Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

So a rl friend and I decided to do our normal weekly taco bell routine, and decided to try to figure out how much we usually spend a week on just taco bell

Taco bell is like our "Hangout" spot, where we get together and talk about FFXI and be the biggest nerds ever, hopefully if i can manage to convince the lady to start up FFXI, my life would be close to perfect.

So anyway, looking back on all my receipts from the past 7 days, I spent a grand total of $121. Which is cheap, you can buy like a million tacos for three bucks....(Exaggerating of course). Taco bell is so cheap...I love how i can eat constant taco bell without gaining weight, although... probably gonna have some health issues in the future... but mmm so good... ive tried everything on the menu...yes... crunchwraps...

I mentioned earlier my preference for real mexican food, unfortunately, the only "mexican" resteraunt in this area is run by some jamaican guy and the menus food is as price jacked as a RMT controlled Auction House. So taco bell is the next best thing...

Plus, the budget doesn't really call for 40 dollar Tacos (Exaggerating of course), im trying to save for my wedding in February. Can you imagine a whole dinner at a real mexican resteraunt is about the same as ONE bouquet of flowers... good golly... *watches a fly sail out of my wallet*

Ok 2 points. First point, don't worry the whole "I love how i can eat constant taco bell without gaining weight" thing will stop once you start hitting the 30's.

Second point, the 2 posts absolutely do not go together. I'm saving for my wedding but I spend $121 a week on Taco Shit. Seriously? That $121 is nearly half of your wedding invites. You might want to sit down and have a look at other areas of your life if you think that this is saving.

Also, the other taco place is too expensive but you're spending $121 at Taco Shit? I'd rather eat 1/2 as much and get better food by going to the other place. Quality over quantity any day. But as everyone else has said, making your own is the way to go and you could probably make them better AND cheaper........AND healthier.....which is really something you need to start thinking of if you are going to be responsible enough to get married. You do want to be around for many many years with your loved ones right? Just because Taco Shit isn't putting on any weight doesn't mean its not clogging those arteries inside.

ONE- 430 calories (and we know people don't eat just one)

28 grams of FAT (thats almost 1/2 of your daily intake so if you eat 2 chalupas you better be eating raw veges for the rest of the day)

780 mg of sodium (Salt is bad....learn to cut down on salt now and save yourself a headache later because YOU WILL be told to cut down on your salt at some point in your life)

Taco Shit

My family likes to use the more family-friendly "Taco Smell," but the sentiment is the same. And it rhymes.

Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

Thanks mom, i haven't gotten a good scolding in awhile. (Not being sarcastic lol)

But yeah, i really should cut down on the spending (and taco eating). Guess i've just been abusing all the money ive been getting since my promotion lol. Although now that the receipts are piling up... it will begin to open my eyes sooner or later... its the young person's ignorance i swear... /cry

I sure will miss being young once i get older lol, probably regret alot of decisions i made. Like weekly Taco bell...

but they really should stop taunting me with their lowering prices of EVERYTHING. and with my work scheduele i really have no time to do anythning not fast food, since we have this conveniently placed taco bell in the food court of my store.

Help me @_@

The funny thing is, I was told the other day to consider eating MORE salt! It's not exactly the sort of medical advice you might expect, but I'm far away from having high blood pressure...

Well I apologize if it came off as a scolding. I meant it more as some motherly advise. At least you took the time to tally up a weeks reciepts and realize how much you were throwing away, thats a step in the right direction!

I bet you made a great mother to your kids! (not being sarcastic, only problem via communicating on forums/online is that you can never tell the person's tone/mood, so i always find myself clarifying it because people often take it the wrong way ><)


...and i think i Have a box of frozen like chicken taquitos in the garage freezer.

So I had to knock 500 times, and I had to knock 500 more, so I had to knock 1000 times before someone answered the door.

Man if you wanted in that badly should have rung the doorbell. Could have pressed it 5x as fast and with less effort than knocking. Knocking is so outdated =P



As far as tacos/mexican foods goes.... i basically live in northern Mexico >.>
Anyone ever been to San Antonio?

You can drive one mile in any direction and see a Taqueria Jalisco. And some whataburgers XD.
Yeah there are some taco bells near by.... yeah sure they are nice everynow and then. But real Mexican restaurants are where the good food is at. If you have ever been to a Taqueria Jalisco youll know its pretty decent/cheap. Food is always good.

Re: Official bored at work / just shooting the shit / no rails to derail thread

Forums are my game, and work filters prevent the latter.
