Hey everybody! I've been playing around with Photoshop for a long time now, and thought that I'd combine my love for the software with my undying hatred for a particular band (click the image for the full size):
You can also see this at the humor site Cracked.com. As much as I'd like to take full credit for the page, the flowchart was my only contribution. The rest the bitingly funny article was written by Furlinator.
So I saw Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen yesterday. It made me glad that I never saw the cartoon series growing up, because I'm pretty sure if I had I'd be even more enraged at how poorly it was written. I suppose there is a "plot" of sorts, but so much action is crammed into this movie that trying to squeeze a story in would distract the audience from all the product placements.
But today's long-overdue post isn't about the new Transformers, as I'm pretty sure I can't say anything that hasn't been said already. Today we'll be talking about a burrito, because Taco Bell, much like Michael Bay, has a tendency to come up with really bad ideas.
What I'm referring to is the Bacon Cheesy Potato Burrito. As you can probably guess, it's a beef burrito with cheese, potatos, bacon, and sour cream. When I first heard of this monstrosity, I wondered what the thought process was behind this product. I mean, how did the food scientists at Taco Bell pitch this idea to the marketing department?
"Okay, so everyone likes burritos, right?"
"Right."
"Well, we just thought it would be totally awesome if we crammed a baked potato in there."
"That sounds a lot like something a drunken frat boy would say as he was being escorted to the emergency room."
"Well, yeah, I guess you're right. We'll start ov-"
"And the drunken frat boy market is exactly who we're trying to reach. Have a bonus."
Congratulations, Taco Bell. You managed to make a product that even I, with my unhealthy addiction to fast food, refuse to eat.
Stumble It!
