In a brand-new radio ad from Taco Bell, a lonely sad-sack picks up his phone to find a talking Queso Crunchwrap on the line. The overly excited lunch item is ready to rock the young man's world, but the young man initially seems unimpressed, though not at all concerned that he is chatting with a Taco Bell Crunchwrap that has somehow acquired the power of speech. In the end, the Queso Crunchwrap convinces Droopy that good times are forthcoming, making him repeat the mantra "Queso's coming over and Queso wants to party" until the anthropomorphic Crunchwrap is satisfied.Had it been me receiving this particular call, things would have ended mighty differently:
RING, RING
Matt: Hello?
Queso Crunchwrap (smarmily): Bro, what's goin' on?
M: Who is this, please?
QCW: It's me, the new Queso Crunchwrap from Taco Bell! Can I come over?
M: Wait, who is this exactly?
QCW: I'm spicy and delicious. I'm from Taco Bell. You can eat me.
M: Eat you? I'm sorry, but I think you have the wrong number.
QCW: C'mon, bro, just repeat after me: Queso's coming over and Queso wants to party.
M (frenzied): I don't understand! Why is this happening?!
QCW: You can do better than that! C'mon! Queso's coming over and Queso wants to party!
M: Please, just leave me alone! I don't understand who I'm talking to. This is a...crunchwrap?
QCW: The new Taco Bell Queso Crunchwrap!
M: You are an abomination! You shouldn't be! Truly this is the end of all things! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGHHHHH!

QCW: Bro?
Also, get ready opera fans--An Inconvenient Truth: The Opera is on the way!
I'm still waiting for the opera version of Brokeback Mountain to debut, and they drop this on me?! I thought the whole movie-to-Broadway-musical thing was obnoxious, now they're turning some into operas? I understand a Wedding Singer musical, but an An Incovenient Truth opera? Just go crazy, Opera Makers, and turn some of these enduring classics into hacky, novelty operas: Troll 2, Capturing the Friedmans, Hope Floats, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, Two and a Half Men--the list for shitty opera-adaptations is endless!
