Mullet Traincar
Well, I've finally encountered the largest mullet demographic here in Spain: highschoolers. I mistakenly took a train full of these guys to Madrid for my class today and it was, perhaps, my funniest Spain experience so far. They were about 14 to 16 years old and the moment the train doors closed, a half a dozen or so took out cigarettes and started smoking. Then, amazingly, they all looked around with shifty eyes and the fifteen of them or so removed full size glasses, Fanta and Smirnoff Ice from their baggy clothing. Then they actually mixed Smirnoff Ice (what, maybe, 5% alcohol) with the Fanta and ice they bought from the "chino" (yeah, Spaniards are basically horrible people and call all convenient stores "chinese man"). They all had they're boom-box cell phones they're favorite songs and after about five minutes all started saying, "Guys... you don't even understand... I'm soooo drunk right now." Between the five different speakers playing Spanish rap, watered down Smirnoff Ice, lots of cigarettes, mullets, more ear and mouth piercings than you can shake a fist at (but only on the guys... of course), and the piece of Euro bling that one of them had (yes, actually, a giant golden € sign... I want one), it's the best Spanish party I've ever been to.
