Don’t focus on the words, focus on the passion.
Where there is love, there is no need for … la comprensión.

Heh. It’s satire, right?
What cracked me up about this the most was that I actually understood every word.

He had me at “Donde está el baño”!!

See, I do know Spanish, at least when spoken like that…
I thought he’d find a way to win her over by the end, but not with that farewell, lol.

See – we like Spanish.
And they called us “nativists”… or whatever it is they called us.

No se apoye contra la puerta.
I picked up plenty riding the subway.

Ah, pero cuando Allahpundit nos dará un video acerca de los ateos españoles, él conseguirá un iPhone – ¡inmediatamente!

The opening line I use on women is “Pull my finger!” How does one say that in Spanish?
Anybody else notice that girl could be Michelle’s sister?
radjah shelduck on September 26, 2007 at 9:31 AM
LOL nice,:)
trailortrash on September 26, 2007 at 9:52 AM
Que hora es? What time is it?
Yo tengo dos bicycletas? I have two bicycles?
This video is getting scary, because I can understand some of it, and I’ve never studied Spanish. Looks like I will be prepared for our new Aztlan overlords, like it nor not.
I trust that Michelle would never inflict such a performance on any member of her family. On the other hand, I suppose that if paid enough money, someone could sit through it.

OK, I’m not getting those minutes back.
But still, I’m at a net gain in quality time spent here.

Once I got pushed through the gag reflex, I found it totally HA-larious. I have some friends who will really enjoy this. Gracias (and de nada)!

Depending on her circumstances, he may have seemed more attractive to her if he could translate “I want to get married and I have American citizenship.”

Just what I needed this morning, very funny!
Irenaeus on September 26, 2007 at 11:23 AM
No habla Espanol (or whatever).
And proud to say so.
Spurius Ligustinus on September 26, 2007 at 11:37 AM
That is funny.
¡Bravo! ¡Otra … Otra … Otra!
carlitos on September 26, 2007 at 11:44 AM
That was good.
Buzzy on September 26, 2007 at 11:52 AM
OK
That was sort of cute.
But, lo siendo, no se habla espanyole.

infidel4life on September 26, 2007 at 12:31 PM
Funny… but that guy’s shirt made me want to puke.
RightWinged on September 26, 2007 at 12:44 PM
The guitar playing is horrible.
The satire is to die for.
Kini on September 26, 2007 at 1:41 PM

jediwebdude on September 26, 2007 at 1:55 PM
I had to have my friend Ernesto translate for me. Much funnier after the translation.
Troy Rasmussen on September 26, 2007 at 1:58 PM
Now that was funny.

What?! This isn’t the Wednesday Stupid?!
Jaibones on September 26, 2007 at 3:22 PM
His pronunciation wasn’t bad with the exception of the “R”s. Most non-Spanish speakers have trouble pronouncing that letter (also double R). I can do it very well but that came from moving to Puerto Rico at the age of 8 so it got ingrained in me early.
pjcomix on September 26, 2007 at 3:57 PM
Cinnamon Twists! hehe
Kinda reminds me of some Aussie friends getting ahold of an OutBack SteakHouse menu. They were all, ummm do you know what this means? And the the heck is a bloomin onion?

Cute, but here’s the french version they nicked it from (I assume).
Tanya on September 26, 2007 at 7:45 PM
Lol, that’s awesome =P I’m learning Spanish this year…
emmaline1138 on September 26, 2007 at 7:58 PM

Brit to a Frenchman “excuse me, do you speak English?”
“Yes, do you speak French?”
