good neighborhood gone bad
Our neighborhood has gone to hell in a handbasket.
Weve got mexicans, illegal mexicans, mind you, renting my house!
A mixed race couple WITH CHILDREN used to live there,
I think White/ Asian.
Then the Iranians live across the street,
the Nicaraguans and Cubans
-you guessed it- ACROSS THE STREET!
We used to live there, but we had to get out.
People were WALKING to the
asian and international markets
a few blocks away, instead of taking a car.
My wife who is from china couldn't take it anymore
The psychological stress was so intense that she was
experimenting with CURRY!
Can you imagine what that is like to her white husband,
expecting some nice stir fry with soy sauce, and the whole
house is smelling like curry??? It was due to her being invited over
to that Indian family, and I am NOT talking cowboys and indians,
I'm talking about the Other kind of Indian.
And just last week I caught her HUGGING the muslim Librarian,
who wears this horrible grey outfit with her hair all hidden,
what is she trying to hide? Is she a terrorist? and my wife HUGS her?
How do you think that makes me feel
my mojo isnt good enuf anymore, she has to go lesbian?
Thats right, I wear the pants in this family, and thats right,
we are
