Ask a Mexican

I listened to this as an audiobook. I would say it was half worthwhile and half terrible politically incorrect, shock humor. It's the kinda humor where you're offensive “as a joke” but really you're just perpetuating hate. For example, I didn't enjoy his homophobic jokes and macho “real man” rhetoric. Also talked about being a republican as if it was a good thing a lot.

A lot of the jokes reminded me of George Lopez. The kind of “this is racist but I am that race so I get a free pass” humor. Racist jokes don't magically become ok when you are that race in my opinion. Sure you can joke around with friends and family but when you make a persona out of it, you're giving other people permission to do the same.

Despite all the bad, there were some legitimately interesting tidbits in here. I'm from MA and hardly ever see Mexicans so my lack of knowledge kept me intrigued. I certainly learned a lot of Mexican-Spanish curse words!
