A Spork-tastic Day, Part UNO

17 Sep

Oh hell, where do I even start. This is going to be a two part delivery, because there’s simply too much awesome to contain in one post.
So last night BFF presented me with my birthday gifts. Here they are.

Canned Unicorn Meat, Titanium Spork, and a Stamp that reads "Thanks for being... You, An Asshole, Both"

Oh yeah. She knows me so well. The unicorn meat can, once opened, revealed a dismembered stuffed unicorn. I laughed so hard I snorted!

So BFF, DBFF (Dude is the D, for all y’all catching up), and I decide to take the Spork on a road trip the next day. We plan to drive up Highway 1, through Big Sur up to Monterey, and back. Oh yeah, Spork’s going on a motherfucking RADventure.

This is going to be picture heavy, so if you don’t like pictures… go away.

Anywhoo, we get a pile of coffee, energy drinks, and snacks, and roll the fuck on the road at oh-bright-thirty 9AM.

Highway 1, for those of you unfamiliar with California, is a twisty fucking road that scales the mountains bordering the Pacific Ocean, and pretty much is a 2 lane highway with sheer cliff dropoffs for many, many miles. FUN SHIT.

Our first potty break, and the Spork made it’s debut.

I can’t stop laughing and brandishing the Spork at random strangers. Yes, utensils are vastly entertaining.

I took about 3 “actual” pictures. Here’s one for you.

Ooooo.... purdy.....

No joke, kids, I live in fucking paradise.

Anywhoo, onward with more Spork.

(DBFF behind the Spork)

BFF dancing!!!

Back on the road!

Giggling like an 8 year old going to a Bieber concert, I “stab” my friends.

POKE. POKE.

STAB!

I’m laughing my ass off in the back seat, because A) they can’t see me and B) I can’t hear them over the WHOOSHING sounds. The sunroof is open, and I’m deaf to fucking begin with.

Look at our amazing weather!

We stop at the most kick-ass lookout point… I wish I had all the pictures, like the one with me and BFF posting with the spork while DBFF looked confused and weirded out by us, but some of them were on another camera and are currently waiting to get out of jail.

Bridge, YO!

Moar Bridge

Back on the road!

SNACK TIME!

So, like half the road is washed out at some points, but I didn’t stop to take pictures because the ground was whizzing by too fast, and I was too distracted with my spork to care. But really. They’re building this sweet fucking bridge so hopefully the road can continue on even when the coast decides to lose some weight and be ever closer to rejoining her eastern brethren.

And we arrive in Monterey.

I relentlessly wave my Spork out of the window, desperately hoping someone will notice it and laugh. They don’t. The most I got was an odd look from one of those sign twirler motherfuckers.

This cab made my LIFE. Yes, it’s real, no photoshop.

We found this restaurant

Fucking. Brilliant.

… and we decide to go eat.

The food…Oh my… the food. It’s brilliant. Delicious. YUMMMMM. We ate like pigs. The decor was AAAAHmazing.

Spork meets a cousin

Back on the road, Whole Foods was on the to-do list from DBFF, cause he’s a hippy like that. Seriously, what the fuck is with that store? I felt weird walking in without dreads and a cloud of patchouli vapor following me. I was too afraid to take Spork pictures, though, cause those hippies looked freaking vicious. DBFF got some weird hippy tea drink that smelled like assholes, but tasted OK. I didn’t buy anything. I was afraid of being infected with a love of weed. Rite-Aid seemed like a more appropriate source for me, so from Rite-Aid we picked up more caffeine and headed to Castroville for some fucking Artichokes.

The artichoke house was pretty awesome. They had all sorts of fun stuff, like roosters

BEYONCE, BITCHES

Nutella

And fartless Chili

Completely fucking pointless

The best part? The 12 for a dollar artichokes, and the GIANT painting on the wall, that was, shall we say, simply enormous.

BFF licking the artichoke

BFF and I have a mini dance-off party in the parking lot, while DBFF pretends like he doesn’t know us, and hides in the car while we’re booty shaking and singing some nonsense tunes in front of the artichoke shrine. We get bored and decide to rejoin DBFF, who’s basically snoozing in the car waiting for us to finish acting like idiots in public while random geriatrics stare at us.

At this point, we all piled back into the car like a pack of sleepy kittens, and struggled to get our second wind. We’d been on the road for 7 hours, and were pretty worn out.

Cue text messages from our favorite texting personality, Skottikins, who demands to know if the “nuclear melt-down sirens were activated upon our arrival back in home county”?

I dressed up as a terrorist for this occasion.

It's a turban, fuckers. Don't judge art.

So, upon arriving back in Le Paradise, we drop off DBFF, because in reality, trying to handle two of us is simply too much for one person in one day.

BFF and I continued our adventures…..

But you’ll have to keep reading to find out.

BWHAHAHAAA

    Sporkalicious motherfuckers!

  2. opticynicism September 17, 2011 at 11:05 PM #

    NOS!! I fucking love NOS! I can’t drink it anymore because it wants to kill me, but I love that shit.

    Looks like an awesome day!

    • tazer warrior princess September 18, 2011 at 12:09 AM #

      I tweaked the fuck out and laughed for about 28 minutes straight. I think this is what snorting coke feels like. Although I’ve never tried the white stuff.

  3. Snarkley Street September 17, 2011 at 11:45 PM #

    I wish I had people like you to go on adventures with. :( ((

    I WANT A DISMEMBERED UNICORN MEAT CAN. GIVE IT TO MEEEEE!!!!!

  4. Snarkley Street September 17, 2011 at 11:46 PM #

    Also, my adventures consist of me dancing alone in public while the Hubz and/or roomy pretend like they don’t know me.

  5. Charles Emerson September 18, 2011 at 1:21 AM #

    This is so awesome. This blog post was… SO awesome… You took me on a wild and fun ride and I loved that the spork was there with me the whole time.

    You do appear to live in paradise.

    Whole Foods is a marketing scam and I feel bad for the people that shop there.

    they have fucking TAPATIO FLAVORED DORITOS!?!?!?! here’s my face when I saw that:

    https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-bG9mjsvBbno/TnWpk4uveiI/AAAAAAAAA4Q/bYa6MAxx0dQ/images.jpeg

    Also: I love the straight up and true language and flow of your blog. I feel comfortable here. Please yell in my face next time you have a great post like this so that I wont miss it. :-)

    • tazer warrior princess September 18, 2011 at 9:56 AM #

      RIGHT???? Tapatio Doritos???? And they’re fucking delicious and make my mouth hurt from their fiery goodness.

      Thank you for the complements. I try to write like I speak, which is energetically and full of randomness and crazy, grammar be damned. :)

  6. RichardHead September 18, 2011 at 6:28 AM #

    This is totally unfucking believable,that I– Mr. Dick did not know it was your Birthday. I feel like such a DouchBagel.. Other things I did NOT know…..
    1. Your a Virgin…
    2. Today the 18th is AlleD’s Birthday
    3. Some guy named RichardHead has one tomorrow.
    It is no wonder that we should be ruling the World.
    Happy Late Birthday,Princess…Love You
    Jim

      1. NEgative ghost rider.
      2. Ooooo really!??!?!
      3. HAPPY FUCKING BIRTHDAY!
      4. Mine’s not until the end of the month, but thanks!

    My kids had this ‘Flat Stanley project at school where they mailed this paper cut-out of a kid around the world and people sent back pictures of his adventures. I say, send the Spork! Mail his spork-tacular ass my way and I’ll show him how we kick it P-town style, then I’ll send it on to Hoody, Misty, Noa, or someone else and it’ll go on from there. It’ll be fucking Spork-a-palooza, yo!

    • tazer warrior princess September 18, 2011 at 9:54 AM #

      This is such a brilliant idea. Noa would make us look like amateurs, as always, Hoody would make me pee my pants, and from you and Misty…. it’d be something completely out of left field.

      • mistyslaws September 19, 2011 at 9:11 AM #

        I’m down. Send that shit to the East Coast, yo. You’ve already seen my Whacked Pics. Oh what I could do with a spork! :)

      • Jen September 19, 2011 at 9:14 AM #

        I would fucking KILL to see Misty dress the spork in leopard spandex. BTW, I just registered for BlogHer 2012 this morning. Are you crazy bitches going?

      • tazer warrior princess September 19, 2011 at 11:31 AM #

        Right?

        We might need to make this happen.

        BlogHer would be dangerous.

  8. Jaime September 18, 2011 at 11:01 AM #

    the California coast is definitely awesomeness…. the fam and I used to drive down it to visit my grandpa in California. I miss it! I’m also incredibly jealous cuz your adventures are just my cup of tea… except not tea, cuz I hate that shit.

  9. Corinne September 18, 2011 at 11:11 AM #

    I miss the north coast…

    That being said, Jesus in a sandwich bag, girl.

    I would think the hippies would adore you and your titanium spork, simply for the fact that it is Earth conscious and you are saving hundreds of seagulls and Somalian yaks by not using plastic, disposable forks.

    The Man also gets embarrassed by my public dance displays and often pretends he doesn’t know me. He does this by walking far ahead of me, leaving me to grace other’s presences with my awful moves. Silly men.

    I look forward to part Dos/Deux/Two.

    • tazer warrior princess September 18, 2011 at 11:15 AM #

      yes, but, I wield my spork as a weapon… not it’s intended purpose, and I bathe daily so I waste resources and shit. Frickin hippies. I’ll go get some alkaseltzer and blow up seagulls to do penance for looking like one.

      • Jen September 19, 2011 at 3:29 PM #

        First rule of spork fight club. . .do not talk about spork fight club. . .

  10. Becky Delport (@BexstarD) September 18, 2011 at 1:31 PM #

    Oh how I fucking laughed. It’s Monday morning here in NZ & it was going incredibly stink ass until I read this post. Thanks for making it a little less shit house x

    P.S I love your BFF’s t-shirt.

    • tazer warrior princess September 18, 2011 at 6:43 PM #

      I showed her your comment, she says thank you!

      Glad I could make your day a little bit better :)

    I feel that only through the spork can one truly SEE America. You know, really see it. Which is to say, through your spork sojourn, I feel you’ve really shown me my own country.

    And, honest to god, I feel cheated by the Tapatio Doritos. I’m certain we don’t have them here. If we did, I’d be on that shit like white on rice. Why does everyone in a position of marketing power hate the Midwest? People LIVE here, for god’s sake. We have jobs. And families. And we get hungry.

    • mistyslaws September 19, 2011 at 9:14 AM #

      Yes, but according to marketing, your taste buds can only handle wonder bread, rice and potatoes. Sorry mid-west . . . no spicy hot for you!

    • tazer warrior princess September 19, 2011 at 11:01 AM #

      Check a mexi-mart. We don’t have them in normal stores, but the ones that sell pig’s feet and look at you like you are a 7′ tall blue alien if you speak english? Those fuckers are hogging the chips.

      • Team Suzanne September 19, 2011 at 2:55 PM #

        Marketing schmarketing. I get you. Too many people eating plain pasta around here.

        I will check out a mexi-mart. I know of what you speak, but, it will not surprise you, we are a little thin on mexi-marts here in the white bread capital of the US.

      • tazer warrior princess September 19, 2011 at 2:56 PM #

        I am not surprised. Maybe a care package will be in order. Tapatio is important.

      • Jen September 19, 2011 at 3:30 PM #

        Just found the Tapatio chips online. $5.99 is freaking ridiculous for a mail order bag of chips! So I ordered two. Arriba, muthafuckas!

      • tazer warrior princess September 19, 2011 at 3:51 PM #

        I feel like the love has been properly spread. Yeeeeah chips!!!!

  12. mistyslaws September 19, 2011 at 9:20 AM #

    1. This is only HALF a post? Damn girl, that is some long ass stuff right there. Love it. Bring on Part Deux!
    2. Love driving through Big Sur to Monterey. Some of the most beautiful scenery I have ever seen. I want to get out there again sometime soon.
    3. We ate at this place in Monterey that has the best clam chowder I have ever tasted. And I am a fan of clam chowder, so I have had my share. Can’t remember the name of the place though. Dag.
    4. That wasn’t a cousin . . . that was a love connection right there. I could see the desire emanating from the titanium.
    5. Mmmmm, artichokes.
    6. Beyonce, bitches!! Ha!

    Love it, can’t wait for the sequel. Happy friggin birthday. I need some unicorn in a can for my next bday. Ask BFF where one procures such an item, k?

    • tazer warrior princess September 19, 2011 at 11:33 AM #

      It is long, but it was a full day of shenanigans…. about 12 hours worth. Part 2 was 6PM to 9PM hehe. I’m working on it, but I really should clean my pigpe…er…house… so it’s slightly liveable.

      Mmm clam chowder.

  13. thoughtsappear September 20, 2011 at 6:18 AM #

    Unicorn meat! Have you seen the Unicorn gum? I’m going to get you some as a belated birthday present.

  14. Paula @ thewilyweez September 21, 2011 at 5:18 AM #

    That is the trifecta of gifts…

  15. Jen September 25, 2011 at 9:37 AM #

    You inspired me to take some spork pics around Portlandia, but I can’t figure out how to send them to you. Grr!

    I even stalked Timothy Hutton on the set of ‘Leverage’ for a celebrity spork pic. . .he looked a little disturbed by it.

  16. Norway November 23, 2011 at 6:34 PM #

    So I’ve been wondering this for, oh, about three days now… Where can I acquire a metal spork? Preferably, though not essentially, one that would rust pretty quickly? Cos there are a disturbing number of people that I want to stab in the eye with a rusty spork, and even though I (likely) wouldn’t do it, it’d be nice to have the spork to make the threat properly terrifying.

    • tazer warrior princess November 23, 2011 at 6:46 PM #

      You can find them online! Just google “titanium spork”… camping outfitters have them! :-D
