INTERIOR. TACO BELL/KFC HYBRID RESTAURANT. BESS AND JENN SCOUR THE MENU FOR TODAY’S LUNCH.
BESS (to JENN): You should get the Black Jack Big Box!
JENN: (squints at menu) What? Oh. It’s a…black taco? Huh.
THE VERY DAPPER AFRICAN AMERICAN MAN WAITING IN LINE JUST IN FRONT OF THEM TURNS AROUND.
MAN: Black is in now.
JENN BLUSHES, GIGGLES NERVOUSLY.
MAN: But you need to know, once you get it, you’ll never go back to the other kind of taco again. It’ll be the best taco you’ve ever had.
BESS: . . . I hope it’s not a limited time offer.

I don’t think it is necessary to explain how upset I am that I did not get to live this experience with the both of you.
Epic.

He even asked me when I was getting my drink - “So…did you get the black taco?” I told Bess,”For some reason, I don’t think I’d reject that man if he asked for my number.” And then we both agreed, “Sarah would be SO JEALOUS.”

“You like your men like you like your tacos” doesn’t sound right. As a matter of fact it’s downright contradictory.

You know what they say…Once you go black, you’ll get bad credit.

When you are in not good state and have got no cash to go out from that, you will need to receive the loans. Because it will aid you definitely. I get short term loan every year and feel great just because of it.
