Mexican food is so complex it's crazy.

So Mexican food is pretty much one of the best things in this life, so much so that I believe there should be a latin saying reflecting this. "Mexicanos cane es veritat viver", maybe. I just made that up, but it could work.
I mean what can compete with avocado, spicy meat and cheese? Um nothing, that is what. I wouldn't even care if James Franco was around.



vs. Franco



Who are you again?

And the fact that it's good any time of day. Burrito breakfast? Yes please. Mid morning taco snack? Yip I think SO.
So clearly, we are sold on this. Burritos and tacos are the best food, ever. They are up there with flying jet planes and coconut rough.


But the question I find myself often wondering is, which is the superior form of these delicious foods? It is a complex and highly debatable topic, let alone the whole personal preference debockle.
Burritos are not crunchy, but that is almost to their benefit. Whereas tacos ARE, and that is one their total highlights, it can tend to simultaneously be their downfall! Like a drug addict, their high is their low, if you will.

Burritos are soft in their texture and delicious to the bite.




Tacos are crunchy and have PIZAZZ, like a crazed Mexican saying "Ambidi ambiti" (I recall this from ads of 3 amigos as a child, this is not proper spanish, I repeat) riding off into the sunset on his horse. BUT… the inners are hard to devour with this crunch exterior, without being a ravenous pig. Which actually, I'm OK with. So it's not that bad.



Hmmm. It's tough. And I've reached no conclusion. Tacos and burritos are like a metaphor for everything awesome in life. They are good, yet they have their down sides. But in this case they both have very little downers.

Also I was definitely lying with the whole Franco comparison. I would throw that taco in a bush or at the nearest passer by and headline for Franco in any scenario.

I know F-all about Politics and I'm not enrolled to vote. There I said it.

I'm just going to put myself out there and say I know f-all about politics. Okay even worse than that, to the disgust of probably many, I don't think I've voted ever.
Granted since my voting eligible years I've been mostly overseas, although I'm pretty sure I've been in the country for a few.
Actually I'm more than sure I definitely was.
And I am right now. But I just don't know anything about it all. I mean, I get a general vibe of what I think of different politicians demeanor on the news, every time I accidentally catch a news broadcast featuring a NZ politician. Whether they seem like a slimy stereotypical politico bastard (or bastard-ette), etc. whether they are funny looking, talk weirdly or talk like the opposite sex (Helen Clark).




But I am grossly uninformed on political issues. And even worse, I actually find American politics more interesting. Because it's a bit more accessible when the likes of Jon Stewart can break it down and make it comedic.

(The man)




In my defense I've always seen politics as a catty, bitchy (that might be the same as catty), immature, sneaky, and basically unhonourable business. The way they scrap and backstab each other in such a public arena is shameful and quite frankly reminds me of getting rejected by my peer group at intermediate when 80% of my friends started horrible rumors about me but then 10 days later asked me if I could be part of their 'best friend group' again. So why should I condone this kind of behavior in adults trying to appear responsible and in charge of all that tax money?

Well 'vote', some might say. And this could just be the answer! Oops.
And to be honest I think quite a few folks my age just pretend to know about politics to seem semi-intellectoid. They're usually the ones who wear glasses yet have perfectly adequate eyesight.



I'm basically admitting to being a really ignorant, slightly trivial person here, but alas, I probably am at times. Hey at least I know what's broke so I can fix it! Is there a "NZ politics for dummies"? Or a web site that breaks it down in between jokes? If so I'll be away laughing.

Until then, I'm just another ignorant non-voter who haters gonna hate. But after all this ranting I feel like I'm just gonna vote after all. I'm full of shit.
