I’m ‘bout to throw my Del Taco out da window!

filed under:

Lunch on Friday. A group of us rather snarky programmers headed over to Uncle Darrows on Lincoln for some tasty Cajun. On the way, we happened to pass a big ol’ dirty white K car wagon parked on the side of the road with two very dirty looking people in it. Mark decided that they looked like the were covered in soot. I figured they must have wandered off the set of a less-than-subtle chimney sweep film.

No sooner did they catch our collective eye, than a package of Del Taco came hurling from the car window… The stationary car window.

A simple thing, yes… But we found it pretty hilarious. For the rest of the day, the phrase “Throw my Del Taco out da window!” was used over to mean just about anything context would allow. Perhaps inspired by the Peanutbutter Jelly Time meme, one of our programmers went home and recorded The Del Taco Song.

Here it is, for your enjoyment: The Del Taco Song
