Top 10 Latino Reactions to the Recession

“10. Borrow money and/or get Hispanics to co-sign.

9. What recession? It is always like this for us.

8. 17- instead of 15-deep in the Astro Van to La Pulga/Swap Meet.

7. Buy clippers at Walmart: Everybody gets a Number 1 buzz haircut on the lawn.

6. Cholas use crayons instead of sharpies for holiday eyebrows.

5. Now that gas is back to around 2 bucks a gallon, trade the Suburban for a Subaru.

4. Crank up the Holiday tamales business. Start taking orders.

3. Go to Western Union. Wait for money from Mexico.

2. Rent parties. (For true OG’s only ¿Tú sabes? ¡Firme!)

1. Recession is when your Compa is out of work. Depression is when you are.”
