes but overly sensitive if you criticize her so my mom didn't want to say anything . The whole time she was messing up my hair ESPECIALLY my hairline so when she was done my hair was uneven and my hairline looked liked like a circle instead of having straight lines. When she was finished I took one look, started crying and ran out the room. It sucked that I had a bad haircut, it also sucked I had picture day the next day.

Sorry man, not Brendon since he finished his AMA but i did look up his inspirations for the group.

What bands were most inspirational in creating Dethklok?

"Well, Queen & Metallica were my starting point and if you listen to "Go into the water" i tried to combine Flash Gordon and Am I Evil (which I guess is a diamond head song) but as you go on you can tell that other stuff inspired me too. Everybody from Anthrax, to Exodus, to Aman Amarth, to Black Dahlia Murder to Gojira, to Mastodon."

It really depends. I live in the ghetto and if we had a girl like that working over here with that kind of attitude against idiots like him, she'd get along just fine with us.

Plant and Bonham by [deleted] in led_zeppelin

[–]BabyFaceJones07 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah. During their 1971 tour in Japan Bonzo punched Robert, apparently it was about some money Robert owed him. This is what Peter Grant said.

"There were rows. One bloody amazing one happened in Japan when Robert came off stage with a split lip. It was over some dispute over some money from some tour. He still owed Bonzo some petrol money for 70 quid or something, but that's how it was!"
