Flags. I do sell blockprints of flags, sell em at street fairs. The Mexican and Puerto Rican ones move pretty fast. Union Jacks, French tricolors pretty strong sellers too. If I were up north I'd probably do more east and south European. US flags #1 seller, By Gawd.

They especially don't like when those white people don't even speak Spanish (which is fucking embarrassing for anyone to move there and not be at least passable) and are annoying Americans. 

Sounds kind of like people on this side of the Rio Grande too.

That and Ohio don't fit the shape of the print. I do regular drawings too though so I guess it could be arranged.

Back to the topic at hand, Mexico City has always been Foreigner Town. There weren't many live Aztecs left when the Spanish leveled the ruins of Tenochtitlan and started building their own bit of Europe. The Spaniards mostly lived in colonial cities while the indigenous people lived in surrounding towns and villages, growing food to feed them. I read that prior to Independence, half the Spaniards in New Spain lived in Mexico City. Plus at least one Irish rebel that they built a statue to.

It was the natural place for Europeans to flock-- all the amenities plus nice climate, no malarial swamp like Veracruz, and I don't think Acapulco, for being the official Pacific port, had much going on pre-WWII(?) I bet if we looked at old letters we'd see them bitching about Frenchmen, Germans, Brits, Confederates, Scots-Irish Western Union bosses, Jews, and those crazy Italian Modotti sisters.

It's unfortunate that a pack of American dorks currently may be dorking it up in English, but their kids will probably be Chilangos.

Hey, do they have an HEB in Mexico City? 

The HEB's in Monterrey are glorious. I highly recommend a road trip.

Soriana man myself. It's not so much a store as an ecosystem. Everyone you know will be there.

Sure.  Was in downtown Chicago last month.  Son lives in nyc.  

Go to the west side of Chicago. Humboldt Park, Little Village... It's Peurto Rican... Hey you some habichuelas con arroz, you know, Peurto Rican food, But you better hurry, it's gentrifying quickly...

Polish town is near north side, or if you want to really see a Polish town, go down south to Hegewisch... They might not speak you you in English, but I'm sure it's changed since my time

My wife can't stand "city people" which just means white Mexicans to her because she thinks they are so snooty. No idea why she married my blonde hair blue eyed bolillo self.

Favorite nickname/ slur ever is "bolillo." Was working with an employee in inner city Houston and one of our customers asked why the bolillo was with her that day. Before co-worker could answer,  I replied that she was teaching me Spanish.  The look on the customer's face was pricelessly hilarious.

After that, it was ALWAYS "Bolillo."

"Embrace our differences," is all I have.

Didn't want to start a new thread. If you can't grope the president, who can you grope? Video in the link.

Man gropes Mexico president as she speaks with citizens on the streets

Video shows man trying to kiss and embrace Claudia Sheinbaum, highlighting both security risk and harassment faced by Mexican women

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/nov/05/man-gropes-mexico-president-claudia-sheinbaum

Claudia Sheinbaum, the president of Mexico, has been groped by a man as she mingled with citizens on the streets of Mexico City, raising questions about the lack of presidential security and the level of sexual harassment faced by the country’s women.

A video of the incident on Tuesday shows a visibly drunk man trying to kiss the president on the neck and embrace her from behind, as she removes his hands and turns to face him, before a government official steps in and places himself between them.

Go home. You're drunk, @Zepol87. This ain't Tijuana.

Sheesh! You can't take that guy anywhere.

Obvious question, if they can't protect her from some drunk jackass wanting to cop a feel, how the fuck are they supposed to protect her from the Cartels?

Yea that’s not good at all especially after the mayor or something just got killed after speaking out against the cartels and she ramped up that talked also recently. I wouldn’t go into a big public crowd honestly if I held office
