The Other Woman
I reject being described as the “other member” of Jennifer’s community who “has some ideas of her own and from time to time might make a guest appearance or two" and would like to introduce myself.
I have way more than "few" ideas. In fact, before Jennifer even had the idea for this little think tank, I created Ideas by the Gallon where people would pay me the average price of a gallon of gas for an idea. Brilliant, no? Well, don’t bother to look for it because it was just an idea, it didn’t actually happen. But the reason it didn’t happen is not because it wasn’t a fantastic idea, it’s just that I didn’t have enough time to work on it before the next great idea struck: a website called NamingCars.com where people got to personify cars and put them up for adoption. However, this didn’t happen due to the fact that a even newer and more exciting idea struck (more about future-predicting gumball machines later). Although I did actually create a prototype for the NamingCars website and that is pretty much as far as I've ever gotten with anything. Okay, I didn't actually create the prototype, but my unbelievably tolerant and talented friend did (he's a keeper) and I count the fact that he even takes my calls as my accomplishment.
Speaking of friends, I am not even a little bit bitter about the fact that my friend Jennifer actually had an idea (aka this website) and actually made it happen. There’s no reason for me to be at all jealous because the fact of the matter is that the real reason that most of Jennifer’s other ideas have not to come to fruition is that they are really gross. Take SpaghettiBurrito for example. While a SpaghettiBurrito might be tasty, novel, multi-cultural, and convenient, it sounds disgusting. And the implications of such a contraption are huge. Imagine a ChopSueyBurrito or IrishStewBurrito!
And about the name, I think it is false advertising. I mean, are there even beans involved? If not (and I dearly hope not) wouldn’t it really just be spaghetti in a tortilla?
Anyway, I can tell that you're glad I'm here.

That's a good point Anna. Because Fritos are EXACTLY like spaghetti.
