In-N-Out Burger!!!!!


Despite only being on the West Coast for a month and a half, I must say, I'm hooked. I think I went to In-N-Out at least 9 times during my LA stay, and was filled with good food and joy without fail every single time.

Just look at how crack that looks. Wow it's hurting right now because I know I'm not going to eat one for at least a year (until I invest in the company and start bringing that shit out East). The beauty about In-N-Out, among many things, is that the menu is so simple. Double cheeseburger w/ fries, cheeseburger w/ fries, or hamburger w/ fries. Who gets hamburgers, really? They also have milkshakes, made with 100% real ice cream, not that Wendy's frosty bullshit. But you can also add your own twist to the menu. It's almost like a secret code that In-N-Out regulars just know. You can get a protein burger, wrapped in fresco lettuce with no bun, you can get the burger "animal style", with grilled onions and crack sauce, which you can do the same to your fries, + cheese. Mmmmmmmm.

There are also other things you can do which I'm just not up on yet. Also, the people who work there are really friendly, must be due to that $10 an hour starting wage. All the burgers are cooked fresh, not frozen, not injected w/ preservatives and chemicals. The fries are peeled and sliced daily from potatoes, and the buns are baked fresh. This is the beauty that is In-N-Out burger. Buy tickets to the West Coast (they only have locations in CA, NV, AZ, UT) just to try it. Hop on the bandwagon, you won't hop off.

Lord T & Eloise @ The Viper Room



I honestly could just post that picture and not even have to write anything, in an "enough said" kinda way. But after you take in the visual presented above, probably either laugh or say to yourself "what the fuck", imagine these two "aristocratic", funkadelic, pimpalicious looking dudes going on stage and tearing that shit apart. Because that is exactly what they did. It was my last night in LA, so obviously I wanted to do some wild shit. So through friends of a friend, I went to the Viper Room to see this group I had absolutely no idea about, genre, name etc, called Lord T and Eloise. I got there a little late with my boy Nick, and did a double take when I saw the guys on stage performing. Like in the picture above, one was wearing and 18th century aristocratic outfit with high tights and some kind of cat-eared wig on. The other was painted completely gold and had curlers in his hair... with all this considered, the two were spitting hard body lyrics. Think Beastie Boys/Ice Cube/Snoop Dogg/some Crunk South shit. They are a self-proclaimed "Aristocrunk" rap group from Tennessee, consisted of Lord Treadwell and Maurice Eloise XIII. Aristocrunk is supposed to represent a music genre and a lifestyle, according to aristocrats. I was so surprised to see what I was seeing, and even more surprised that I almost immediately started grooving with the other 50 or so people who were there. The performance was as hype as it was baffling. But got less and less baffling as they continued to play, where it got to the point that you expected any live rapper to prepare their own ridiculous attire to even compete with the Lord and Eloise. They were pouring champagne into peoples mouths and throwing dollar bills at the crowd, one of which I caught and pocketed in a quick and fluid motion. It was one of the illest performances I've ever seen, because of the originality but also because of the talent that they had. It was truly really good music. There was a DJ on the tables, and another performer who was called they "Theodore Roosevelt", wearing a toupée while break dancing/crip walking/crunking... Yeah, it was wild. After the performance, I realized that I had been rockin out next to Seth Green the whole time. So that's why this little ass dude (who I thought was a child, no offense to Seth as I was behind him) was surrounded by like 4 hot girls. So anyway, google these dudes. The live aspect of the act is definitely their strong point, but like I said the music was dope as well, and getting a chance to see them live will bring you fun, happiness and crunk.
