We don't have Chick-Fil-A's around here, either. When they were all over the news for being anti-gay I thought their name was pronounced Chick Phil Uh. It made a lot more sense when I finally heard it out loud, lol.

No chick fil a's?! No whataburgers?!
Edit: That anti gay shit was probably the stupidest shit ever. Being in Texas too, the ignorance was fierce.

Got Chick-Fil-A and Whataburger in my neck of the woods, just no In-N-Out or Fatburger 
Five Guys fills the hole somewhat.

We have basically nothing where I live. Closest Whataburger is in El Paso, which is like 90 minutes away. But we have Blake's Lottaburger, which is also pretty damn good.
I think the closest CFA is like an hour.
Closest In-n-Out is in Arizona somewhere I think (or maybe it's Vegas?). Five Guys I've had and it's ok. But that's like 1000 miles east of here. Never been Fatburger.
Seriously, we have nothing.
We do have a bunch of really good *actual* Mexican restaurants here. Local joints with drop-dead amazing food.

Now I can relate to that. If yall are ever in Portland, I can give you insider knowledge on where to find a good burrito. They're kinda rare here.
Also: if you've never tried Ethiopian food, you're doing yourself an injustice.
Where are you from man?

Reminds me to take you to eat real grill hamburgers near of the world trade center here in mexico, taste the heaven and you wont be able to eat for the entire freaking day and you will ask for more. Deserts after that feat of eating half of a cow? sure !

I'll never get NM's love of Blake's Lotaburger. It's solid, but not at all deserving of the cult status.
Can't beat all the Mexican/New Mexican joints all over the state. I'm craving a sopapilla now.
It really sucks when your GF is vegetarian
So that means you can't eat what you want? Fuck that brah.

There are some Blake's that are good, some just alright. Sort of like Whataburger
Depends who's making your food. Anyway, NM is all about Allsup's AM I RIGHT?! YourExWife

Mexican food.
If you ever swing through South Central New Mexico, you have to try this place. All the food is ridiculously good.
Personal favorites are stuffed sopapillas, fried avocados, chile rellenos, and carnitas. And their green chile sauces and stews are all just hnnnngggg...
Also, if Stinkles is listening, they have prickly pear margaritas from your dreams.

What haven't you gotten into it before?
I tend to get hyped for all the Halo games, jump in and play but I just suck. Love games with an objective in since but I am just not that great at shooters. I spent more time playing around in Forge making maps than I do actually playing the game.
Kinda hoping Halo 2 HD will do it since that was the last Halo I really got into without Forge distractions.

I know what you mean. I was excited as hell for Halo 2, played online for the first time, and got wrecked. I got really discouraged and gave up trying. Then the same thing happened with Halo 3. It wasn't until 2010 (right before Reach came out) that I finally took the time to get better at the game. I eventually figured things out and now I'm decent.
So yeah, give it a shot. You may of course be a hopeless case though, lol.
I remember during the peak of Halo3 my friend and I would have warm up matches almost every day and we got pretty serious about, at a pretty decent level. Even played the MLG playlist semi regularly.
Won't ever get back to that level - and don't want to tbh - but Halo 2/3 should recapture that competitiveness without the ultra try-hands being around, which is what H3 is like at the moment.
You going for that deal through GAME as well? I'm honestly thinking of dropping the white PS4 with Destiny to get the Xbone with Destiny and MCC.

My wife is veg, I feel your pain. Good news is, she likes the grilled cheese at whataburger, so I get my greasy burger fix.
Yeah, pre-ordered online for the deal and I am grabbing a used Kinect from CEX at £35.
Destiny is a huge game but all that Halo goodness for free is just too good to pass up.
Sweet! Will try it when I'm on a road trip to Phoenix or LA. Bookmarked the Yelp page too.

Convince me to keep my white Xbone preorder.
If you can not convince yourself, you probably shouldn't keep it. Your Avatar shows you like Halo. If this is not enough ...
Pretty much.
Convince me to keep my white Xbone preorder.
If you dont want it give it to me, Silky
Join the dark side!
I don't know, I was just thinking about getting one when Guardians came out.
I love Halo though. Master Chief is my hero.
I think it's the Destiny hype getting to me. It's still here though.
