Too often we let that nerd inside starve while the geek gets overfed. Don’t get me wrong, both need sustinance, but the geek gets a huge dose of pop culture junk food while the nerd is looking around for a funny algebraic reference in the back of the fridge. BURRITO will help satisfy his hunger!
What is BURRITO? Simply put, it is a humor magazine (with “Perk at Work” in it btw). Strangely, it is not filled with cold hard facts and data but rather a humorous look on life on this earth (and beyond) that strangely appeals to the nerd within. Who is “the nerd within”? He’s the guy in each of us that sits off to the side and evaluates and analyzes life. And while he’s inside us, rarely do we listen to him, much less let him out of his well-kept room. Most of the time, he’s the voice that tells us we’re doing something stupid and why it’s stupid and we yell back “Shut up, egghead!” and he quietly reverts back to said well-kept room.
That’s ok. The nerd within doesn’t necessarily need to be the dominating aspect of our ego, at least not for non-nerds. But he doesn’t get the nourishent that he needs. Much like some vitamins that help specific parts of our physical body, there are “mental” vitamins that help sustain our physcological bodies. That nerd within needs to laugh every now and again. Just look at him, he’s wasting away! He’s already a 90 lb. weakling and we’re doing nothing to help him! Such tragedy! Enter comedy. (The nerd inside was just nourished with that last little “vitamin”.)
BURRITO is available through the website burritomagazine.com. You can get the printed version (recommended for bathroom reading) for $3 + shipping and handling or you could get the PDF version (also recommended for bathroom reading via electronic device) for only 99₵. If you’re nervous about using electronic devices due to either A) a fear of dropping them into the toilet, or B) Big Brother somehow watching you through your electronic device, or C) both A and B, you can always print up your BURRITO PDF and take that into the bathroom. Big Brother has yet to find a way to spy on you though paper. And remember, you don’t need to “use” the bathroom to go in there and read, just put the toilet seat lid down and sit on that. Or, if you’re feeling crazy, bring a blanket and lay down in the bathtub with your new BURRITO. Or I guess you can read it anywhere really.
So follow one of the many links in this blog post to the BURRITO Magazine site. We’ve got stuff from previous issues posted there for you to read for free if you can’t part with the 99₵. Read a bit for free and see if you want the new goods! Feed that nerd and he’ll be thankful.

p.s. Don’t eat food burritos in the bathroom. That’s just gross!
