[quote=bearishgurl][quote=no_such_reality]I’ll just come down to your house and stay a while Brian. I’m already here. I’m staying. Make sure you’ve got a nice IPA in the fridge and maybe a good Pinot Noir.
Oh, and HBO. I’ll want to watch some HBO.
And make sure the AC is working well. I like it really cool at night, so I’ll run your AC to about 62, that’s a good sleeping temp. I can snuggle under the blankets.
It’s just a little expense, don’t worry, you’re a rich american and can afford it.[/quote]
NSR, I don’t think undocumented (“unauthorized”) immigrants who actually live on this side of the border have A/C, watch HBO or drink Pinot Noir. LOL…
I could envision this if they were being “hidden” in the back bedroom of their more “established” legal-resident relatives’ homes.
But an unauthorized immigrant having this “lifestyle” in the US in their own right? Uhhhh, n-o-ooo.[/quote]
BG: I think NSR was riffing on the old John Belushi/SNL skit where he showed up at a friend’s house and started himself to their food and booze and then started making long-distance phone calls.
You know, the whole metaphor thing, as I agree that most illegal aliens are probably not sipping pinot in an air-conditioned manse whilst watching HBO.
