Life is frustrating, but ordering Chipotle is worse.

11 Thoughts We All Have While Ordering Chipotle
Ben Gilbert

Burritos are life. How does one actually describe the satisfaction of ordering non-authentic Mexican food? It's impossible! And legend has it, there's a place where one can get the best burrito. It's Chipotle. There's only one problem; it's build-your-own-meal.

1. "Do I want to deal with the mess of a real burrito?"

Everything falls out, it breaks open, the salsa makes it soggy... Listen people! Burritos are messy! But a burrito bowl is just so unsatisfying. Oh, the internal battle...

2. "That chicken looks dry. That is chicken, right?"

I swear, all meat looks the same when it's been sitting out for two hours. And when you're standing in line with 20 people behind you and the guy is asking what meat you want, suddenly none of it looks appetizing.

3. "Will these beans haunt me later today?"

Sometimes we find ourselves in unprecedented situations. First dates, "sleep over," job interview and so on. Beans have been known to ruin these specific events. Do you foresee these events happening later?

4. "Wait, what kind of beans am I actually getting?"

This is when life starts to spiral downward. The guy is talking fast, you've never been here, and you aren't any kind of bean expert. Hail Mary, tell him you don't want the beans anymore!

5. Notices guacamole all over the kid's hands. "Is he going to change his gloves?"

There is something really odd about when you think about food touching. Especially when someone is preparing food. I mean, it's all going in the same places anyways. It still makes you cringe when you think about getting handed a burrito covered in guacamole you didn't order.

6. "Salsa or sour cream? Or both? Or guacamole?!"

You can have the best of both worlds, you can have the best of three worlds! But there's so many different salsas how will you ever choose?

7. "Guacamole is extra?!"

Wait, I have to pay extra for guacamole? What kind of place this is!?

8. "Jesus take the wheel."

Some people just hate places where you have to order food. Like Subway. I don't know what about it is just nerve-wracking. Everything looks the same, you are trying not to make the people in line mad, it's just a struggle.

9. "Boyfriend, please finish ordering for me."

The ultimate moment of defeat, when you've became so overwhelmed with the questions that finally ask your boyfriend to order for you. But in reality, it's just a trap to see if he really knows what you want on a burrito.

10. "No, don't order that! I don't like that!" or "Wow, he really knew what I wanted!"

This can end one of two ways. Your significant other either knows exactly what you want or he doesn't. This really is just a test of the relationship. This whole thing is a sham!

11. "This burrito was a mess."

Your initial instinct was correct, burritos are a complete mess and you just went through all that anxiety to have your hands covered in sour cream. Oh well, it builds character.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
