Sorry, only Slavic languages here. I don't know none of that spanish.

The first part looks like "I have to go sleep", the start of the second part looks like "Don't touch our" (or maybe "You may touch our"). Based on similarity to partly-remembered Spanish. I'm sure someone who's fluent (like presumably Icy) can help if it's close enough, otherwise I don't know if there are any Portuguese speakers on the board?

Edit: Hmm, on second thought, teño doesn't look like Portuguese. Now I'm confused, because the google translator does handle deixa as Portuguese but not as Spanish.

dola, herd, I'm pretty sure that's Portuguese, not Spanish.

It is definitely not Spanish although the "ñ" is an indication towards Spain...(I know it because I have one on my last name ;))

I think it's catalan not spanish, but since I'm fluent in spanish I would say the translation is something like that :

'I've got to go to sleep, stop touching my? balls, moooonkey"

That sounds like Portuguese/Brasilian or mybe from Galicia (Spanish region located at the norwest, near Portugal. Apart from the official Spanish, Galicians use also a second laguage, mix of Spanish and Portuguese). Anyway it is slang so it's not easy to do an exact translation to english, BreizhManu translation was fine :)

"collons" is said "cojones" in Spanish and means nuts, balls, etc

don't know how to translate the "y tu puta", if it was a question it could be "what about you whore ?" but here I don't get it, so you'll have to wait for Icy.

Else, looks like a very friendly guy.

BreizhManu translation was fine again, good job :)
About "y tu puta" you're right again, he means "what about you whore?" he missed the ¿?.
Seems he is not so cultured and his way of speaking makes me think he is a kid, the way he uses that slang is not how adults do.

What is this Qwikshot? private messages?

I had a spanish owner send me an e-mail and ask me why I had wetbacks on my team. At that point in time, I was kind of going WTF? why would he bring this up?

Made me laugh, then I realized, I won a transfer he was bidding on =)

The best thing to do with this kind of guys is just ignore them, they will get bored after some time.

The jajaja part is just him laughing (like hahaha), and the last word means worse than whore...more like female dog.

that would be perra or guarra, puta is whore

I guess I am just looking at it from a more slang Mexican side. Most people I know and run into use it in the context as female dog. guess more interchangeable down here.

And for people that ask, I run into them as part of my work.
