OK, I’m sure some folks are really excited about the Free Taco’s for America promotion during this year’s World Series…
In a truly bizzare twist of cultural irony- the gringo suits at Taco Bell Inc. thought it’d be awesome if they encouraged overpaid minorities to steal, then rewarded degenerate America with another slap-in-the-face to real-Mex-cuisine- a powdered beef shit-taco…talk about Soiling America’s Passtime.
So, what can you do to help? How bout donating the tacos in your name to the burned border-runners in San Diego? sounds like a plan. here’s a website that’ll help-
visit www.donateyourtaco.com today (10/30) before 5pm to donate your taco to the San Diego fire victims…Or be a no-class-butt-chump and treat your asshole like San Diego, compliments of the Smell today (10/30) between 2pm and 5pm.

Tacotown is preparing for a maniacal week, prowling to the depths of the SXSW madness. Lemme tell you how TocoTown rolls: we fly thru town on a magic blanket of coolness, following our sharp wits and keen nose to the elusive, bubbly springs of hipness, from which we proceed to sample the sweet nectar of coolness and bathe in the the never-ending fountain free beer and food. Good music, on the other hand, requires a working bullshit-filter and street smarts that only Austin veterans like Taco Town posess. come fly with us.
Noted Free Taco Parties:
