The county I live in is 15% Hispanic
The county next to me is 48%

I Wasn’t talking about only at work . I’m saying I was just suprised that I would go stretches of my day and never hear English. Then I can get irritated by just hearing it all day long everyday.

Not hate, suprise followed by occasional irritation.

Given your profession, I think it would be to your great benefit to get over the irritation and make an honest effort to learn Spanish. Even a modicum of effort on your part will make your life a hell of a lot easier, and you'll probably make friends with some cool little brown baws.

That was probably the other thing that stood out, the roads are in incredible shape


Ranking of worst roads in the US has Louisiana at 3 and Colorado at 8. The roads in Colorado get wrecked during winter by the snow plows then the temperature swings during seasonal changes. You see it in the mountains more.

Welcome to the Rockies. I got 14" on the 30th and it was below zero at night. It's better in Denver than here, but it's definitely gonna be a big change from Bossier/Cado Parish

You don’t mean to tell me that a state named after a river with a Spanish name in the western part of North America has….my goodness the horror….Hispanic folks. If they are bothersome in Denver don’t head 3 hours south….there’s an area just south of Denver called New Mexico and it’s full of Hispanic folks. Just south of that there’s a nation and a whole other continent full of Hispanic folks…. Denver is probably best if you live in that part of the world and find Hispanic folk troublesome

I don’t find them troublesome. I said I was surprised that there are counties 48% Hispanic

I never found any good Mexican food in Denver, especially compared to Texas
.

I agree. New Mexico is bad also. Most of Texas is as well….but some of Texas is spectacular.

In the downtown Denver area there are Mexican resteraunts that look like dive bars . I’d say there are 40 in a small area. They look like true mexican places , not Tex mex

I’d reckon all 40 get their food off the same SYSCO (or equivalent) truck.

You’re in the wrong part of Denver. I’m guessing Arvada. Go to sunnyside, shop at locavores - no ugly women there.

"fricking Hispanics and I am tired of all these 10-12 year olds not riding in the front seat".


WTF? You do realize there are free translators on your phone right? Say what you want communicated then show the person you want to communicate it to your phone.

12 year olds though ?


I don't have kids, but I would think size has something to do with it. I just don't understand why its such a big deal for a 10-12 yr to ride in the back.

The types of meat, cheese, and tortillas change.

Meat bread and cheese makes up most cultures diet.
