Today I overheard a conversation between a Mexican girl and a White girl, in which the Mexican girl openly discussed firmly believing in El Chupacabra. I don't find this surprising, as I found a lot of fairly interesting beliefs among Mexican immigrants where I used to live.
However, the true gem was the White girl's discussion of 'illegal aliens', involving a long story about a family member getting into a car accident with an 'illegal alien', and some more discussion of some other, progressively more odd things, until I finally realized the girl thought 'illegal aliens' came from outer space.

That's pretty dang funny.
ReplyDeleteAs a child of the 70s, I remember the shows about the Loch Ness monster, Yeti and Bigfoot. I lived in mortal fear that a version of Bigfoot lived in the woods of rural SE Pennsylvania, behind my house.
