Gonna need some help with this one please
|
There have been a lot of food trucks in the area since the hurricanes hit last year. This one though, I'm going to need some help to understand what the words mean on the top of this trailer...
 Any clues? lol I'm afraid to stop and ask cuz I don't want my toes to end up in tomorrow's tacos. Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you. Last bumped on Apr 14, 2021, 10:53:35 AM

Heh, I love these. Not-so-subtle mockery of dumb folks of the fairer complexion...
Spoiler
As I suspected, it's phonetic punning and written so that English speakers can pronounce the names 'correctly'. (very much not correctly) Huevitos con frijolitos Web Eat Toes Come Free Hole Eat Toes. More examples at: https://www.mjhideout.com/forum/threads/spanish-4-gringos.13191/ https://linktr.ee/wjameschan -- everything I've ever done worth talking about, and even that is debatable.

Ok that's fucking hilarious and brilliant but also dumb. Don't explain what those words are there for on a food truck and dumb ass rednecks like myself just gonna assume you got toe meat in the food. xD
I'll sleep soundly tonight, thank you. Edit: I see from your edit its working as intended. lol Just a lowly standard player. May RNGesus be with you. Last edited by Shovelcut#3450 on Apr 7, 2021, 12:28:29 AM

If you're thinking of trying their food, I encourage you to give your money instead to a business that doesn't despise you and mock you. This is a rule I have tried hard to adhere to as well, resulting in the withholding or withdrawal of my money from many places over the years.

" Or you could have a chuckle along with the rest of the world and go eat some potentially really tasty comida. For a while there was a Greek cafe near campus and they had a poster outside (provided through one of their suppliers) that showed a pretty blonde scarfing down a gyro captioned, "They taste better when you say 'Yee-ro'". You could, I suppose, tie yourself into a slipknot trying to take offence at the ad's gentle correction and glamour shot. Or you could just get over yourself and go in and get a loaded gyro fit for a king, some Greek fries, and a salad for six bux. Same general idea. The sign is tongue-in-cheek and 99.999% I guarantee you the proprietors of the hot cart are NOT out to rub your nose in anything worse than a generous scoop of salsa verde.

Hardest lesson of life: it's the ones who hide their mockery of others that really mean it. Especially if they manage hide it even from themselves. For some reason, there's a certain way of saying 'sir' or 'ma'am' in an American accent that just comes across as utter loathing. OTOH I feel bad for anyone who has to use 'sir' or 'ma'am' in their interaction with other meatbags sooo...can't say that I blame them.
Fuckin' A though, I'd take this over most restaurant Mexican any day. I'm sort of sad that by the time Food Truck culture made it to Australia, it was hipster as fuck, with hipster-targeted prices to match. Now there's a business model despising and mocking its clientele... https://linktr.ee/wjameschan -- everything I've ever done worth talking about, and even that is debatable.

" Or, you could see that they are mocking los gringos estupidos while also taking their money, and decide that you would prefer not to support such people, and find a restaurant that serves equally tasty food and does not mock you. That is all. Each person can decide which they prefer to do. |

" Who in their right mind would prefer to think the worst of people? |
|
" Because that's what has become of the world in which we live. Plenty of examples of businesses (to ray nothing of random folks) who will happily mock and despise others, all while preaching "muh diversity." I have stopped contirbuting to the economies of people who scorn and despise me and mine, often simply for the color of my skin. ='[.]'= =^[.]^= basic (happy/amused) cheetahmoticon: Whiskers/eye/tear-streak/nose/tear-streak/eye/

" I'm not trying to imply that there isn't often reason to think the worst of people. I'm autistic and my natural instinct is a naive childlike inclination to trust everyone I come across. Nearly half a century's worth of mostly negative experience has taught me however that I can't survive in society with that mindset, so I've had to learn (albeit slowly and often the hard way) to actually be extremely cynical and distrustful of humans. I no longer trust anyone. So like Mardonius_Corvinus, I too am suspicious of their motives. Life has taught me to think this way. But I'd definitely prefer to think the way I did when I was younger. I was much happier then. |
