DB's latest rant

[Doggie bow wow]

Gringolandians, not True Expats, resent anyone who comes onto their Fantasy Island (See Lord of the Flies) and who do not submit to their delusions and fantasies of what "Life in Mexico" is like according to their Gringolandia Manifesto. You have to agree with their view of expatriatism which is in essence fakepatriatism. Or, if you will, not expatriatism at all.

If you are found lacking, like having a different opinion about expatriatism such as learning the language, Spanish, in order to call yourself a real expat, then you are attacked.

In my recent battle (and trust me it was all one sided, theirs, since I had far better things to do then watch them act out like pouty-lipped Jr.High kids,) the Gringos in Guanajuato were incapable (so it seemed) to read my blog entires "IN CONTEXT" to determine whether or not I was writing about them.

Americans, more than any other other nationality, seem unable to "get it."

For example, when I write about Gringolandians I am writing about a concept, an idea, a philosophy of expatriatism and not about any one individual. For that matter, about anyone singular or plural. I am writing about the differences between a true expat and a fakepat. If the Gringolandians concept, idea, or philosophy does not apply to you then why are you getting your undershorts all twisted into such a huge, unimaginable knot?

Here is what I mean when I blog about Gringlandians. Here is a good example of what a fakepat is:

" Can you tell me please the best store to stop at coming from the airport to
Finisterra? We don't need large quanties like Costco. Would like american
products like milk,chesse, fruit, beer...basic needs. I was told WalMart, does
this one have a food section?"

Note: This Fakepat mentions "beer" as a "basic need."

This is a born and bred gringolandian in all her American products glory!
