Apparently Emma Thompson will be taking her name off the petition for Polanski's release:
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Like a third of the calories are in the tortilla, anyway.
And if it's got sour cream and cheese, that's where the other two-thirds comes in.
That's three-thirds! Surely the meat and beans and lettuce have calories! OR DO THEY OMG.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Yeah, I started ordering the bowls after I figured that out. (Of course, I still get cheese & guac, but hey - no tortilla! I'm all virtuous and shit!)

Proteins and vegetables totally don't count.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
OK, I'm going to run (actually, walk) to downtown Evanston to the closest good restaurant for lunch, where I believe General Tso has some scallops for me....

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Every once in a while I get a big Taco Bell craving, and I ignore it as long as I can, and then I finally go get something and it is never quite what I wanted.
Yeah the secret of getting a taco bell thing that fufills the craving - include a plain beef taco in your order, the one they make with ultra-cheap ground beef. Not the wrap, or ultra-crunch or bostado or tacarito or whatever neologistic special they are promoting. Include anything else you want (including more beef tacos.) But get at least one beef taco because it is horribly unhealthy but in flavor is pretty much pure essence of taco bell. If what you are craving is not essence of taco bell than go someplace decent.

Hee. My favorite is the Grilled Stuft Burrito. And the double decker taco. The crunchwrap is pretty good too. But last night I passed a Taco Bell and got a craving but didn't want to spend a lot of money, so I bought the 99-cent chicken burrito and the 109-cent bean burrito. Good times.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I don't even know where the nearest Taco Bell is. We have Qdoba and Chipotle on the same street, a quarter mile apart, but I very rarely eat at either. I'm much more likely to go for regular Mexican, or eat at one of our local "fast" Tex Mex places.

Because books.
All I know is I am now craving Taco Bell. Damn it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Yeah, I started ordering the bowls after I figured that out. (Of course, I still get cheese & guac, but hey - no tortilla! I'm all virtuous and shit!)
That is totally what I do! I figure it's like getting a diet coke at McDonald's -- I know it doesn't negate the rest, but at least I'm not wasting calories on stuff I don't care about. I care deeply about cheese and guac.
