Tequila shots!

Drinking coronas!

Hooking up with questionable women!

Yes these are all the things people do in the celebration of Cinco De Mayo!

What is Cinco de Mayo? It's my birthday!

I don't really know why Mexico designated my birthday as their primary drinking holiday...way before I was born, but I guess they knew what kind of guy I'd grow up being.

One that condones copious amounts of alcohol.

So this Tuesday, this 5th of May, have a 5th of tequila for your boy Munkus.

And buy me a new psp, because mine was stolen a couple days ago and that sucks.

WOO CINCO DE MAYO WOO TURNING 23!

    Cinco de Mayo (Spanish for "Fifth of May") is a regional holiday in Mexico, primarily celebrated in the state of Puebla, with some limited recognition in other parts of Mexico.[1][2] The holiday commemorates the Mexican army's unlikely defeat of French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862, under the leadership of Mexican General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguín.[3][4]

    The Battle was significant for at least two reasons. First, while outnumbered almost two-to-one, the Mexicans defeated a much better-equipped French army that had known no defeat for almost 50 years.[5] Second, this battle was important because it would be "the last time that an army from another continent invaded the Americas."[6] While significant, however, Cinco de Mayo is not an obligatory federal holiday in Mexico.[7][8]

    While Cinco de Mayo has limited or no significance nationwide in Mexico, the date is observed in the United States and other locations around the world as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride.[9] However, a common misconception in the United States is that Cinco de Mayo is Mexico's Independence Day.[10] Mexico's Independence Day is actually September 16 (dieciséis de septiembre in Spanish),[11] which is the most important national patriotic holiday in Mexico.[12]

    LET'S GET DRUNK BECAUSE THE MEXICANS BEAT THE FRENCH IN A BATTLE THIS ONE TIME

    My 21st birthday, my parents got me a flask, a handle of vodka, and a funnel.

    My dad was clearly the guiding light of these purchases.

    I had a Cinco de Mayo party last night to avoid the impracticalities of midweek tequila drinking.

    Ended up drinking Skittle vodka with an attractive maths student and watching School of Rock until half four in the morning. And now, thanks to helping clear up after the party, I have an almost-full bottle of Jose Cuervo, most of a bag of tortilla chips and half a piñata's worth of sweets.

    So yay Mexicans, I guess.

    This isn't even about me getting worked up about comics for no good reason. I can see why people dislike Foglio and might like Millar and that's just fine and I just have a tendency to go on and on about something for no good reason, but those two things I can at least understand whereas all of the French jokes

    well, they're just fucking retarded and people who like them are fucking retards who don't know anything at all because they're retarded and should shut their retarded mouths.

    I don't understand why Cinco de Mayo is a party day in the United States. There really isn't a significant-- or at least significant enough-- population of Mexican-Americans in this area for it to be a big thing.

    Have a happy birthday, Munkus. My buddy's birthday is that day too.
