Honoring morons, sinvergüenzas, and/or other such ne'er-do-wells might sound illogical at first. Your initial reaction is probably to pull back your hand and prepare to unleash all that is unholy across the face of the unsuspecting moron. However, with the right distance and some perspective you'll quickly see how much you owe to your local cadre of sinvergüenzas and their seemingly endless supply of chancla-worthy deeds.
Think about it. Your average day would in most respects be dull beyond belief without pendejos spicing it up in ways only they can. What would you do during your morning commute without the driver who is texting while weaving in and out of traffic? How uninteresting (and quiet) would your workday be without your co-worker incessantly swearing at her boyfriend on the phone while in the cubicle next to yours? What about the significant other who gave you gonorrhea, or that friend who faked being a Salvation Army bell-ringer in order to pay for his new flat screen TV?
DEADLINE: Friday, August 20th.

Chivalry is dead. Chivalry, as in the code to which the medieval knightly class swore to adhere - which included behaving in a courageous, loyal, and morally righteous manner at all times, even when it was hot as hell and the chaffing from that unforgiving suit of armor was unbearable.

While technically news of Mel Gibson’s rant leaked last week, it seems that this man has worked his ass off and deserves some real recognition – even if a week overdue. Because if we don’t acknowledge his zealous dedication to racism and xenophobia, what will we be teaching the kids about perseverance? El Guapo wants the kids to know that if you keep your nose to the grindstone you can be anything – including a fanatical, anti-Semitic, sexist, racist and gifted sinvergüenza. Those hoping to rise to the Jedi sinvergüenza level , please take copious notes.
