I’ve never heard this before. What does it mean?

I never have in the past, but if I ever meet Guillermo Lopez, or anyone from his Latino Alliance, I’ll be sure to call them that now.

> We were really unaware of any negative connotations with the word ‘pork chop,"’ he said. “If it offended a few, it’s a few too many.”

Fuck you. A few will be offended by everything. You probably pissed off far more people by caving to such a stupid request than you would have just telling Guillermo to go suck a porkchop.

LOL the urban dictionary entry…

a slang term for the male ejaculate used more commonly now that we have found out that there is the same amount of protein in an 8oz pork chop as there is in the average volume of male skeet.

Just call the mascot a WetBack and ask if that’s more acceptable…

Sorry porkchop we the gringos have offended the hispanics and we must go over the border to give them a list of your potential new names.

WTF
