I did some digging and found it in the 2017 chat thread. Here's the post where Athanatos stated his next must post have a burrito or he gets banned:

https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3806443&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=177#post471659973

What made it tricky was he requested an "artisan burrito", so searching 'artisanal', as we all refer to it, wouldn't bring up that post.

If you go back through a man and his dog's posts in that thread, of which there are many, it started because he posted his lunch several different times. Here's the first of those posts:

https://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?noseen=0&threadid=3806443&pagenumber=133&perpage=40#post471332313

There's 40+ pages of stuff between the two, with RG3 posting food a few more times in between, so I'm not sure where the goon demands for better quality burritos start, since RG3 rarely quoted who he was replying to, but that should narrow it down if you want to find that.

You are the man!

I didn't consider "artisan" at all because all the references in every other thread were for "artisanal". What a great catch! I also couldn't remember his actual forums name so searching "RG3" was not helpful.

Here's the result:

If it's a different studio producing it there probably would have been a copyright claim or something.

Also, I saw Angel has Fallen recently and it's loving wild, a PMC tries to kill the president because he's trying to get a peace deal in the middle east. Politically it's the exact opposite plot of the last two movies.

London has Fallen is loving hilarious because it's a Middle East arms dealer trying to kill the leaders of most of Western Europe and America over his kids dying in a bombing, and I just don't believe someone would try and kill off half their clients like that, even over a dead kid. You don't get into that business because you care about the lives of the people around you.

I apologize if this is annoying to other people, but I hate it when people try and say certain movies aren't political or don't want to talk about the politics of a movie. I think it's an interesting thing to look at and discuss and my enjoyment of a movie and the politics it expresses tend to be separate things. I enjoyed all of the "has Fallen" movies, but think the world they suggest is an insane lens to view things through, North Korea is not going to attack the white house, an arms dealer is not going to try and kill most of the leadership of the western world, and a PMC isn't going to try and kill a president for promoting peace (because no president will do that).

No, that's Olympus Has Fallen. It's hard to remember which movie is more ridiculous then the other, they're both so close.

White House Down is the one where they shoot down Air Force 1 with a missile, and it turns out the MIC killed the president so they could nuke Iran

It killed a poo poo ton of local law enforcement and took down a couple fighter jets and the guards (I don't know if they're secret service or military or other cops) surrounding the White House, which I think would be useful if you're trying to invade that same place and kill the President.

I do feel like modern rifles have evolved to the point a rifle is still the best way to kill a president. Just figure out a public appearance and a rifle with enough range. You don't need to crash a plane.

I think White House Down is incredibly awful but at the same time, there's something about the "daughter waiving the American flag to abort an air strike" scene that I just love.

but the filipino army is attacking the plane while they're trying to make preparations and are getting completely misted by the advance team with little to no effort.

they've got a guy with a 40 cal sniper rifle and when it hits the bad guy they fly back so hard they move the cars they crash into

It's in the five-hole!
Apropos of nothing I watched Once Upon a Time in Ukraine the other night off Amazon, absolutely fantastic stuff, it opens with a samurai (played by a clearly Slavic man) running through a forest to escape ninjas and bursting out of the woods into 1844 Ukraine and only gets battier from there. The real highlight is juggling between the native Ukrainian audio track and the English dub, the former presents the very goofy movie utterly straight while the latter lets some impressively bad voice actors get real loose with the script to great results, gives it real Kung Pow: Enter the Fist vibes

Edit: I should probably also acknowledge the movie’s portrayal of Jews, since it’s apparently intended as in the spirit of Tarantino and accordingly gives itself the lenience to make some, uh, questionable choices. Whether you want to give it the grace that it’s self-aware of antisemitic stereotypes enough to makes it ironic rather than just plain antisemitic is up to you, but it’s definitely a thing.
