War Room Lounge V44: Backup Whores, or Back Up, Whores?

[senri]

I just like tacos man

 

[Lead]

Of course. But prices here in Hawaii are generally the highest in the nation. Which is why I would be surprised if it’s more costly in PA or anywhere other than Alaska or maybe parts of CA.

I'll get back to you. I think its the case I mentioned where I get a meal and tag something else on. I know you can get four tacos for 4.28 here so I'm probably comparing incorrectly.

 

[Fawlty]

I call bullshit, no one would pay $10 for a Taco Bell meal lmao

Edit: I just looked it up, the Taco Bell by me for $5 has more Taco Bell food than any one person should eat, but I’ll admit to being able to eat twice that

Say you get a steak grilled stuffed burrito ($6ish), drink ($1+), and two tacos ($3?). That's over $10 I think, and it's a lot of food but not a crazy amount. Fast food is expensive as hell these days though. I remember one of my favorite lines from a guidebook author describing a town you could stay in, saying that if you're trying to save money you can eat at Taco Bell, where "for eight dollars you can kill two people." Not anymore imo.

I'm admittedly not as familiar or concerned with the softcore sector though.

When I was in Jr. high out in Cali, they still had a $0.59, $0.79, and $0.99 value menu.

Chili Cheese Burrito, imo.

Delicious but with serious gastric consequences.

Obviously I wouldn't eat it anymore, I'm 40 now. My diet is stricter than a 14th century nun.

I get to point and laugh at you for about another three weeks, old man (and I'll probably hurt my shoulder when I point).

 

[NoDak]

[Social Distance Warrior]

But seriously though, why would anyone go to Taco Bell to start their fast?

I doubt anyone else here has fasted for Ramadan but something tells me most of you, if you had to go 15 hours without eating or drinking anything, would not think "I really gotta get some Taco Bell in before its too late"

What would be your meal?

 

[Social Distance Warrior]

I agree. True Lies is a bit lighter, but that movie is awesome too. Due in no small part to the scene stealing Bill Paxton.

Total recall is probably his most overrated film. Never got the fascination with that movie

You know what isn't a thing here in Holland, but should be? Hot wings. Great beer, generally quite poor beer snacks.

Insane, but I'm not really in the frame of mind to explain why right now. It's a much smarter flick than it's been given credit for when taken at face value simply because it's an Arnold vehicle. This is a fucking masterpiece too.

At Taco Bell? Hardly ever eat there, I think its been years since I have. What would you recommend knowing it'd have to be halal?

Could falafel go with beer?

Spoiler: I'm still not over this. Like, really? That's a thing?
