I'm sitting in a Denny's with two other esteemed members of the board. While waiting for our pancakes and hash browns, we look over to see two guys watching Eddie Murphy's 'Delirious' on a laptop. At Denny's. In the wee hours of the morning. And we realized Bubbler could capture this bizarre moment so much more eloquently than we can. We miss Bubbler. We will send him pancakes.

Wait a minute. The only difference between those loosers and you loosers is they had a laptop to watch DVDs on?

From Urban Dictionary........

1. cholo 2870 up, 394 down
A cholo is term implying a Hispanic male that typically dresses in chinos (khahki pants), a wifebeater sleeveless teeshirt or a flannel shirt with only the top buttoned, a hairnet, or with a bandana around the forehead, usually halfway down over the eyes. Cholos often have black ink tattoos, commonly involving Catholic imagery, or calligraphy messages or family names.

Cholos often drive low riders.
A farcical example of a cholo from the movies is Cheech, from Cheech and Chong.

The U.S. context of the word Cholo/Chola originated in Los Angeles and can be a derogatory term meaning Chicanogangster or pandilleroor marero. They are born in the U.S. and favor Spanglish. They might refer to any Latino unlike them as pocho, or white-washed.

A hardcore cholo will wear the baggy look, bigtime tatoos, and a shaved head. The chola might have long permed black hair, dark lipstick and a teardrop tatooed under her eye, (and their toddler might have a shaved head and wear the garb unless abuelita steps in.)

This look is subject to change as gang-culture evolves. So what a cholo looked like in the times of Cheech and Chong is out-of-date, but still revered with some pride. There are even plastic figurines with this look sold in gumball machines all over the streets of L.A.

The word has a totally different context in South America, where it means indigenous peasant. But in the States, it has been appropriated and the context has evolved.
Your pants are looking a little cholo. Why don't you downsize.

This is such a lame thread. The two people hanging out with you aren't any fun.

Hell, wait 'til tomorrow.

I have no idea what you're talking about.

In other news, I'm driving a couple hours south tomorrow to hang out with some random SJers. I hope they aren't lame :)

You are so lying. Nobody wants to hang out with you, looser! :D

"Your wife's a Bigfoot, Gus..."

"I took your kids fishing, they dipped their heads in the water, came up with fish and said 'goonie goo goo.' What the **** does goonie goo goo mean, Gus? I went to Spanish Harlem and said 'Goonie goo goo.' My friends told me to shut the **** up."
 
Classic Eddie.

"...and the mother****ers come up with fish! I jumped back and said, "Can you believe this mother****in' ****?" Then the kid took the fish out his mouth and looked at his brother and said, "Goonie-Goo-Goo." What the **** is going on here? Normal kids don't do **** like that, Gus. But I'm gonna tell you something, mother****er. You can take your mother****in' hairy fat-ass wife moustache ***** out the ****, you can go upstairs and get the mother****in' dog and scoop up the **** and take Eddie and get these motha****in' long Angela Davis afro-wearin' mother****in' kids of yours and put them in the mother****ing "Goonie-Goo-Goo"-mobile and get the **** out! And if my wife don't like that, she can get the **** out, too!"
 
"I been seeing newspapers every Sunday morning, white dudes be in there in their drawers, never having no bulge in they drawers. Smiling at you. If I ain't have no bulge, I wouldn't be smiling!"
 
I'm full of fail.

I thought it would be funny to bring my laptop to Denny's, throw on some Eddie Murphy Delirious, and see what everyone's reaction would be when the goony goo goo's starting flying around.

My experiment in agit-Delirious failed. No one noticed, though I did get a plate of pancakes the Denny's folks gave me that someone ordered for someone who wasn't there.
