I like Illegal P's but feel like their salsa is very inferior to others. They make up with it though in their Queso.

If you want true burrito heaven though, Freebirds is the gold standard. Wish they had one here.

That’s very true. I think their meats and queso are the best, but their salsa is just a bit meh.

I'd put Zia's above Qdoba in your list @JWK but not like many people here have ever ventured outside of the front range to try burritos.

If you ever come to Durango I'll take you.

@JWK Why Cafe Rio so low? I haven't had their food, but one of my friends is absolutely insane about it. Still no Yolanda's?

I think Abusement Park and I talked about this in the past that their green chile is very average. Whatever they do for their fish tacos though is amazing and the sauce they put on it. Destroys Rubio's and other places I've had when it came to their fish tacos.

Finally got internet in my apartment yesterday. I've spent the better part of today trying to get my damn DNS thing to work so I can get around the many blackouts. Somehow it works on the laptop (I think), but the Xbox isn't having any of it.

Do you have a chromecast? I have a stupidly simple method I can send you if you do. I've paid for NHLTV before, but sadly free services give better broadcast, reliability, and cross-device streaming compared to their site.

This is a first for me. After this past weekend's adventures two of the women were left standing and one of them just asked me out for Saturday. I ignored texting her until Wednesday, I knew she was into me and didn't need to mess up that vibe. Hit her up yesterday for her weekend plans, got a 'maybe', ignored it, then she back pedaled today.

I used to think it was important to stay in communication with someone, but sure doesn't seem that way.

Texting may be the #1 absolute worst way of communicating when you’re just starting to get to know someone. I know it’s a norm in our society but I think you’d do yourself a lot of favors being old-fashioned in this instance.

That's the trap we all fall into, too busy to get together more than once a week and too interested to not see what's going on.

The Avalanche tweeted about Columbine an hour ago and two (2) people have replied "What happened?".

Normally on something that is as obtuse as that, I would post a funny facepalm GIF...but not this.

That's just absolutely terrible. That whole ordeal is still just plain reprehensible, as is every school/mass shooting that happened after that.

Kids/young men & women were taken from this earth way too soon, and those who survived have had to go through something that they shouldn't have had to go through. And while I don't live in Colorado, nor have any familial ties to anyone who went through that tragedy, every year my heart aches on this day (as well as on 12/14...that's a very tear-filled day).

Rest in Peace to those who lost their lives that day, and for those who are still searching for some semblance of peace in their lives 19 years late, I hope every day that your search finds its end.

I absolutely loathe texting anyone who you're just meet or are potentially trying to date. I'd rather meet up in person every single time that I'm just texting back in forth with a girl. The mind games texting makes you play are so dumb.

Rest assured that I do not wish to make light of the situation. Turns out both those were probably children, clueless as ever.

Now, I also feel like there would be something to be said about our thoughts and prayers echo chamber culture, but since I know there may be people here personally affected by the events, this isn't the day for it.

I've never been a big fan of EDM, but this guy, I'd argue got the ball rolling with that trend. I don't know how big he was in the grand scale of things internationally, but as a Swede, he had some absolutely giant hits in Finland. It's cliché but I'll take tonight and listen to some of them.

He was huge here in the US. “Wake me up” and “Levels” got played all the time.

Burritos rank

Illegal Pete’s > Rubio’s > Qdoba > Chipotle > Costa Vida > Santiago’s > Taco Bell > Renegade Burrito/Big City Burrito > Cafe Rio > McDonald’s $1 sausage burrito > Jus Burritos

@JWK on twitter if there’s concerns and throw some insults in there too so that @ can be freed

Qdoba’s chicken is nasty.

Chipotle has gone downhill, but I still like their hot salsa.

There are a few on that list that I’ve never tried.
