The slightly sacrilegious picture below is a parody of that sign and was sent to me by Alejandro.

It says "This home is tacoholic. We do not accept propaganda from McDonald's, etc." Instead of the heart of Jesus, which you sometimes see on this kind of sign, it shows a rotisserie ("trompo") with the chunk of meat that is used to make "tacos al pastor".
I then found another parody which says, " In this home Huitzilopochtli (the main god of the Aztecs) is worshipped." It goes on to say that if you do not want your heart to be offered as a sacrifice, refrain from knocking on this door.

Those little signs are hysterical! I'm torn between which is funnier, the "Tacólico" or Huitzilopotchli and the sacrifice. Maybe a cross, where the visitor is threatened with first being made into tacos and then sacrificed?

Where the sheer expanse of the suburban sprawl discourages much proselytizing. If only we had such natural defenses in Boston!
I think the "tacoholic" one is funnier, but the "Huitzilopochtli" one definitely would give a proselytizer pause!

Since I live in Colonia Azteca the latter sign would be best for me. After all I live on the two intersecting streets named for the first and last Aztecan gods..........
ReplyDeleteOH my! I hope you don't have a sacrificial altar tucked away in that beautiful garden of yours! LOL
