I’m a guy, and sometimes it’s funny to just watch other guys do incredibly stupid things. Especially when you know it’s not too bad in the long term. I guess a few of the fitter guys in the gym were talking about how they could out-eat each other and THMFIC was egging them on. Three of them finally decided they’d have a burrito eating contest and I told Staff Sgt Evan Smith that he should enter as well. I even said I could sponsor him if he wanted so he joined and won. I think he’s probably the thinnest competitor. He was acting all cocky afterwards, but I think he ended up in great pain. He had just over three burritos.

Sean, who was number 2 and probably could have won if we hadn’t kept trying to make him laugh, didn’t look so good when he finished but he was drinking coke soon afterwards and was even talking about getting ice cream afterwards. He almost ate three complete burritos.

Orion, who is tall, lanky, and started out with a six-pack, ended up unable to turn from his waist. He looked stiff and walked downtown to try to loosen up. He was talking a lot of smack beforehand, but was reconsidering the wisdom of his actions when he sat down to two 1lb burritos.

And Matty “My people brought burritos to America” G, had three of the smallest burritos we saw tonight. 3 of them didn’t weigh as much of 2 of anyone else’s. He was the first one out.

It was one of the silliest things I’ve seen, but I remember going to the “eat all you can” buffet at Yam-Yam’s where we all ate so much that everyone else passed out and my girlfriend at that time forbade me from ever taking her there again. She felt bad for days from all the food. I, on the other hand, got a Perrier, jumped around to settle the food, and was ready to go by that evening.

While I probably don’t need a girlfriend right now because I have a brand new Rubik’s cube and can’t really remember how to solve the thing, but I realized that I haven’t had a girlfriend since I got a regular job. Perhaps that’s telling me something, but I think it’s just the man keeping me down.
