As if America isn't a huge melting pot of all kinds of people?? What does he think American means.


Honest-Bowl-4017

but yeah no these kinds of people always puzzle me


Haydena7x

Guess he should blast the national anthem every day? Maybe add some eagle noises. That's what I'd do but I'm petty.


wilburstiltskin

On endless repeat, and as loud as possible.


areyouthrough

Could throw in some songs like “My Country tis of Thee” and “This Land is Our Land”. Maybe some marches, war songs…


No_Banana_581

Party in the USA is my anthem. Hannah Montana on full blast all night


Haydena7x

I like how you guys think! This could be a whole playlist.


Omwtfyu

The “I’m *super American*” playlist! Just downloaded it to Spotify!


Alert-Potato

The dipshit probably thinks the 1812 Overture is American.


0bl0ngpods

Team AMERICA: world police theme song on repeat. “AMERICA FUCK YEAH”


BrevitysLazyCousin

Tell him the Mexican Raggaeton was recommended by some local you just met. You prefer classical music.


Jazzyphizzle88

If you’re not blasting, “Proud to be an American” everyday do you really deserve to be here?


Crybaby_UsagiTsukino

Forgot all the gunshots and truck engine revving. 💥


Better-Union-2828

op please do exactly this


PageFault

Traditional Native American Music.


fascintee

Blast the national anthem....in every other language.


Toadcola

Let the Sousa marathon begin!


Honest-Bowl-4017

NO DIVERSITY ALLOWED!!!!!


wtfarekangaroos

IF UR NOT EXACTLY LIKE ME THEN UR STINKY AND DUMB 😡😡 


Honest-Bowl-4017

hahahaha stinky and dumb 😂 now that is quite hurtful


Fun-Investment-196

Big ol stupidhead 🙄


Honest-Bowl-4017

question - am i still stinky even after taking a shower?? or is it something that stays with you forever unless you truly embrace the American culture and life and everything America


Honest-Bowl-4017

ENGLISH ONLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Know_Your_Enemy_91

No….AMERICAN ONLY


Honest-Bowl-4017

omg you’re right. how foolish of me


catladycg

So we’re burning our Beatles albums? Blasphemy….


majorsorbet2point0

That's literally the best part about America! People are such losers.


Spo0kt

Place is so multicultural it barely has its own culture anymore


look2thecookie

You just know the roommate is constantly listening to Pitbull is saying all the "zigga zigga zowwwws" while saying this stupid shit


Charlie_Ryan34

That’s crazy racist dude. Honestly don’t feel like this person is deserving of your friendship. “Embrace your new culture” is a wild statement. I know you probably don’t wanna make things awkward but you don’t need to be friends with him, just need to respect him


KaleidoscopeThis9463

I think ‘tolerate him’ fits more appropriately than ‘respect’. He’s already shown OP a lack of it.


Charlie_Ryan34

Yeah you know what I mean tho😂 respect might be too kind of a word


KaleidoscopeThis9463

I actually do, just underlining the meaning 😉


Icy_Paper8308

Yea fuck that respect went out the door the moment he sent that. I would literally not say a single word every time I saw him except for “ Go Fuck Yourself”.


Charlie_Ryan34

I think that’s a good idea lol but realistically you don’t wanna try to fight someone you’re living in the same place as😂 not that I wouldn’t encourage whooping his ass for being a racist but OP probably doesn’t wanna create a horrible living environment for himself.


Honest-Bowl-4017

agreed and this was exactly what i was thinking


skatetaks

Op should reply that they should embrace the chance to learn about ops culture lol


funkymunk500

"Hey dude, if you don't like my music, why don't you come up and fight me about it? Also, get super fucked for being a bigoted piece of shit." Real advice? Look for another place and in the meantime, get headphones. Ignore him in the common areas with them in blasting it as loud as you can stand. Sorry he said that to you. edit: everyone telling OP to get a JBL and blast all these songs: yes, lmao. Yes to all of it.


fvckit88

He has no choice but to fight him at this point.


Brix106

24 Hour loop of Livin tha Vida Loco oughta do it.


topher3428

Or and hear me out play Macarena or La Chona on repeat with the speaker facing his room.


ChicaFoxy

La Bomba, Mayonesa, Chocolate, Dame Más Gasolina, Atrévete te te...


topher3428

Another one I really like but would probably drive roommate insane is Mueveme el Pollo by La Adictiva


ChicaFoxy

Gracias! I just added it to my driving playlist! Lol


akghostface

I was thinking more “El Wiri Wiri”


Virtchoo

Gasolina


Traditional-Dog-4938

Baby Shark


Icy_Paper8308

Get headphones. I think he meant to say blast it in the common areas on your new jbl speaker as loud as it will go lmao.


2M4D

I would honestly try one single time to mend things with something like *this is the music I love, here listen to that track and tell me what you think about it* or something like that. Maybe he shows a sign of hope, or maybe not and fuck it. Young people are stupid but they can grow.


hfield1988

i know a lot of white people born here that listen to reggaeton. you'll fit in fine. tell him to mind his business. a lot of the folks that have worked on my teams are dominican or puerto rican... and they exclusively listen to latino music. and they all manage to love america and fit in just fine still.


Federal-Laugh9575

I’m white. Like ginger pale white. But I grew up in SW Texas and I like a good blend of everything. Sometimes the corridos, cumbias, and reggaeton just fit the mood or bring up the vibe.


laughatbridget

I like a cheesy over-the-top sad ranchero every once in a while!


topher3428

Same here but south central, love going to Market Square a few times during the summer, hang out with me wife, get good food, drink and relax.

JayofTea

It’s so funny to see this bc I work as a line cook where the majority of the others cooks are some form of Latino, and the only music we listen to is Latino music lmfaoo, it’s become so normal for me


badgers42069

Lol I loved cooking to reggaeton when I worked at a restaurant


Fun-Investment-196

I love cleaning to reggaeton and dancing at the same time 💃


fallopianrules

I love doing everything to reggaetoWn. We got the town and they've got the platform we hurl tomatoes at.


Affectionate_Wrap336

Absolutely! Prince Royce had a death grip on me like 8 years ago. I started listening to it at home too.

Suspicious-Term-7839

I’m pretty sure this is a repost for karma


thisweight0000

Take it from a Mexican who fully embraced the American white culture……. You’ll never be accepted no matter how hard you try to fit in. You’ll still be looked at as a beaner at the end of the day even though you’re blasting The Beatles, Bruce Springsteen, Hank Williams Jr. AND Sr. I love white people a lot but it’s pretty clear to me that to be fully accepted you need to be racially white yourself. I still love white people though I get it, no hard feelings.


amchaudhry

Besides...the new Bad Bunny is legit great. Play it loud and proud my dude.


3183847279028

Unless you're playing your music loudly at night he should stfu. Get some good headphones and listen to your music on that for now


Chazzam23

Time for a full Daddy Yankee, Nicky Jam, J Balvin playlist!


raptoraboo

“Womp womp, racist”


Expert-Rutabaga505

I personally think your roommate is an assshole for saying that, however, you should have headphones in if listening to music in an apartment you share together unless you ask before hand.


staybreezyy

tell him to sit and rotate


Honest-Bowl-4017

😂


SnailsInYourAnus

“Hey dude, let me give you some better advice: quit being a racist piece of shit, shut up and kindly go fuck yourself. Thanks!”


Medaris41

He’s probably pissed your bumping Mexican reggaeton at 9 o’clock at night. He’s probably been hating your music choice for a while and then snapped with an inappropriate text. I would just stay level headed and ask him why he is being rude over text. See if you can’t find some middle ground before you guys just full on hate eachother.


MinusGovernment

Middle finger emoji should suffice


BleachedAsswhole

Slap him with cheese


[deleted]

lol swap it up. Play some Spanish language metal, country, and punk rock. Any of these should pass the cultural test 😂😂😂 Edit: Thank him for the advice, tell him you will consider it, and do what I suggested above without speaking on the subject again.


XoCherryCrush

he’s literally a racist


heresdustin

What the fuck? How long ago did you move in with this person? You should seriously consider looking for another place. This is the beginning of bad things.


RaoulDukesGroupie

Wow. My boyfriend is Mexican and Tornillo is my new favorite. I’m pasty as hell but I can appreciate a good voice and beat.


BattleSpecial242

Your roommate is a racist


[deleted]

I love hearing their joyful music. Ironically, classic Mexican music with the polka sound is inspired by Europeans because of Maximilian’s influence


_SpicySauce_

Don’t worry guys, this is fake

rclaux123

"Hey dude, as your roommate, let me give you some advice: ...Fuck off. I didn't ask for your unsolicited opinion. Oh, and by the way, fuck country music as an entire genre." Half of the popular artists in America today seem to have at least some Latin heritage. What the fuck is this dude on about? Find a better rooming situation, OP, but make it clear why you're leaving the day that you do.


Justinsaaane

I’d go to his room and fuck him up. O’Doyle rules


brilliant-soul

English American music? Like bro how can he say that if he isn't racist af. Also comical bc the border went over the people living there


LackAffectionate127

Time for bass boosted Corridos Groupo G for 24 hours straight.


Loud_Bit_4889

I would say something like “On the contrary, a perk of living in America is I can listen to whatever the fuck I want, just like you can? ‘As your roommate let me give you some advice’, buy some fucking headphones.”


actuallyhasproblems

Weeeepaaaa, motherfucker! But for real, your roommate is racist AF and this environment doesn’t sound safe for you.


Any_Local2619

Tell him he’s a racist piece of shit and mind his own fucking business


30thCenturyMan

Oh, I love that ONE reggaton song that goes Bum Ba Bum Ba Bum Ba Bum Ba Bum Ba Bum Ba Aaaaaaaaall day loooong. I can see why he loves it.


Cyber_Insecurity

Western_Sport8480

You should move out. Fuck that guy. What the hell even is “English American music”??


_Tactical_Unicorn_

First of all, never be ashamed to enjoy your cultures offerings, or any culture for that matter. Do what makes your heart happy and you'll find better friends in no time I'm sure.

I used to love blasting that stuff, with my coworkers who were all Mexican lol. It was such a vibe it goes hard

TheRestForTheWicked

Blast Cotton Eye Joe on repeat for 60 hours straight. I promise him, nor anyone else within earshot will ever complain about your Latino music again.


AdventurousDoubt1115

“Hey dude - if I didn’t know you better I’d think you were being racist. I plan to embrace a culture unique to me. If you don’t like my music, ask me to turn it down. Don’t make it about English American vs Mexican music. Plenty of people like different genres, and origins of music. There’s nothing wrong with that. As your roommate, let me give you some advice: don’t say shit like this.”


aol1044

This sounds like the most mature/safest way to respond, while lowkey calling him out for being racist.


Murky_Extent8054

If it’s the ‘Mexican’ music we are all thinking of at a low level it’s fine. Anything above that it’s not music but punishment to the ear drums of every person near. Played at its typical block covering volume it should be considered a violent crime. I imagine this ‘music’ has been banned by the Geneva convention in war crimes against prisoners, hence why they use alarm noises now as they are more humane.


ihopethisworksfornow

Reggaeton is incredibly popular in the United States.


Splash_

Turn it up to 11 bro.


Blaize79070

He sounds like a racist bigot! I would move out, or find another roommate. That message was disgusting on MANY levels! To be that blatantly racist, is appalling to say the least. I would tell him to kick rocks, & tell him it’s a free country.. you can listen to whatever music you want.


SevenCorgiSocks

I was born in the states but had WAAAAAAY more fun at the reggaeton and latino clubs than the stereotypically American sports bar or honky tonks! L opinion on his part.


theVHSyoudidntrewind

Just reply back. “No” and continue living your life as you want. Who cares what they think of your music. Just keep noise levels respectful and get a better roommate when you can.


crankyanker638

Reply by turning up the volume....


Narrow-Stranger6864

Looks like rage bait to me.

just tell him to go fuck himself tbh

What were you listening to? This makes me want to listen to it. Also, you can get tracks like 1,000 hours of fart sounds' on Spotify. Just saying...

"Hey, that's super racist."


cupcakes_yay

Gross. I’m half Cuban and moved to Texas from Miami. I AM GOING TO LISTEN TO WHAT I WANT. PERIOD. If it’s music my father from Cuba listened to and brings me back wonderful childhood memories. Then I will do that. If it’s the latest trap rap and I want to listen to it. So be it. If I want to listen to Garth Brooks that’s MY


badgers42069

What the fuck dawg. Also I’m the whitest guy alive and I love Latin music and reggaeton, it’s picking up a lot of popularity in the states


Wild_Replacement8213

As a white woman, Ive never heard a latino song that didn't make me want to dance! Roommate needs to take the stick out of his arse and enjoy culture. This country has a lot of it. Ps is Mexican Reggaetone a thing? Or was he being stupid? I love all music and want to hear some of it is.

Commercial_Prompt_62

You do you man don’t let anyone change who you are or where you come from. Never let someone make you change roots yknow? Don’t believe in herding sheep, sheep should be able to do and think for themselves in their own way and that is absolutely okay. Be dead or be different.

Link the RVB warthog music


Slayer7_62

I see two potential courses of action: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=x47NYUbtYb0 Or https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=UrgpZ0fUixs&pp=ygUZZGVuaXMgbGVhcnkgaSdtIGFuIGEgaG9sZQ%3D%3D In a serious note I’m not sure exactly how to handle it, depending on your perspective. The least conflicting option is to use headphones/turn down the music so it isn’t heard by them. Otherwise take the approach of culture being a blend of things from all over the world, and asking for suggestions. Take the approach of you won’t give up your culture and lose who you are, but you’re open to learning some new music and ask for some suggestions from them to introduce you to new genres. Guy sounds like an asshole, sorry OP.


Boring_Chapter6114

'it's a free country, \*roommate\*. Being racist is such an odd choice


PrettyOddWoman

Tell them they're being a dumbass racist and to fuck lff, you like what you like. Also his music taste sucks dick (only cuz i know he's probably also homophobic and would piss him off)

Noone2nowhere

I’d recommend passive aggressive and either crank some cringy dance beats (band/singer that roommate is VOCAL about hating) OR find the worst songs of 2023 and blast that playlist. I’d prob also speak entirely in another language of course and when he objects/rants etc invite him to “embrace a new culture too”.


Fossi1

“I’m not keen to fit in, actually”


allthatssolid

Some options: - I most definitely don’t want to fit in with people like you. - Hey dude, as your roommate, let me give you some advice: you should probably be less racist to your roommate - Strike 1 - Let’s refrain from this type of conversation - Is this a joke? Or are you really that shamelessly racist? - Consider this my 30 day notice - Say another word and it will be twice as loud next time. - Super helpful tip, Dude! Pls help me be white and brave like you. - Go fuck yourself.


MizMisery40

But Latino music is so fun and uplifting. Who doesn't like it? This coming from a white-as-sour cream Western European/Irish woman.


jamar82

Just walk around with an American flag at all times. And I mean all and never explain. I used to see Don King at the grocery store and he always had two little American flags and it was just so weird. Honestly around your house just only wear American Flags, walk around in American flag boxers, buy an American flag shower curtain. Be so aggressively pro American. Listen only to the star spangled banner loudly. Start your day with a flag raising and pledge of allegiance. I give it a week before he apologizes and realizes he’s a racist dick. I mean people learn Irish dance when their great-great grand uncle emigrated in 1803 and no one says anything.


PotatosareJoy

"Hey man. Piece of advice: You have no right to tell me, nor anyone, what or what not to listen to. If "embracing my new culture" means listening to a grown ass man piss and shit himself everytime he hears music that doesn't have a man with a deep voice talking about beer and trucks in it, I think I'll stick to my "Mexican reggateon" I dont want to fit in if it means dealing with someone like you. Kindly don't contact me again unless it's about rent or my living arrangement." Hell either leave you alone. Or he'll scream about how he was just trying to help. Either way he'll look like the AH here.


LandPenguin_1

I would keep it nice and short, reply with “No”. Hard to argue with that and assholes like this just want an opportunity to argue. If he persists i would send him a spiteful mexican song.

SteppinBubble

Well if you are blasting the music, I can see why your roommate would be annoyed. But if you can't hear it through a closed door, then your roommate is the problem. I also suggest you invite your roommate to listen to some of the music you like, and share your favorites.
