"Blaxicans"?

Are you trying to parody yourself, Tender? If so, you're doing a poor job.

If she's not doing anything for the public, does it really matter?

Also, I'm really excited for the Reno Rally! I'll finally have a chance to see Senator Sanders!

Her campaign called me yesterday to invite me to it.  They just haven't given details on what "it" is yet, but I can assure you I'm not some shadowy billionaire special interest.

We were all billionaires in Zimbabwe.

Joke aside, that's interesting to hear. So, "it" is not a super exclusive thing, but it seems to be by invite. You'll have to fill us in if you go!

It's in fact a term from the episode "My Musical" from "Scrubs", when Turk tells J.D. that his and Carla's baby will be "Blaxican":

So, that term does exist ...

It's obviously meant as a term for Blacks and Latinos ... not black Mexicans.

But, not all Hispanics are Mexicans and it's sort of sit to lump Blacks and Hispanics together as one group, since they are separate demographics. Sitcoms are not real life, so I wouldn't use one as proof a term "exist".

Why use a term that others find offensive? Isn't that a matter of simple courtesy? Just asking.

That's correct. Please stop your political correctness, it's annoying. Besides, the word Blacksicans or Blaxicans is not offensive, it's just a word that I use to mash together the groups that Sanders is currently lacking in support - together with Native Asians.

It's not that it's offensive, it's just that it is stupid and nonsensical. But, everyone has the constitutional right to look like a fool, so have at it. And calm down, defensiveness is annoying.
