Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

If Jesse gets lunch from Chipotle, consider me freaked the fuck out.

Yeah, I'm like "OK, I don't know from cock except the occasional on-screen porn, but...seriously? Aren't burritos usually...girthier?"

Seconded.

The burrito has suffered the same overinflation that most food products have once they are snapped up by franchises.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I like to think they simply found it impossible to resist the constant stream of "Increase the size of your burrito!" spam.

I did my taxes last night, and as I'm getting a nice refund, I'm splurging on myself a bit.

Anyone want to offer an opinion on this jacket? [link]

Other than my leather jacket, I don't have a casual jacket that's not clearly designed for running/hiking/skiing. And I don't really want to look like a complete touron in Spain (although I suspect I will anyway). It's a bit steep, but I suspect it'll last for several years.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

It is not Chipotle! It is a local place that describes this size as "disturbingly small." Which, sure, for a burrito. But it turns out to be just right for a meal!

In my experience, that can vary quite a bit, dear.

And that's how the conversation got started!

I was about to say you could probably find something just as good much cheaper at a department store clearance or Marshall's or something, it being the end of "winter season" (for stores if not normal people!), but then I saw it was waterproofed, so that's probably awesome.

My replacement card has not shown up (it's expiring in a couple months and they claim I should have gotten it by now.) It hasn't been activated, there are no weird charges, but I'm a bit concerned.

Oh, when/where are you going to Spain?? I like that style of jacket.

It's actually a really cool Portland company, with interesting designs, and they use a lot of organic materials. The pants I got from them a few years ago have really stood up.

Two weeks! Yikes, I need to finish making hostal reservations!
