Thanks again, btw if I didn’t mention that earlier.  Is this a good time to remind you that you’re on blood thinners, thus making it feel slightly better to you? No? Ok.

Yeah, I just keep my mouth shut now

That's a story time waiting to happen, I think.

But yeah, after spending three days basically "at leisure" in a slow roast in shadeless, wind-less environs with limited cool hydration available I've realized I'm too old to find cooking myself pleasurable. All respect to you for making a living in the heat.

I'm firmly starting to believe this one.. I'm starting to think that Taco Bell uses a specific system for their drive thru portion of the restaurant. I think that no matter what you order, you're going to get the wrong items..

Now, hear me out.. What if they just make random foods and throw it in your bag and weigh the bag before they hand it to you.. Like, they have a scale system of some sorts. If you purchase $10 worth of food, they start loading random food into your bag until it reaches $10 worth it's weight in Taco Bell..

Thoughts?

"It's all the same food in a different wrapper, and looks the same on the way out as it did on the way in"

I've heard legend of the Pope Yes karma, but this one is new to me. I must be completely neutral with the universe, because the karma has never blessed me or cursed me, always end up with exactly what I order.
