no, but it is most certainly the largest brazilian grouping in massachusetts and quite possibly, by percentage, in the united states. no, i rather like brazilians. i culturally appropriated -- sue me, f*ggots -- the use of "my friend" as a form of address about a year ago. by all accounts, we get on well. well, if we didn't, i'd have had to burn my place down for the insurance money by now. i was assessed to be at a professional working capacity in portuguese on some dinky government test for some job i wasn't gonna get no how, but i think with a little study and not defaulting to spanish with my brazilian workers, plus a little less passing out in front of mario kart youtube speedruns after taking 2000 mg of gabapentin, we could bump that up to a full professional working capacity.

brazilians are preferable to some other minority groups in that they don't fly off the handle if you ask whether they know someone other brazilian who also lives in the city. with the CAs, it's a somewhat vacuous question, as you can be assured they do all know each other.
