Just say Taco Bell, there is no other Mexican drive through unless you live in Mexico.

There's a drive through chain owned and operated entirely by Mexicans in my city that's open 24/7 and has fuckin' awesome food. It's incredible. Also probably a big drug front but whatever

I was taken to a Chipotle in 2007. Never really felt like going back. It's nice that they found their niche with the "less depressing fast food place to take your lunch break" crowd. Am I missing out? Have they improved?

Also I'm surprised it took this long for a "praying for safety" joke

I was tucking into a nice baloney sandwich at my new babysitters house and her mildly retarded son got real mad and said "WE PRAY BEFORE WE EAT". Needless to say I'm a rational atheist to this very day...

Nah, that's their niche--just widely available even in buttfuck-iowa, clean and quick. I ended up going out to one last week after not having been to one for 2 years because my only other option nearby was KFC.

But I think they've gotten more expensive and their portions have gone way down since 2007 which was about the last time I had them semi-often. I remember them being pretty huge back in college, but now they're about the same size as my fist and more expensive. usually you can get a burrito the size of your forearm for about the same price from almost any other place so it's not worth going back provided theres other options.

anyways, if you want to see family praying and religious people over "mexican" food, go to a Cafe Rio. holy poo poo that place is like an even whiter version of chipotle

The best feeling is when a group sits down to eat and someone says "Let's say grace.", quickly followed by everyone else saying "Nope!" and immediately tearing into their food.

We evolved great intelligence relative to the rest of the animal kingdom. So we would come to reflect upon our own mortality and question what the point of it all really was.

What was the greater purpose of life and what happened after death? How did it all come to be? When we could find no answers to these difficult questions we despaired... and as an answer to this despair we came up with gods and religion. They became the answers we sought after and we would seek comfort knowing that there would be something beyond death, a continuation... We chose to believe that these godly beings had grand designs and plans for us all, a greater purpose for the world and for life itself - they became a substitute for everything we could not understand.

God and the afterlife is a psychological defense against the dire realization that life is pointless and that death is the permanent destruction of your self, that existance is limited and that we're all going to disappear eventually

That is where you are wrong.

you know, it makes it really inconvenient for me to lecture religious people about their faith's tendency for social intolerance when there are douche-nozzle atheists acting equally as intolerant coming from the opposite direction


edit: lol evidently i hit a nerve, sweet job probating me for the exact length of time I was at work, btw

Who the hell prays for a fast food meal? I just sat and stared at them as they did it, I hope they feel ashamed. I also threw out half my burrito and told a homeless guy I had no money as I walked out.

i get the feeling you're not really on board with shaming these people

they should for real be shamed and i say that 100% without irony

i think that's really cool and more people should do it. as an atheist, i think religion is super neat and i wish more people took faith as seriously as those people clearly do. sometimes i pray before meals even though i don't believe in god, because it's a decent and non-douchey thing to do. try living in the real world with the rest of us, OP, you might find you enjoy it :)

Should have drawn an inverted cross on your forehead with guacamole, rolled your eyes back into your head, raised your arms, and began chanting loudly in latin before finishing your burrito op.
