So I feel like an idiot.

This girl I've been seeing for the past few weeks, nothing serious, just casual, is half-Mexican. I had no clue until I met her mom. How fucking dense am I?

12. I've found many Hispanics in Utah like to be called Mexican.

I don't know why, but they do.

14. Utah? Isn't it tough being a drunken Irishman in Utah?

I had trouble finding beer in a couple of the little towns.

17. They're doing away with that soon.

I think in the coming year. I'm the type of guy to get drunk at home, though. ;)

13. My dear Drunken Irishman!

You're not an idiot...

Nor are you dense...

Race is maybe not something you really care about...

You see the person...
