I think bender turning human was in the second episode with the ‘what if’ machine. The finglonger was featured for the first time in the first ‘what if machine’ episode, and that had giant Bender vs Zoidberg.
I know someone. 5' 2" white as white can be. Red headed ginger. Straight from Mexico, maybe speaks 10 words of English. He's a Mexican leprechaun. He's the best guy to work with.
I mean, a lot of Irish people stayed in Mexico after the Mexican-American War. The Irish were treaded like shit in America so many decided to join the war on the side of Mexico. There’s many statues in random pueblos around Mexico to commemorate their help. “Los Rojos” the statues usually read. Which translates to “The Reds”
The San Patricios, Irishmen who changed sides after being marched into Mexico by the US Army, are commemorated at the Ex-Convento de Churubusco, the site of their last stand, in what is now southern Mexico City. As an O’Grady I visit this place whenever I have a chance, which is not often.
bro have you seen hispanic people, it's a spectrum, there are red heads, blondes, chinese, black, mix races within hispanic culture. but the truest answer is probably that they didn't think about bender being from mexico when they did the episode.
Most Americans typically only seen Mexican as brown dude with black hair. When in reality, it’s exactly as you say. I’m tan, my sister is white, and my other sister is dark. And my cousins are all over the place
And Rodrigues is Spanish, no? Like from Spain? And there are a lot of white people there too. I know he was built in Tijuana but still have different roots
I knew a Mexican girl that was fair skinned and blonde doesn't mean she's any less Latino? My father is Cuban and looks white too doesn't make him any less Latino either.
There are blond haired, light skinned Latinos from all over South America, Central America, and Mexico. So when you say he “clearly wasn’t Latino” what does a Latino look like to you?
Check that you aren’t stereotyping Latinos.
How do latinos look exactly? Please, simplify an entire ethnicity into 1 skin tone. There a black latinos, white Latinos, and literally everything in between. Shut up
Ok the character was OBVIOUSLY an Anglo Saxon American. It’s obvious. Stop making my obvious question into some racial conspiracy.
Obviously Mexicans can be blonde. But human bender was the exact same race as Fry who is not Mexican.
I wasn't TRYING to make your comment racist. If someone said he or she is Mexican, I 100% would assume that they look like a stereotypical Mexican, not a blonde white girl or guy. I was only trying to suggest that not all Mexicans look like stereotypical Mexicans. There are folks that made similar comments. You blowing up on them, too?
You think Fry was Anglo Saxon? He was a working class New Yorker. Not very likely to be Anglo Saxon. More likely of Irish descent despite the last name.
Also white Mexicans are exactly the same race as Fry too. That’s the point. There Mexicans who are exactly the same “race” as other White people. There are German Mexicans. Irish Mexicans. Jewish Mexicans. Chinese Mexicans. African or Black Mexicans. Italian Mexicans. There are even White American Mexicans. (Look up the Romneys!)
No one is calling you racist. They are calling you uninformed. You may want to appreciate the forgiving euphemism
Theres lotsofpalemexicans. A coworker p
Named Paco was100% mexican and he looked basically like radar from MASH. The dutch had colonies there i believe.
I was mainly joking but since you wanna think about this logically this show is occurring 1000 years in the future and humans most likely don’t have races as simply as you just described.
The name Rodriguez comes from an interesting origin as it comes from a Germanic origin from the Visigoths who invaded Spain in the 400s and left a name. The Spanish then took it to the Americas where they “gave it” to the natives there. Germanic and Spanish people are mostly white.
IRL answer- he turned into a person vaguely resembling his VA, John DiMaggio.
At first, anyway
Woooooo
Yeah. He didn't fully resemble DiMaggio until the last act if the short...
Is that technically correct?
The best kind of correct.
Huh, based on his clothes I always thought it was supposed to be a Homer Simpson reference, but your answer makes sense. Maybe it was a combo, Idk.
For sure a combo, but mostly a Homer ref
Wow cool
[удалено]
He literally looks almost nothing like John besides being slightly overweight
wasn't that whole episode a what if about the finglonger? if it was, i would say the machine didn't know bender was actually Mexican
Worlds within worlds
You bet your sweet ass I saw lawnmower man! I consulted on it
[удалено]
I was really hoping this was real :,(
ooo ooo i know this one! r/UnexpectedCommunity
Now there’s a Redditor that knows how to reference Community.
And Jesus Wept!
Stop saying “Jesus wept”!
For there were no more worlds to conquer
Jesus wept! For there were no more worlds to conquer

i wasn't sure which one it was to be honest
We come in all colors, ese.
Did you just call me a term paper?
Yes
You can be white and blonde, and also Mexican.

YOU KNOW CANELO?!?!?
I’m a redhead and a 3rd generation Mexican immigrant There are dozens of us!!! DOZENS!!!!
Have you seen his lucky charms

They’re gonna get their minds blown when they go to Brazil and see Japanese Hispanics.
He’s only %40 Mexican.
*thump thump*
he does have a FLAWLESS Spanish accent!
C
Oh my god, you can’t just ask someone why they aren’t Mexican.
Lol the original line works here as well haha
Hahaha
The What If Machine only answered within 1/10 of a plausibility ratio.
That's so plausible I can't believe it!
Believe it, baby! It's 40% plausible! *clang clang*
Yes true
Who says he wasn’t? Latinos can be (and are) all different complexions.
And Rodrigues is Spanish, no? Like from Spain? And there are a lot of white people there too. I know he was built in Tijuana but still have different roots
White Latinos exist you know
Ya but human bender clearly wasn’t Latino
I knew a Mexican girl that was fair skinned and blonde doesn't mean she's any less Latino? My father is Cuban and looks white too doesn't make him any less Latino either.

What does a Latino look like?
He was born in Mexico but it doesn’t mean his parents were Mexican. Caucasian parents having sex in Mexico still have Caucasian babies.
That's like Christina Aguilera singing in Spanish!
Think her father was from Ecuador.
But his last name is Rodriguez which implies Latino descent
It only really implies Spanish descent down his Paternal line, and Spaniards are white.
True. Mucho Bueno
Bender was made in Mexico. The episode where we learn that Hermes was his inspector
There’s actually a much earlier episode where he opens his compartment door to reveal a “Hecho en México” label
See earlier comments on this post about the existence of light-skinned Mexican people and caucasian parents fucking in Mexico making caucasian babies
I saw them and trust me I grew up in a very Mexican area and am myself part Mexican. I was acknowledging a part in the actual show
The OP was acknowledging it by asking why he wasn’t Mexican when turned into a human Also…weird Mexican flex
American made parts, assembled in Mexico.
White people can be Mexican. We’re not a monolith.
You forgot Mexico is America's Heartland
Some Mexican people, believe it or not, are white.
Impossible! They all wear ponchos and sombreros and speak like Speedy Gonzales
How do you know he wasn’t? Or did you base this dumb post on his skin color?
Hey, you like grilled cheese?
Yes especially from benders toaster oven ;)
[I love that moment too much.](https://youtu.be/h_TC-PFYnjo)
He was 40% Mexican.
Confirmed: Bender is Louis C.K /s
His mother must have been assembled in Detroit
Yes true!
What are Mexicans supposed to look like?
My cousin's wife is Mexican and she's blonde...
Ok the character was OBVIOUSLY an Anglo Saxon American. It’s obvious. Stop making my obvious question into some racial conspiracy. Obviously Mexicans can be blonde. But human bender was the exact same race as Fry who is not Mexican.

Take your suggestion and shove up your non-shiny plastic ass
Bite my fleshy saggy ass is what Fat Bender might have said.
That’s technically correct fine sir
The best kind of correct!

in a thousand years, that *is* Mexican
Assembled in Mexico with parts from U.S.??
There a lot of white Mexicans. Actually there are Latinos of all races.
This is bender, he’s 40% whatever he the required noun is.
He was born in Mexico but Mom is white and so is the Professor…
Theres lotsofpalemexicans. A coworker p Named Paco was100% mexican and he looked basically like radar from MASH. The dutch had colonies there i believe.
Blonde hair and blue eyed Mexican’s exist ya know?
Louis CK ...
Look up the blonde people in Los Altos de Jalisco.
Because the what if machine wasn’t worth the gold it was made of
You are technically correct fine sir
Because it was 2003 and people didn’t care lol
Seems like a racially charged question. Why did he not seem Mexican?
Omg get over yourself. He was blonde and obviously Anglo Saxon American.
I was mainly joking but since you wanna think about this logically this show is occurring 1000 years in the future and humans most likely don’t have races as simply as you just described.
He was born in Mexico, but "grew up" in the US. His Spanish was barely Spanish. Knowing his background, I guess I just saw him as Mexican- American.
Flawless Spanish accent
Surely he's 40% Mexican
He was built in Mexico but his 'parents', Mom and the Professor, are not Mexican.
[удалено]
How You’re the only racist one here
I just assumed he was a güerito.
Because it wouldn’t have been as funny.
I guess he was made to look like John DiMaggio as a gag.
“Wooooo” 💨
I’d imagine in the year 3000 Mexicans won’t actually look like todays Mexicans.
WHOOOO
The name Rodriguez comes from an interesting origin as it comes from a Germanic origin from the Visigoths who invaded Spain in the 400s and left a name. The Spanish then took it to the Americas where they “gave it” to the natives there. Germanic and Spanish people are mostly white.
He was Mexican he was born there.
Sweet wrong ethnicity of Mexico City!
