The "I Didn't Comment in Another Thread" Thread

I mean .... just wrapping up other food in a tortilla doesn't make it acceptable.

My city's annual downtown taco crawl has confirmed that truism. An Indian place I normally quite enjoy one year gave us "chicken korma tacos" which were just their (perfectly nice) korma on cold plain corn tortillas. Which didn't work well at all.

OTOH, most of the other restaurants do a much better job.

Just because something can be broken, doesn't mean it's broken to begin with.

Wow. There was a thread that I would have participated in a couple of weeks ago if I had known it had existed. I'm kind of glad that I missed out, though.

Look, I'm telling you, women's hemlines correlate precisely to the activity of sunspots! If we can shave just two inches off of women's hemlines by Friday, it will cause a coronal mass ejection that will cause massive power disruptions across the East Coast of the United States, during which we can hit the Federal Reserve Building downtown and steal all of the bearer bonds! I have all the calculations here, somewhere, we just need a hacker guy and a team of East German mercenaries...

Well, technically... yes, that's exactly right... You're attempting to turn something that's entirely a matter of degrees into a binary yes/no paradigm where the dividing lines are arbitrarily set by your personal preferences.

Is there a thread on here that doesn't apply too?

Yup, that one right over there ---> Oh, wait... no... That was an actual thread stuck to my monitor screen. Nevermind.
