By saying the words "Fresh" 5 billion times Chipotle convinced fat and stupid people that they where healthy.

Hahahaha same thing with Coke and their Vitamin Water. They released a statement to the effect of, "No reasonable person would assume that Vitamin Water was a healthy alternative to soda."

Here is my "Fresh Organic Green Salad" *is a bowl of cheese and knives*

Chipotle finally made it out here a few years ago so I went to check it out. Triple the price and 1/3 the portions compared to my local hole in the wall Mexican place. Plus the food was bland as gently caress. I don't get it. Real Mexican restaurants and fake-Americanized Mexican restaurants are both better and cheaper than that shithole.

chipotle is good by the standards of "cheap poo poo you can pick up on your lunch break", especially if you're in some flyover shithole where real mexican places are nonexistent/terrible, otherwise there's no excuse

More importantly, does anyone know when Radio Shack began? Ancient Egyptians probably passed by a Radio Shack on their way back and forth from building the pyramids and wondered how a business without any customers stays open.

Chipotle is the Starbucks of fast food. It's "okay" and "not bad" and "at least it's not McDonalds right?" Also, "costs more, but you know you're getting what you paid for"- no, idiot, it's the same poo poo in a shiny wrapper, you sucker.

A McDouble for a 1.00 is getting what you paid for.

I needed a cheap phone case so I stopped at K-Mart since it was the closest. It took me a good five minutes of walking around the store to find the electronics department. It was tucked over in a far corner and mostly barren. A single rack of DVDs, a few Blu-rays, and three phone cases, each for the 5S, which won't fit my phone. Otherwise there were a few miscellaneous cord things (most for outdated models) and a glut of supplies for handset phones, extension cords and shoulder rests and things like that. Most of the area was occupied by dryers and a few mattresses. There were no TVs on display, no video games or accessories of any kind. The whole store had probably less than a dozen people in it, mid-day on a weekday. Everyone in the store seemed to be there just to buy one or two things, which makes me think we all ended up there not because we had planned to go to K-Mart, but just because it was there.

kind of funny how, twitter for example, they had a good idea and scaled it well. but that doesn't mean anything more than they had a good idea and were lucky. and they turn to jack whatshisface as if he has answers, really they're just terrified that people will realize the emperor has no clothes and its all worthless. same as all those other stupid companies. read more of my opinions at my blogspot.com

i got chipotle last week with chicken meat and there was one chunk of chicken meat that was raw and uncooked and i didn't notice it until i put it in my mouth it was like a snail

i spit it out and it was a cube of chicken like all the others, but pink and gross

it makes me shiver remembering it

never again

Blackberry is the betamax of smart phones. People will tell you it's intrinsically better than Apple or Android somehow, but they're just desperately trying to justify their bad purchasing decision.

RIM (Blackberry) was the sweetheart of Canadas tech industry and they were working so hard on BBOS 10.

I was telling everyone "they should really start working on this android platform and port their apps over, there's no room for their OS".

And people said "shut up you are a dumb rear end in a top hat"

Now here it is years later, Blackberry has released an android phone in a desperate attempt to still exist, and everyone still thinks I'm a dumb rear end in a top hat.
