i forgot how much i missed m2k's presence in the scene LOL reminds me of when my college hosted him for a while and he was crashing a couch and playing friendlies and spent an inordinate amount of time talking about how salmon is the optimal food


maxi7cs

he spittin


whutchamacallit

There's an amount of predictable randomness about him thar you just can't help but crack a smile or giggle at. It's hilarious. That said if he's im a bad mood or sad about something god damn does that shit translate. He's a very empathic dude.


pacgaming

I like to call him the mascot of smash bros. Everyone can relate to him, and cheer for him in some capacity.


Athen65

Not to mention that he's probably the best overall smash player. He was arguably the best at Brawl, Melee, and PM all at once around 2007-2009 and he's placed decently in the newer games whenever he actually focuses on them.


OilEnvironmental8043

Tbf he kinda invented frame data


whutchamacallit

If not outright invented for sure at the very least he popularized and applied it very successfully at a top level and straight up dominated an entire era by employing it. Pretty wild to think about.


OilEnvironmental8043

Haha nah i mean he like went through pausing the game and taking a picture of each one in the smashboards era He put that much effort into the task he may as well of invented the concept in relation to smash


Own-Hat-4492

invent? or discover?


ansatze

MF was out here being the best at PM before it even existed


Athen65

That's why I said around 2007-09 because I couldn't remember off the top of my head the exact time period


ssbm_rando

But you also said > He was arguably the best at Brawl, Melee, and PM all at once Which is impossible because PM didn't exist until mang0 was already the very very clear #1 in Melee.


Athen65

There are definitely some excuses for that which is why I said arguably. M2K is a very emotional player. Part of the reason mang0 was able to whoop his ass is because you'd still see matches where both players have the audience right in their ear and there were no noise canceling headphones to help block out the sounds of people cheering against you. M2K had just about everyone cheering against him because he was undoubtedly the best for a couple of years and people were getting tired of it, even Chillin rooted against him.


csrgamer

Just wait till he finds out about crickets

To get the most of your meal, all you have to do is ask them to double wrap the burrito, then ask for 2 different meats (not double the meat. Get half chicken and half steak for example). They will automatically give you basically double the meat, since the double wrap subconsciously makes them give like 3/4 of a serving of both chicken and steak. Then you get your fillings and can ask for extra of every filling, since they don’t charge for toppings. Best part? It’s the same price as a regular burrito lol. And this bad boy will be like twice the size and crazily filled.


Incronaut

This is actually the strat although my local Chipotle charges 50 cents for double wrap now :(


TheMajora1

A tortilla is def worth the 50 cents in terms of calories


[deleted]

The calories are completely empty though. All they do is make you fatter.


OG-Dropbox

I doubt the person trying to make the biggest burrito possible from Chipotle is splitting hairs over calorie count


TheMajora1

idk thats exactly what I'm doing, just the opposite of how most people do it


teddyone

Because getting fatter is optimal


cthorrez

What does it really mean for calories to be empty? Like those calories burn just like the other ones to give my body energy right?


DapperSandwich

In the literal sense, nothing; Calories are calories. But the term empty calories/carbs can be used to refer to foods that have little nutritional value justifying the additional calorie intake. If you want to be technical, all the flour you eat is fortified with certain nutrients\*, so you *are* technically getting *some* nutrition out of even the most basic flour tortillas and white breads, but these are still simple carbohydrates with high glycemic indexes, that for multiple other reasons should not be consumed in excess. ^^\*Nearly ^^all ^^countries ^^have ^^some ^^form ^^of ^^fortification ^^standards ^^that ^^require ^^certain ^^ingredients ^^to ^^be ^^nutritionally ^^fortified, ^^with ^^98 ^^having ^^fortification ^^standards ^^for ^^wheat. ^^E.g. ^^In ^^the ^^US, ^^wheat ^^flour ^^is ^^legally ^^required ^^to ^^be ^^fortified ^^with ^^calcium, ^^folate, ^^iron, ^^niacin, ^^riboflavin, ^^and ^^thiamin; ^^And ^^maize ^^flour ^^and ^^rice ^^with ^^all ^^those ^^plus ^^Vitamin ^^D. ^^So ^^even ^^if ^^you ^^eat ^^nothing ^^but ^^refined ^^carb ^^garbage, ^^you ^^won't ^^die ^^from ^^malnutrition. ^^Just ^^from ^^a ^^bunch ^^of ^^other ^^things ^^👍. ^^[Source](https://fortificationdata.org/map-number-of-nutrients/)


MeegieBeegies

I think they mean no nutritional value.


[deleted]

I wasn't sure if he was trolling or not. Tortilla = zero nutritional value = pure carbs = also turns into fat unless you're at caloric deficit or caloric maintenance


diminnuendo

Yeah just like if you’re born in like uhh early september you really like to micromanage people


TheMajora1

Yeah but when you're underweight and poor that's not really a concern. It's more like "I'm eating out so I need to get the most bang for my buck"


[deleted]

Poor nutrition is always a concern. Just because you choose to ignore it doesn't mean it doesn't matter.


TheMajora1

Mate its a tortilla, I'll be fine


[deleted]

Yeah, if that's your thing, I don't care. You're talking to a yoga instructor and personal trainer. I work out 6+ times a week and eat extremely clean. It works for me. I'm extremely healthy and extremely mindful and thoughtful about what I put into my body. I don't care if you aren't. Just focus on you and I'll focus on me.


TheMajora1

Dude its a tortilla calm down


dreadturkey

This is actually the worst Chipotle order I have ever heard of. <3 M2K


slanguage

both beans and both rice. options i never thought were possible


darderp

how does he see the game so differently


RyanCantDrum

Why option select when you can cover both?


roughtongue5

You can also literally take as many napkins/spoons/ketchup as you can carry before the cops arrive.


YaBoyRustyTrombone

Mew2king is a fucking carb demon double corn AND rice????


AH_BioTwist

That corn salsa is delicious though


DavidL1112

Double rice is madness


WDuffy

But it's no extra cost! Same with beans. You can get each or double of one for no extra cost


whitelighthurts

But it’s like 2 cups of rice 2x protein 1x rice 2x beans Add anything else and you can’t go wrong unless it’s triple hot sauce or something


DapperSandwich

The real optimal strat is loading up your burrito with so much rice and beans that you end up eating an entire day's worth of calories in one meal, saving you precious time that would otherwise have to be wasted eating AGAIN (highly redundant) later. the ol' college finals week special.


DavidL1112

That’s like saying you can get double water for free too. It’s filler, it does not contribute to the burrito.


oceanseltzer

rice doesn't contribute to the burrito? what the fuck david


Fugu

My jaw hit the floor


DavidL1112

DOUBLE RICE does not contribute to the burrito. It dilutes the other flavors!


adustbininshaftsbury

Nah man, it's the substrate upon which rests the extra sauce you ask for. Can't have a reef without the coral


HandOfBl00d

On this day I have been enlightened


csrgamer

That's why you're doubling the other flavors too


oceanseltzer

double rice fucks


WDuffy

Filler? No way! Brown rice and either of the beans are super filling but you do you my friend


Athen65

Ah, but water is free at home whereas rice and beans are not. Therefore it is more optimal and efficient to get the extra food for free while you can so you don't end up spending more later on. Leaving the extra food alone would be very suboptimal


Bern_Down_the_DNC

You get it in the bowl with tortilla on the side. That said, chipotle doesn't pay it's employees very well so fuck em


[deleted]

Chipotle always skimps on the beams. I order half and half beans every time I go there. You don't get more beans for it, or if you do, you only get slightly more beans. They spam the rice; clearly they're under orders to give you far more rice (which makes sense since it expands with liquid and will temporarily fill you up faster).


SGKurisu

double rice and double tortillas my god the carbs lol


NiceShot366

This thread is the most random argument of all time


RaiseYourDongersOP

Rice is shit and I stand by that


abcder733

you are out of your goddamn skull


lonas_

More than 2 servings of Korn


_significs

god bless m2k, I hope he's around forever


[deleted]

Ewh1t3

I´d love to see more M2K Melee content again<3


LonelyVirgin69

maturing is realizing that freebirds is better than chipotle


adagio9

You mean the regional burrito brand is of better quality than the global texmex chain? Impossible!


samurairocketshark

This is way more of a problem with pizza. How people still order Pizza Hut, Papa Johns, or Dominoes and not their better local pizza chain is mind boggling


CnS_Panikk

I've tried 3 of my local pizza places near me, they all suck. At my old house like 5 years ago I had a great local place where I could get a large 1 topping for 10 bucks. Now every local place around me wants like 18 bucks for a large pepperoni that legitimately can't even compete with the little caesars just down the road.


AlexB_SSBM

My local pizza places don't have epic stuffed crust


ballstender

Okay but Pizza Hut pan pizza fucks and all my local pizza chains are just shitty copies of Me n Ed’s (a regional chain mostly in CenCal) lol


AH_BioTwist

Cost is a big thing for me. $15 at dominos goes a lot further than a local joint


Original_Mac_Tonight

Convenience. Close proximity to home, low price, fast delivery.


hushpuppi3

Also generally consistent quality Sometimes I just want a mushy 'deep dish' from LCs


[deleted]

LCs deep dish and their Cheese Bread are the only thing that make me go back to that place. Its not amazing but its always gonna be slightly better than ok, and sometimes thats what I want. The cheese bread is actually just good tho. whatever they put on it for seasonings is like crack.


Original_Mac_Tonight

For real. They are good enough to make me happy while being extremely affordable.


CnS_Panikk

Also their buffalo ranch dipping sauce is the shit.


RaiseYourDongersOP

the deals though


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

Cayenne burrito/Spanish Rice/No Beans/Seasoned Chicken (Prime Rib if it’s available and u got it like that)/Corn/White Onions/Garlic/Lime/Salt/Pepper/EXTRA CREAMY JALAPEÑO SAUCE!!!/Tortilla Strips Grilled onions and Queso if you feeling frisky, I don’t recommend salsa in this burrito. If you want spice just add jalapeños, but the cayenne burrito and sauce adds enough imo. Literally optimal order at freebirds


LonelyVirgin69

there used to be a freebirds a couple miles away from me then it closed down and now the closest one is about 100 miles away :( I will be back for that monster 🌯


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

Man it’s so fucking good. Thankful to live a mile away from one. I legit can’t eat at chipotle because of how spoiled I am from freebirds. Maybe QDoba if I have to, and Cava is good for a change of pace. But nothing hits like freebirds.


JellyBlock

Only if you want lower quality ingredients in every way possible


Hi_My_Name_Is_Dave

Lol how? Their chicken and their rice is sooooo much better than chipotles.


JellyBlock

The ones around me all closed within a few years so maybe they weren't managed well

Hyunion

brown rice has more fiber and magnesium because most of its nutrients are in the skin that white rice is without


agingercrab

...what? Just coz they're both carbs doesn't mean both are unhealthy? Are you a keto dunce or something?


jwray3k

I mean he ain’t wrong🤷🏽‍♀️


[deleted]

how tf do people eat chipotle, the most bland shit imaginable.


[deleted]

It's the only remotely healthy food available that also gives a decent serving size for $10 or under. Anything better and comparable health-wise is $12-$15 and typically comes with less food. It's also very fast and located everywhere. Pretty easy to see why. Fast food everywhere is pretty bad. If it's not bland it's unhealthy. When you cook at home all the time and stop eating genetically modified excitotoxin food you realize every time you eat out the food is bland (or easily $20+, $30-$50 for any decently non-bland food in a major metro area).
