i'm pretty much primarily consumed with finding good hamburgers and tex-mex...bbq is just not something that i really quest for.

but the franklin's thing is a serious problem, it seems like so many people here have just moved here. so they act like verything they go to has been there forever when in reality most of it has been hera about five years and all the stuff i fucking remember has closed down or become compromised it seems like the economy recovering means that we're getting even more fresh faced tourists coming to be young and retired every day and tbh a lot of them now aren't even the hip kids that want to be here to be hip. it's like they're just boring middle americans that come here because it's so cool and they saw about it on the teevee but they just live in the suburbs and go to ihop anyway

so yeah tacodeli makes me super mad lately and i had a very bad experience recently

i mean the food was good but 15 dollars for 3 fancy ass tacos that were equivalent to a great truck with 2 dollar tacos? eat my DIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK AND GET OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUT

I haven't been in a long while, it was like $2/taco last time I was there. I do and will stick with Torchy's, as overpriced as it is.

Except the Guadalupe location, fuck that noise.

[Trotskilicious]

This is how I feel without tamale house in my life

seriously what tacos were these i mean i dunno i ordered three things they were small and my bill was 15 dollars

i spend 8 bucks on two tacos and it's a lot of food. i'm down with torchy's. the green chile pork is plenty authentic and i even like some of their white trash tex mex touches like the queso covered chicken strip

[sppunk]

Cow Bell's is mine, but I'd just as much get a Whataburger jalapeño w/ cheese.

[Trotskilicious]

i've never been to that place, never heard of it actually

keep in mind i was going to mighty fine weekly but that's only because top notch and whataburger were too far away (seriously the only place in austin that was 15 minutes from a WB)

Had a guy from Bastrop claim he was an Austin native once. That was good.

[Trotskilicious]

i know a dude from bastrop that calls bastrop and i give him cred for being local

[Trotskilicious]

not really trying to do the meat is murder thing, but anyone who tries to say it's alright to kill an animal because it was raised in a pasture before its totally unnecessary slaughter is just trying to lend moral justification for something they know is unjustifiable. i'm more understanding of people who say "yeah, killing animals is shitty but meat is delicious". at least they're in touch with the real reason they eat meat.

if you had any respect for animals that you eat, you wouldn't kill them for the mere luxury of having a steak dinner. so they lived on a pasture. who gives a shit. you're complicit in the needless killing of a sentient being. this perspective is just plain lazy as fuck since buying organic/grass-fed/free-range/whatever meat literally requires no sacrifice on your part, yet you believe it entitles you to some level of sanctimony when it means literally fuck-all.

[vixnix]

how are you hurting an animal if you treat it well and then kill it quickly and painlessly?

[Bread Regal]

would you be alright with me killing your children quickly and painlessly even though you gave them a good life?

get bent you cretin.

[Bread Regal]

i'd love to throw them on the spit.

give them a nice honey glaze.

[Bread Regal]

maybe make some head cheese out of their eyeballs and spinal cord. can't let it go to waste now. gotta show respect for god's creation.

[vixnix]

You didn't actually answer the question there little buddy...why not give it one more go, you know what they say....fourth time lucky

[Bread Regal]

I've used a rhetorical device known as "answering a question with a question", you dipshit.

WELL THE REAL REASON would be because of biological necessity

and ethics are something white people came up with

hurt is involved in the act of killing. the animal may experience pain in the afterlife. how do you know? the living animals around it get hurt too. stressed. pain. people doing the killing also get hurt. feelings. a good life and a quick death doesn't mean there is a void of hurt creation. animals grieve. maybe not all of them at our level. i'd call that hurt too.
