That didn’t cause a significant economic downturn, though.

What the fuck did they expect?

I’ve always liked the number nine because it feels round. Not the shape, mind you. The concept of nine.

I’ll always remember the first time I went to Chipotle. I guess it must have still been a regional thing at the time because I had never heard of it or been to one, so I wasn’t familiar with how it worked. Someone I had just started dating brought me there.

There was a small menu on the wall in the area where you wait in line. It listed things like chicken burrito, bean burrito, etc, along with ingredients for each of those. So I thought, “Alright. Bean burrito sounds good.”

It’s my turn to order. I asked for the bean burrito. They stare at me and I stare at them.

“No, but what do you want on it?”

-“All the things for the bean burrito.”

“I need to know what you want on it.”

-“What? Just the regular. It’s on the sign there.”

I have returned to Chipotle only once because that same person I was dating at the time wanted to go. I didn’t want to deal with the burrito process, so I just ordered rice.

They didn’t specify that there was cilantro in the rice back then. I’ve got that cilantro equals soap gene.

I have never returned to a Chipotle.

Thank you for reading my mundane story.

lol, cheap

There are some places where no restaurants are cheap. The taco carts are cheap. But if you want to sit down… Uh uh.

Less secure than Signal.

No episode hit harder than Jurassic Bark. Possibly no episode of any show ever. Except maybe the MASH finale. Maybe.

Queen’s Don’t Stop Me Now

I’d recommend Seattle, but the police here are problematic.

Baltimore is certainly an unusual choice.

They are. Trump’s DOJ is trying to charge people with terrorism and hate crimes for defacing a Tesla.

He wants measles parties like we had chicken pox parties. Except kids didn’t really die of chickenpox, but they will die of measles.

Better to brand something like “CONTAGION”.

Well fuck that.

Putin said the world should not take Trump’s comments lightly and claimed Moscow would be ready to protect its interests in the Arctic if NATO nations expand their territory in the region.

Greenland is already a part of NATO. The US owning it would not expand NATO territory.

I’d just like to point out that there is no “taste of fish”. Different species can taste very different from one another.

Cod is the most popular among people who otherwise don’t eat much fish because it is versatile and light on flavor. Salmon is one of the more flavorful fish, so I’m not sure what was up with the salmon you had. Mackerel is very flavorful (the oily fishes in general are), which you may or may not like. Sole or flounder are also popular among the lighter flavored fish, and easy to cook. You might like them battered and fried. You should try fresh tuna as well.

I also am a big fan of sole a la meunier (with butter, parsley, lemon, and capers). I’d also recommend trying teriyaki salmon. I like to make fish chowder with cod. Mackerel I tend to make shioyaki style (while baked with a bunch of salt, served with lemon or ponzu).

Also ivy. A curse on whoever first brought English ivy to the Americas.

Thank you! Time to lure some cats to the yard.

Fake but amusing.

They’re long and yellow with green striations. Tend to be mixed in with the other squash.
