The NFL's JJ Watt Sacks Chipotle On Twitter

JJ Watt has one question for Chipotle: Where's the beef?

In a frustrated tweet today, the gigantic defensive end for the NFL's Arizona Cardinals told the Mexican food chain: "Burritos have been getting smaller. It's high time we open dialogue about it. We want big burritos back."

Watt included a photo of a Chipotle burrito dwarfed by his huge hands—hardly a satisfying meal for a man that measures 6'8 and 288 pounds.

In response to Watt, one miffed tweeter even pulled out a ruler to prove the point.

Return of #burritogate

The Pro Bowl player's complaint was nothing new. Business Insider broke the story last year that customers around the country were expressing their displeasure across social media that Chipotle has been skimping on their burritos.

At the time, Chipotle blamed the problem on custom orders, not the serving size.

"Guests of Chipotle have the opportunity to completely customize their meal in restaurants by vocalizing their desired portions, or digitally selecting extra, light, normal or on the side when choosing from the list of real ingredients," Chief Corporate Affairs Officer Laurie Schalow said in a statement. "We are not experiencing any supply-chain shortages, and Chipotle receives an abundance of praise for the incredible value its entrees offer with responsibly sourced ingredients chopped or grilled fresh daily."

But this argument hasn't stopped customers from beefing with Chipotle for what they perceive as their shrinking tortilla treat.

At press time, Watt's tweet had over 58,000 likes, with many sending photos of their burrito's diminutive stature.

Many hope that a big-name star like JJ Watt joining the cause will bring back the plus-size burrito. But Chipotle has yet to respond.

An Existentialist Guide to Feeling Nothing

Image
I recently watched “ the greatest film of all time ,” and the most boring one. In retrospect, the title alone should have been a sufficient warning: Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles . Alas, I’m old enough to be a bit nostalgic about massive telephone address books. And massive it is. Clocking over 200 minutes, Chantal Akerman's 1975 dreary drama follows three days in the monotonous routine of Jeanne, a widow, a mother, and a prostitute. I watched Jeanne’s autopilot existence, until, staring at her back as she washes dishes, I decided to fast-forward a couple of minutes, only to discover she was still at it. And Jeanne is equally thorough when she’s busy baking, cleaning, folding laundry, or shining her son’s shoes. She speaks so scarcely and mechanically, that it’s impossible to detect any emotion or volition beyond her carefully controlled chores . Watching Jeanne Dielman is what the word “painstaking” was invented for. Chantal...

What Are SQL Stored Procedures and How Do You Create Them?

Image
Stored procedures: like functions for your SQL. A stored procedure is a batch of SQL statements created and stored on a database. You can reuse a stored procedure over and over again. A stored procedure can accept parameters, run a query, and return results. Many users can call a stored procedure and different applications can call it with different parameter values. What Are the Benefits of Using Stored Procedures? Apart from allowing multiple users and applications to reuse it, a stored procedure has other benefits. It is easy to modify. You can change a stored procedure when necessary and these updates will be reflected for all users. Furthermore, you don’t need to redeploy your application when you modify the stored procedure. It reduces network traffic because the server only passes the procedure’s name over the network and not the entire query. It improves database security since users don’t have direct access to tables. To make...
