I imagine that you have the brain the size of a pea when you started this thread: http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=101404 which gets moved because it’s not a “General Question” it’s pretty mundane. Oh then you get ticked off at a Moderator in MPSIMS where you should know by now that complaints go in here, THE PIT.
Great, you really want to know but it’s not like he closed the damn thing, it was felt it was better served in Mundane Pointless Stuff. I think a good majority of us would agree.
How soon does it sink in for you to realize that a moderator thinks that your stupid ass question does not belong in GQ? How long before you realize where and how to post stuff. And why is it such a big damn deal to begin with?
Sheesh.
I have seen some people slow to learn on the boards, those people are usually pardoned but your attempts at finding out about a fucking burrito has gone way over board.
I have an image of Muad’Dib standing in front of the frozen food fridge at a gas station at 3am, mumbling to himself and waving his arms around, then eventually taking a bean and beef burrito and a bean and cheese burrito and mushing them together, while the guy behind the bulletproof glass yells at him until he scampers off…
You people sicken me. Yes, you sicken me to my very soul. Do you not see that Maud’Dib needs our help? Do you not see the importance of a bean beef and cheese burrito in the grand scheme of things, or are your minds too small to grasp such a weighty concept? No, instead of helping this poor fellow, you mock him. Some (yes, I’m looking at you techchick have the nerve to explain that he coupd make his own bean beef and cheese burrito.
How does that help him? That doens’t answer the all-important question that has plagued the frozen food shoppers. He doesn’t care how to make one, we need to know why there aren’t any already made for us!
Yes, mock and torture this poor soul. Do not help him in his quest, for that is the way of the feeble minded. I for one, am right behind you Maud’Dib (but not too closely behind with all that burrito eating you’re doing) and after we solve this riddle we will go after the eternal question of “What ever happen to my Pudding Pops?!”
Olives are not acceptable unless you’re doing some sort of horrid fusion Mediterranean/Mexican thing.
Salsa is barely acceptible if pico de gallo (sp) can’t be had. The cheese may be either Cheddar, Montery Jack, Cheddar Jack, Queso Blanco or a very limited number of others. Mozzarella and < gag choke retch (for burrito purposes) > Bleu Cheese (I’ve seen it done. It was wrong!) will not be permitted.
Avacado slices or even guacamole will be permitted.
You also left out fresh, shredded lettuce (romaine or iceburg. Crispyness is key).
“Arbiter of Food,” indeed! You go into paroxysms about the lettuce * and completely forget to discuss the “beef”!*
Listening to you, some people might get the idea it is acceptable to use hamburger! Au Contraire! Regardless of what shudder Taco Bell would have you believe, the “beef” must be carne asada.
BTW IMHO the entire concept of a frozen “burrito” is roughly on a par with the idea of “instant” wine. You can call it a burrito, if you want, but that doesn’t make it one.
