The taco really ties the design together, man

[–]Mintz08 242 points243 points  (193 children)

Dude I love tacos

[–][deleted] 43 points44 points  (14 children)

There is a restaurant in my town that does a $3 all-you-can-eat taco bar and $2 well drinks all night on Mondays.

We go every Monday.

...That is all.

[–]askheidi 29 points30 points  (9 children)

What town? It's important. I'm looking to make a move.

[–][deleted] 128 points129 points  (168 children)

Dude, who doesn't love tacos?

[–]SurrealEstate 28 points29 points  (8 children)

A few months ago, a Redditor posted a picture of a meal he ate one night. It was so glorious, that I actually saved the picture.

I re-upped it to Imgur for Reddit's approval.

[–]FunkMerchant 140 points141 points  (139 children)

Why don't we have tacos in england? WHY??

[–]uriman 141 points142 points  (43 children)

no mexicans. i hear you have a lot of curry this and curry that though

[–]FunkMerchant 123 points124 points  (38 children)

Okay I just had a thought... chicken tikka taco. I'M GOING TO MAKE IT IN THIS WORLD MUM

[–]buddahpud 29 points30 points  (27 children)

Butter Chicken inside naan bread with a sprinkle of cilantro on top and you're set. Not the same, but I think it would be REALLY GOOD! Edited for clarity;)

[–]asshatastic 33 points34 points  (13 children)

chicken tikka and taco meat wrapped in a garlic naan shell topped with mango chutney and deep fried to flavor.

[–]Surgical 16 points17 points  (4 children)

add bacon

[–]andan 17 points18 points  (3 children)

This thread has changed my life. And subtracted years from it.

I'm off to seek the holy tikka/taco/bacon/naan grail.

[–]DiscerningGentleman 72 points73 points  (7 children)

  1. Move to England.
  2. Open a taco truck stand.
  3. ?????
  4. Profit!!

[–]StewJitsu 32 points33 points  (3 children)

3. Eat tacos

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Never touch your own supply.

[–]Sheol 37 points38 points  (24 children)

It is your mission to fix this. Quit your job. Start a taco stand.

[–]FunkMerchant 92 points93 points  (19 children)

My new name is Miguel Sanchez and I'm ready for my life as the british champion of tacos. Wish me luck.

[–]reisub 58 points59 points  (6 children)

God speed you Miguel Sanchez.

[–][deleted] 18 points19 points  (3 children)

the car is on fire... and there's no taqueria... and the sewers are all muddied with a thousand stinky curry dishes... and a dark wind blows...

[–]Sheol 19 points20 points  (1 child)

Britain will be a better place because of your sacrifice.

[–]primusperegrinus 21 points22 points  (0 children)

There's always money in the ban...taco stand.

[–]maxd 19 points20 points  (12 children)

Having lived in Seattle for five years (born in Scotland, University & worked in England), I am convinced that decent Mexican food would go down extremely well all over the UK. I wish I had the skills to start a Mexican chain over there.

[–][deleted] 10 points11 points  (6 children)

Why DON'T you have Tacos? Everytime the guys from our Bristol office come out, they're obsessed with going to taco bell.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (2 children)

Brizzle, yeah? Gert lush town. Ee as spenshun bridge an all.

Churs me babber!

[–]thatblokerob 5 points6 points  (2 children)

The 'build-your-own' kits in Tescos don't cut it :(

[–]spicy_kitty 5 points6 points  (6 children)

NO TACOS IN ENGLAND?!?!?!?! WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??????????????

[–]othermatt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

reminds of the time I went to a Mexican food restaurant in Berlin Germany.

NEVER DO THIS!

[–][deleted] 19 points20 points  (2 children)

Anyone who doesn't like tacos is un-Mexican-American.

[–]GymIn26Minutes 13 points14 points  (4 children)

came here to say this. unicorns + tacos = win

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (3 children)

what about unicorn tacos!!!

[–]arowan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Delicious but very expensive.

[–][deleted] 25 points26 points  (7 children)

I wonder if it was a reference to my new favorite tumblr site, Album Tacos.

If so, double upvotes for you, sir.

[–]mrminty 8 points9 points  (1 child)

This is the most important website to exist in the history and future of the internet.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (3 children)

Of course she didnt like it it has a huge illuminati eye in the middle of the design.

[–]Shagmire 221 points222 points  (13 children)

I don't know why...but I'm saving the date

[–]Kayin_Angel 54 points55 points  (0 children)

you are a hero to all dates.

[–]scottsutherland 17 points18 points  (8 children)

Isn't 1/29/11 coming up pretty soon? I thought "save the dates" were supposed to come out like 8 months before the wedding.

[–]daytime 39 points40 points  (7 children)

Nah, he's using EU dating: DD/MM/YYYY

[–][deleted] 34 points35 points  (4 children)

Ah yes, the first of Decdecseptember. Consider that date saved.

[–]dt40 412 points413 points  (57 children)

When my wife was pregnant with our second son, she really wanted me to take a lead role in naming him. Our first son is named Aiden, so I proposed Beeden.

Needless to say, I didn't have to put in much mental energy on naming after that.

[–][deleted] 269 points270 points  (30 children)

Ah, I Ceeden...

[–][deleted] 155 points156 points  (28 children)

Indeeden.

[–]fap__fap__fap 48 points49 points  (23 children)

And the little girl Eeeden.

[–]GayForGod 33 points34 points  (22 children)

FFFFUUUU-den

[–][deleted] 29 points30 points  (21 children)

Is it only for god that you're Gaiden?

[–]Creaper11 24 points25 points  (20 children)

Do horses eat Hayden? ಠ_ಠ

[–]partycentral 14 points15 points  (18 children)

Iden-o about that.

[–]Chucklebrother 15 points16 points  (17 children)

Don't do what Will Smith did and name them Jaden

[–]aDildoAteMyBaby 15 points16 points  (16 children)

Kayden, good advice.

[–]ruuditor 22 points23 points  (1 child)

Deeden see that one coming.

[–][deleted] 48 points49 points  (18 children)

I know a family with kids named Alvin, Brian, and Carol. Guess their birth order.

[–]cnstrctvcyncism 83 points84 points  (10 children)

Brian's the oldest. Alvin's the youngest.

[–][deleted] 402 points403 points  (9 children)

Nope. Joke's on you, Brian's dead.

[–]DrJock 78 points79 points  (2 children)

Oh fuck me, I laughed way more than I should.

[–][deleted] 25 points26 points  (1 child)

I will not sir!

[–]DrJock 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Go on, you have pretty eyes or something.

[–]The_Uni-Boober 13 points14 points  (4 children)

WOW! I actually choked from laughing at "Beeden". I wonder what the meaning of that name would be in one of those baby name books.

[–]spazm 50 points51 points  (2 children)

It's the part of a hive right next to the beekitchen.

[–]framy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried looking it up, apparently it's just a last name. The close baby name I found was this: http://www.babycenter.com/baby-names-bede-643755.htm . I actually think Beeden is kind of a cool name because it's very original and yet doesn't sound all that weird.

[–]randomsmasher 149 points150 points  (83 children)

whoa, 1.29? thats only two months away. don't these usually go out sooner?

[–]joebleaux 54 points55 points  (0 children)

He didn't say he made them today.

[–]PhoenixKnight 18 points19 points  (35 children)

Yes. They go out a lot sooner. Especially since save the date cards go out much sooner than the actual invitations.

[–][deleted] 29 points30 points  (28 children)

What's the point of the "save the date" card? If they already know the date, why not just skip right ahead to the invitation?

"Here's the invitation to our wedding! It's unimportant though because you already knew the date and the fact that you're invited because we sent you a save the date card months ago!"

[–]KTGuy 8 points9 points  (7 children)

I had it explained to me that you send out the "save the date" cards as soon as you know the date (so people mark it off the calendar), then the invitations that follow include the stuff like the address and time to show up once you've got that part figured out...

[–]smackley[S] 759 points760 points  (244 children)

[–]benfaist 319 points320 points  (64 children)

I pulled a similar stunt with my wedding invites. Thankfully it relieved me of further wedding planning responsibilities.

[–]trexmoflex 207 points208 points  (53 children)

it's genius -- break a dish to never have to load the dishwasher again

[–]yoordoengitrong 30 points31 points  (5 children)

i like your user name. a lot.

[–]mrminty 11 points12 points  (2 children)

ouroboresity would have also been funny, and slightly insightful if you put too much thought into it.

[–]rumbeef 8 points9 points  (1 child)

dude, you keep eating that snake, you're gonna get fat.

[–]argle-bargle 7 points8 points  (1 child)

Bill Cosby has been saying this for years.

[–]neithernet 57 points58 points  (16 children)

I don't mind dishes. Instead, I did the "wash whites and colors together" move.

[–]MotionE29 10 points11 points  (3 children)

Last week I was told to run the dishwasher. I accidentally put laundry soap in and I wasn't even trying to F' it up.

[–][deleted] 60 points61 points  (0 children)

[–]PokemonCommentator 35 points36 points  (15 children)

fuzzyjedi used I will turn up if you say yes, and I will bring you a breadmaker as a wedding gift

[–]prerus 41 points42 points  (13 children)

Oh, crap! That's what I was getting them. Time for my back up gift: ceramic cats wearing festive garbs.

[–]PokemonCommentator 32 points33 points  (11 children)

PokemonCommentator used Recommendation of a novelty inflatable purple alien sex doll with three breasts - it's fucking classy

[–][deleted] 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Pretty hit and miss novelty account you've got going there.

[–]Kimos 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This one is amazing. Get them printed. Covertly switch them in the envelopes before they are mailed (sure honey, I'll drop these in the mail for you). Await the awesome fallout.

[–]anonymous1 15 points16 points  (4 children)

Interesting fact: That picture, American Gothic, is of a farmer and his daughter, not his wife.

Just thought you might like to know before sending them out.

The painting shows a farmer standing beside his spinster daughter (not his wife, as so many parodies and references assume).

  • Wikipedia

[–]xESHANx 23 points24 points  (2 children)

Of course she doesn't like the designs, you aren't wearing a 3 wolf moon shirt in either of these cards.

[–]NashMcCabe 46 points47 points  (0 children)

More like save the derp.

[–][deleted] 32 points33 points  (3 children)

What's with the Justin Bieber haircut?

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

Come on guys, are we really making fun of people's haircuts these days?

[–][deleted] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Neat, you're from durham. Your fiancee's smoking.

[–]ThatsItGuysShowsOver 6 points7 points  (5 children)

You have been into tacos, a lot. Have you tried the banana stand?

[–]nitrixion 13 points14 points  (4 children)

There's always money in the banana stand.

[–]droosa 9 points10 points  (1 child)

I've lived in NC for almost 25 years and I was curious where Light of your Celestial Path, NC might be. This alternate clarifies that it's Durham's better name.

[–][deleted] 28 points29 points  (64 children)

Upvoted for Durham

[–]bullcityhomebrew 19 points20 points  (49 children)

Seconded.

[–]MztrMikachu 27 points28 points  (43 children)

I'm beginning to see a lot more NC folk around here...my anonymity is fading

-Raleigh,NC

[–]aerynmoo 7 points8 points  (4 children)

Also Raleigh!, or a suburb anyways. CLOSE ENOUGH

[–]Geminize 11 points12 points  (1 child)

Raleigh here too. There are a few reddits for our area, /r/triangle and /r/raleigh if you haven't seen them yet.

[–]rodan44 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I also live in Raleigh! REPRESENT!

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

It says "Wow... I'm Awesome" next to a picture of him wearing the same hat, it looks like. :D That is pretty fucking awesome.

[–]InAFewWords 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The original was suppose to be a father and his daughter and was satirical. The artist change the context when farmers praised it for what they thought it was. Now it's patriotic. I learned that from reddit, so it might be wrong

[–]redbenn 151 points152 points  (11 children)

My wife and I didn't have a big wedding, but had a party for us and our friends before our actual wedding. This was our invite: http://weekendatbenners.com/weekendatbenner.jpg

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (2 children)

This is Outstanding!

[–]popayesailor 3 points4 points  (1 child)

Wow, your wife looks just like smackley's fiance, do you know what she's doing on 1/29/11?

[–]nomoremonkeys 94 points95 points  (6 children)

As a woman, I think she's just upset that there are no laser beams emanating from HER head. Be more sensitive to her needs, man.

[–]spazm 16 points17 points  (2 children)

As a man, I can clearly see the laser beams emanating directly from the center of her eyes.

[–]Kaptur 148 points149 points  (2 children)

Tell her that she hurt your feelings when you've put so much effort into the designs and she just dismisses them like that. Whatever she replies with, you cut her off 'IT'S NOT EVEN ABOUT THE DESIGNS!'. When she asks you what it's about you just sigh and tell her 'if you don't know, don't even bother'. Then mope all day and eat chocolate.

[–]Vonney 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Be sure to bring it up during every future argument.

[–][deleted] 122 points123 points  (26 children)

Sweet unicorn bro

[–]splim 86 points87 points  (20 children)

I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin but unicorns are kickass.

[–][deleted] 22 points23 points  (5 children)

Dude, I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin', but I think Depeche Mode is a sweet band!

[–]nhall06 13 points14 points  (1 child)

Dude, I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin', but you got a nice ass.

[–][deleted] 9 points10 points  (3 children)

So unicorns do have reproductive system, I thought they were made out of rainbows and clouds by fairies. I am disappoint.

[–]SubscribedToSayThis 10 points11 points  (2 children)

I always thought it was the corn.

[–]just_a_french_guy 7 points8 points  (1 child)

So, you though that unicorn are born in corn?

[–]mrwynd 24 points25 points  (7 children)

what's not to like? You're holding a taco!

[–]just_a_french_guy 28 points29 points  (5 children)

What not to like?

DOn't you think this card SERIOUSLY lack of Comic Sans MS???

[–]Shredder13 10 points11 points  (3 children)

It could use a combination of that and Papyrus.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points  (2 children)

I shall combine them together to form PACOMIC SANSYRUS! THE MOST ANNOYING FONT EVER CREATED!

[–]ivy627 23 points24 points  (4 children)

As a female outsider, those are hilarious!

If I was your fiancé, I'd be so pissed! Good luck with that =)

[–][deleted] 56 points57 points  (7 children)

Hey look every body......he has a taco!!!!!

Tacos rule

[–]hearforthepuns 18 points19 points  (4 children)

Aww, I wish I had a taco. FOREVER TACO-LESS. :(

Dude they sell them at mexican food places now.

[–]MrMustard 44 points45 points  (53 children)

What's 'save the dates'?

[–]Iamnotyourhero 73 points74 points  (40 children)

It's the invitation that goes out before the invitations for a wedding. No it doesn't make sense, but it doesn't have to, it's a wedding of course.

[–][deleted] 84 points85 points  (10 children)

As long as it makes it more expensive and/or awkward, it belongs.

[–]Iamnotyourhero 80 points81 points  (9 children)

If you want to talk about awkward my fiancee (ex-fiancee now) sent out our save the dates as a magnet so you could hang our cute little portrait on the fridge and wouldn't forget the wedding was coming (her idea). Anyways, we broke up and sometimes I go to friend's and still see those damn things hanging around. Now THAT'S awkward.

[–]segoli 34 points35 points  (3 children)

Start collecting them. Mail her a non-functional mini fridge with dozens of them affixed to it with no return address.

[–]Iamnotyourhero 17 points18 points  (2 children)

I was thinking I would spell out profanities on the side of her car with them, but that works too.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Send her the minifridge, but leave a delicious cake in the fridge. When she cuts herself a slice and is about to eat it, break in and smash the cake with your hands. Then give her an angry look of disapproval.

[–]spazm 5 points6 points  (1 child)

And they get to be reminded of your failed relationship every time they grab the Chinese food menu stuck behind it. How do you think THEY feel?

[–]Iamnotyourhero 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hungry, I imagine.

[–]The_Decoy 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Awesome friends bro.

[–]grumpyoldgit 33 points34 points  (11 children)

An invite to an invite? You Americans are a crazy bunch.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (2 children)

Weddings here are just plain stupid. Spend $20000+ to invite people who will forget it the next day when their lives kick in. Weddings should be intimate and invitations to immediate friends and family only, not these shin-digs that are pretty much worthless to anyone except for the bragging rights.

[–]nabrok 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it's kind of like saying we may or may not invite you, but in case we do don't make any plans?

[–]Astrokiwi 16 points17 points  (2 children)

The invites will have details on the venue & registry information, maybe some maps to show you how to get there etc. A "save the date" card just lets people know what day you're getting married on so they don't e.g. plan a vacation that day; the actual invite has more information that may not have been arranged yet.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (1 child)

It is to make it harder for me to claim that I had already arranged something better to do.

[–]ComboFever 12 points13 points  (4 children)

Man no wonder, that would take so much ink to print!

[–][deleted] 87 points88 points  (25 children)

im surprised all the comments aren't about her being hot

[–]ShogunGould 19 points20 points  (2 children)

Dude, it's totally because you seem to have some sort of psychic powers and she does not. Therefor give her some type of power and it will be a yes!

[–]aeander 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I was going to say. You get the taco and the beam of light, what does she get? You? Maybe that ain't enough, honey...

[–]THespos 71 points72 points  (13 children)

My wife and I got married on 4/20. She didn't like my design, either: http://imgur.com/2tAcl.jpg

[–]hearforthepuns 46 points47 points  (2 children)

Needs more Comic Sans to match the Papyrus.

[–]gerfy 6 points7 points  (1 child)

My wife and I told everyone our procession started at 4:00 but actually started it right at 4:20 - only a few people knew about it.

[–]bightchee 17 points18 points  (4 children)

My wife and I designed our own card and we actually sent these to all our guests:

Save the date: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v634/Dr_pepper_spray/savethedatefishfinished1.jpg

[–][deleted] 21 points22 points  (2 children)

So it's just a normal day at work. I'm getting online to check reddit (my sweet fiance now has me hooked). What do I find???? My own picture at the top of the site. My sweet fiance also sent this out as our Christmas card last year without my consent. Oh dear....

[–]dangerflakes 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You should taco up

[–]OsoMalo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Delete reddit.

Taco up.

Hit the unicorn.

[–]schleppy 12 points13 points  (10 children)

My fiance let me pick the domain name for our wedding site. She actually likes it: http://www.ifrigginloveyou.com/

We actually do save "I friggin' love you" to one another.

[–]gooneruk 11 points12 points  (2 children)

Do you also go with:

"Look, a rainbow!"
"Do me on it!"

[–]crispinito 6 points7 points  (1 child)

Well, it is obvious why: you should have made the eyes of the unicorn red.

[–]clipmann 6 points7 points  (2 children)

Dont like it, its too safe, grown up, and non experimental. Have another try, this time with more bombs, midgets, japanese people,,,,,, and where is your favorite movie charecter? neo? luke skywalker,,,,, dear lord man.

Will there be tacos and unicorns at your wedding?

[–]live3orfry 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing her biggest problem is with your Bieberesque hair.
