Never heard of that before.
I googled it and all I got was trousers.


In a lot of Spanish speaking areas it's a nickname given to people of East Asian decent.

It does mean Chinese.

But lots of descriptive nicknames are common, like Chapo (shorty), Gordito/Gordita (fatty), there's different ones based on hair colours, etc. I can post an article listing all the different common ones if you'd like.


That gives a good breakdown of Chino as a nickname.

Last night, I had very bad acid reflux, I was breathing too fast, it felt like I was going stop breathing. I woke up very late, I was still tired.

It was my dad's birthday yesterday (the 27th).

I went to the cemetery to lay his Christmas wreath.

I guess you could say it made me happy to do that, but I miss him so much it hurts.

Time does not heal all wounds.

That's really sad, I'm very sorry. A virtual hug from a virtual stranger seems wholly inadequate but it's all I have.

I woke up early with a panic attack from a nightmare this morning and it f****d up my whole day.

I found out my coworkers hate me because they think I'm the bosses favourite
