A Chilango is a derogatory name used by people from Mexico for people specifically from Mexico City. It's kind of like one Mexican calling another Mexican a "wetback". People from Mexico City literally assume that anyone and everyone in ski towns exist only to serve them. They pretty much feel the same way about everyone else in Mexico, and the world for that matter. Anyway, it's pretty bad when people from your own country call you names because you live in a certain city, but they've definitely earned it. I have taught skiing for a long time and have skied with people from almost everywhere. I honestly can't stand people from Mexico City. People from Monterrey and other larger cities in Mexico are totally chill, but I can't think of one person I have met from Mexico City who actually gave a shit about anyone but themselves. So it's always been like this, but this past weekend something happened that pissed me off beyond the usual.
I am standing a the bus stop waiting to catch the in town bus with my 7 year old son and my 6 year old daughter. These Chilangos were standing there too. You can tell by the after ski wear: fur coats and fur boots, and cologne that hits you from about 20 feet away. It looked like a family with 3 kids and they had the grand parents with them. There oldest daughter was about 10 or so. The bus pulled up and the door opened right in front of us. My daughter starts to move to the open door and the 10 year old Mexican girl pushes her out of the way and actually said "move". So little kids usually don't have great manners, and I looked at her father kind of expecting him to apologize or something. He just gave his daughter a look like "that's my girl". I so wanted to curb stomp the prick.
If you believe in Karma, and not just the 10/10 that we dish out on NS, these people have like "Death Valley" karma. This may sound like a bad generalization, but I swear it's true and it seems to get a little worse every year. I don't know if the East Coasters get invaded by rich Chilangos like we do every winter in Colorado. I hope you don't but if you ever run into them, you will immediately know what I'm talking about. Maybe if enough people tell them to go fuck themselves, they may learn how to start behaving like human beings but I doubt it. For my part, I will give 10/10 karma to anyone who "Crop Dusts" - rips a rancid fart while standing next to, a Chilango or covertly wipes a little snot on their Fur Coat. Post tales of Chilango abuse here.
