There are also Mexicans who use the apostrophe properly.

Given that I'm well over 5 feet tall, there's not much chance of me being mistaken for Mexican.

I'd be proud to be mistaken for a Frenchmen or Canadian.

no wonder the station got replaced by mexican radio.

I believe the less hurtful term is "hispanic" or "latino". Being called Mexican is like being called Canadian or French to Americans.

What about a Mexican?

There are tall Mexican's.

Im' unaware of tho'se Mexicans'

Solar Temple Suicides, Campaign Trail 72, and Hemlock Lane
Dionysus - 8 E. Preston Street, Baltimore
Friday June 4
FREE Show!
Show at 10PM

June 4th is going to be the debut show for my band, Campaign Trail 72, opening up for Solar Temple Suicides at Dionysus in Baltimore.  It will probably be just me solo though; playing guitar, effects, sampler and drum controller, though hopefully my synth player will be able to make it as well.  Our music is (mosstly) instrumental electronic shoegaze, and this set is going to be tracks we are working on for an EP release later this year.  Most songs will be originals.  A few tracks will be covers/reinterpretations of various songs, from Cat Stevens to 90s rockers That Dog.

Do we really need two Kiss Lube announcements?

My Of Montreal/Janelle Monae post brought the thread back to topic.

WTF!?!? What in the world is wrong with a Mexican being called a Mexican!? There is absolutely not one thing even slightly derogatory about that. Do you have a problem with an American being called an American? A Russian being called a Russian? Someone from Brazil being called a Brazillian? This insane made-up hyper-sensitivity over nothing whatsoever drives me crazy! If he would have used some actual derogatory term, it would be a whole different story but all that did was identify the specific country one is from. Period. Damn!

The real problem is that line-up. Pathetic!!!

[azaghal1981]

That whole bullshit exchange could've been avoided if the initial term used was "Spanish-speaking radio station."

I think the point was the majority of the music on 99.1 is not Mexican, in that it is not from Mexico. Hispanic more accurately portrays that it is music from many Spanish-speaking countries.

^ Don't know. I don't listen. Maybe you are right. It just came off to me like he was insulting Mexicans as though there was something wrong with that.
