There’s much less cultural difference than you’d imagine in our amigo’s version of España.

Some of us have been treated to a wonderful diatribe informing we ignorants that Galician isn’t an actual language per se, it’s merely a local dialect, as different from Castillian Spanish as Texan is to ‘us’.

For someone who complains so bitterly about people’s perceptions of what is to them a foreign country, he shows remarkable little sensitivity towards the cultural differences in his own.

What a shame the worst bullies are often the ones who scream the loudest about being victims…

Our amigito may toss in the occasional gem to us, but it’s tiring and depressing having to sift through all the manure that gets thrown along with it.
