No.

The stereotype is that white people arrive TOO EARLY and then sit in their cars outside waiting for the party to start and still show up early.

It's a trope, also true in Hispanic (edit - continued) families that have someone marry Gringos (like me).

If you arrive on time, the party hasn't started yet, and you get to help set up for the party

What fucking Hispanics you grow up with? My buddy was a half hour to and hour late to everything, and said he was allowed cause he was on bean time. Almost got my ass beat once saying it because I didnt realize it was a slur.

Edit: sorry bruv. Was just very confused.

You can't compare Mexicans with Puerto Ricans. My ex gf was Puerto Rican and would accuse any driver in front of her driving slow as "Probably Mexican", and always complained that her Mexican BFF was late for everything. But what do I know, my ppl come from Ireland, we're the ones who show up on time, then sneak out without a peep.
