People here throw parties dressed as their perception of Mexicans. So, sombreros, mustaches, colorfull pull over thingies, etc. Then they get wasted and yell out "Yijaaaaa" as if we ever say that.
If people eat tacos and drink Mexican tequila at Mexican shops or restaurants, cool! Awesome. But why wear a "costume" based on stereotypes of another ethnicity? So rude.
