Last Tuesday I had to go to Target to pick up some crap. On my way out, I noticed that the "Chronic Tacos" location they were building had been finished and they were now doing the grand opening. Before they had finished, I vowed to myself that was the lamest thing ever and I wouldn't go there to buy tacos. As I was passing by, my innate curiosity got the best of me and I was drawn inside like the millennium falcon into the death star. Similar to my curiosity regarding the "Pepsi Summer Mix," I had to see just how far these people went into an ambiguous Mexican food for-white-people-that-smoke weed or know-someone-who-does motif. Again, I was not left disappointed with my findings. Trucker hats, nautical stars, that logo with the two naked girls sitting down and facing each other, and Cadillac emblems abounded in all their glory, and that was just on the drink cups. It was also funny to me all the equipment they were using, presses to warm the tortillas, a specified quesidilla press, and the taco-making assembly-line concept that was obviously "borrowed" from chipotle.
Actually though, for white person tacos, they were actually really good. Oh yeah, and on Taco Tuesdays, they have "fatty" tacos.

- I'm a registered nurse, working at Long Beach Memorial. I enjoy my job very much, though it can be very stressful and difficult at times. In my free time, I read, throw frisbees, and try to score goals for my roller hockey team. I read every piece of information available that pertains to the LA Kings, I rip movies to my hard drive to watch them later, and I love Xbox live. I recently bought a new bike that I pedal around all the time; if you're ever in Long Beach look for me. I love drinking coffee and beer, occasionally to the point of excess, but I make it a point to always have fun.
