Lol the music being played. Don't think I've ever been to a Dominican bodega that didn't have Dominican music on.

On a related note I pretty much never go to a bodega these days. Only find myself using them when I'm working in the field in Brooklyn. I'll drop in for a drink and a quick snack. Many of the areas I work in don't have a lot of shopping options.

Well Puerto Rican music is super popular throughout Latin America so that could confuse things.

You're obviously picking on me, if my post was off topic then so is 90% of this thread. And you're actually the one who derailed the thread further by bringing up a comment from way back that neither me or anyone else was talking about.

You pick on me because I don't blindly agree with you.

But whatever, I'm not entertaining this nonsense anymore

I was just saying PR dont dominate busineses like cab and bodegas which are usually the domain of new immigrants. By the second and third generation Italians, Jews, and other immigrants no longer work frequently as cab drivers and store owners or workers. Although Uber and Lyft is a diferent phenomenon. Heck, I would drive Uber overnight if I can't sleep if there were not already so much competition.
