I think the important thing here is that we just stop arguing.

It’s a tortilla.

Looks like a chapati to me.
mmmmmm…… curry….

There are three bikes on the top landing of my apartment block, kept there by tenants (renters not owners).
They aren’t a tripping or fire-escape hazard, because they are out of the way of the doors and stairs. But so far, we’ve had two landing windows broken from the inside, and I’m pretty sure it was done by careless bike-carrying. Of course, nobody owned up, so us long-suffering flat owners had to pay for the repairs.
Bloody tenants!

RISE, TORTILLA NATION! Do not accept this ignoble dismissal of your pedigree! Stand up for your heritage and know that you do not stand alone, for your tortilla brothers and sisters will not submit to food racism ANY MORE.

Well, besides it being rude to force people to walk past your bike in their shared hallway (you mention yourself how “NYC-sized” it is….

And during a fire in a NYC apartment bldg, a bike locked to a hallway bannister could result in the death of you, your neighbors or the fireman trying to save your inconsiderate ass….

SO YEAH. CREATING A POTENETIALLY DEADLY FIRE HAZARD IS AN “apparent NO-NO”…

That bread in the bottom picture is a partially eaten or torn off chunk of steak or hoagie roll.
probably thrown there for birds to eat.
I know, who gives a shit?

A little late to add to this thread but corrective action is better late than never….

Canthz B – Fascism is actually not a right-wing philosophy, you are are thinking more along the lines of economic thought – capitalism vs socialism – not political thought. If you think of say, Hitler or Mussolini and compare them with Stalin, you’ll see that they had different economic philosophies but all were hellbent on statism, albeit slightly different flavors of statism but statism nonetheless. Statism, regardless of your economic leanings, is the goal of fascism.

Fast forward to Obama and his utterances of “Sacrifice!” as the elixir for our ills, that the common good trumps private endeavors, the need for state ownership of banks and manufacturing giants (like the Big 3, for example) and you can see why the “right” is calling him fascist.

Personally I wouldn’t say he’s there but from a free-market perspective he is closer to being a fascist than Bush was.

Now, from a tortilla perspective, that is the kind of food everyone can enjoy – fascist, capitalist, communist, socialist, environmentalist…
