for future reference, i'm an OLD SCHOOL CHICANO. i keep it classic with the tres flores, the starched dickies and the smooth style of a down-ass vato. though i have absolutely no qualms with other races, though i do carry my own biases and opinions, i champion peaceful coexistence through segregation. that is not racist, it is the realistic world view of the modern chicano, the only viable line of defense in a world hostile to our interests and identity - AZTLAN.
that said, my political leanings are not so much racially motivated as they are motivated by expediency. after all, how can it be argued that this was never ours, that we are wrong for wanting what was illegally occupied and stolen by snakes? anyway, i was on a service call today. i took the call because i am my own boss. my line of business is HVAC, and being in south texas it is a booming business. this is the time of year where it's a free-for-all, and in such a crowded industry i let my work speak for itself which is why i am able to work alone. the call was about the fan in the evaporator unit not working which led to frozen coils. alright, easy enough fix i think to myself as i make my way to the property. i get to the door, ring the doorbell and i'm greeted thusly: old white devil: who the f*** are you! me: i'm the technician here to fix your unit owd: i didnt call you i want the man i spoke to me: that was me si- owd: I WANT THE OWNER I DON'T TRUST YOU PEOPLE me: hold on, let's start over again because you're making me angry *i clench my fist tightly it's a self-pacifying behavior* owd: GET OUT me: you shut your f***ing mouth, you called me for my services and this can go one of both ways either you let me into your house and we can get your unit working, we make a basic transaction and i won't have to see you ever again because you're already old, or i can take this elbow and jam it so far into your skull the poor pathologist will be picking out fragments all night owd: GET OFF MY PROPERTY OR I WILL CALL THE POLICE *he attempts to slam the door on my face but i slide my steel-toed boot in the doorway* me: you will regret this old man and i will remember your face. good day. *i pull out my foot and make a smacking motion with my fists as i'm walking backwards toward my truck* i ABSOLUTELY loathe people like this. it's one thing to refuse me because i'm all tatted up(there is still a lot of prejudice regarding tattoos; luckily mine are able to be covered up) but because i have tanned skin? motherf***er, i am born and raised in texas, my family is just as, if not more, american than you. i have an ancestral and spiritual claim to this land. just because i do not abide by your conventions doesn't give you the right to dismiss me. i've been studying muay thai for over ten years and i take comfort knowing i could have left a bloody pulp where that man stood |
shut the f*** up

Vaping Congressman accused of using campaign funds to buy videogames on Steam
Representative Duncan Hunter, a Republican from San Diego County, previously rose to short-lived internet fame for this video of him smoking an e-cigarette during a Congressional hearing. The hearing, by the way, concerned a ban on e-cigarettes on public aircraft.
"Yes, I vape," Representative Hunter has also written in an editorial, which carries about the same gravitas as 'yes, I wear a fedora' or 'yes, I wear a trenchcoat even though it's bright and sunny and I'm not in a trench of any kind. Quit telling me how to live my life, Mom.'
Anyway, he's back in hot water -- hee hee! -- for allegedly using campaign funds on videogames on 68 separate occasions over a scant two month period, totalling $1302. Supposing each transaction represents a separate game, that's an average of $19 per title, and considering the buying period ran from October 13th to December 16th of last year, I'm going to wager a lot of those were newer releases and big box games purchased during Steam's end-of-the-year sale, maybe with some bundles thrown in. I don't know. He seems the type.
Hunter is blaming his son for the expenses, though, as one does. Apparently, according to Hunter spokesman Joe Kasper, said son used his father's credit card to buy a single game -- an innocent mistake! boys will be boys! -- and then proceeded to make many more, unauthorized charges before the Congressman caught wise and tried to cut his son off. The purchases are disclosed in his 2015 campaign finances as "personal expense -- to be paid back."
As The San Diego Union-Tribune reports, there is no record the expense has yet been paid back. Hunter is apparently still in the midst of reversing the charges through Steam -- which should be fairly painless, seeing as Valve's got one hell of a customer-friendly refund policy. Maybe it's the sheer volume of purchases that's giving him trouble, or maybe he's not through with Fallout 4 yet?
But what if it really is his son's purchases and the dad's not actually a closet gamer? I'm not sure I buy that. When he's not vaping on the House floor, Hunter's been known to argue against the regulation of violent videogames, and he seems vaguely better versed in them than the average Congressperson (which is a pretty low bar to clear, granted).
