(as seen at the evil empire, but I just had to liberate it)
So, uh… what’s your pizza-disaster story, y’all? I’ll go first.
Me, I used to deliver for Domino’s, and it was tonnes more fun than I’d imagined. First order of business was getting myself this freakin’ awesome powered-spotlight that plugged in to the cigarette lighter in my car, nominally so as to throw a spotlight on street addresses, at need. But hoh-my-god, that sucker was fun to play around with in general.
Also, like Ed Grimley, “I must say” that the tips were unusually good, to supplement the standard shit-wages of a delivery-boy. This was in 1990 btw, so wow… 36yrs ago, now. Tempus fugit, nonne?
Anyway, my most awkward encounter ever was the time I made a delivery, placed the pizza directly in to the man’s hands, and… for whatever reason(s) he dropped it. Right in front of me. Right between us. Probably one of the earliest scammers I ever dealt with, but it was hella embarrassing and awkward, dammit. I sure as heck didn’t know what to do or say…
How about you. Got anything…?
I’ll leave judgement to the Italian Supreme Court.
Your dad needs to step up his frozen pizza game. He needs to remove all the pepperoni before baking then rearrange them so he can slice the pizza without cutting any of them.
Bloody-hell mate, it’s a DEAL!
Next time imply you’re bringing friends and he’ll need to cut it into 32 pieces.
I wanna see him make 32 mini-pizzas with one (1) pepperoni on each.
You made me go and count the pepperonis on that pizza.
You miscounted, there’s actually 33
Not falling for that. I refuse.
:D
I wanted to talk smack at you but honestly that’s kind of a fun idea
LOL
thanks for that

Good point, dude–Well-stated. :D
your dad is correct tbh
I’m just a tadpole. Oh well.
It’d be easier with a rectangular pizza.
My god, this looks delicious. For some reason I’ve always found square and rectangle pizzas to be much more appealing. Don’t really know why
Yeah the shape of the pizza doesn’t matter to me but if you cut a circular pizza with square segments I will cut you
I’d like to use a cookie cutter to cut circular pieces out of a square pizza.

I thought the cheese filled pretzel crust pizzas sounded hella good until I had one. The salt killed it. The cheese, dough, and rest of the pizza are salty enough that it really does not need the extra pretzel rock salt.
Huh. I put garlic salt on my crust, but it’s not a pretzel rock salt. Maybe it’s the size of the grain. Or the lack of garlic.
Also different people have different salt preferences. My family can’t get enough
i think you tell a lie. everyone likes things the way i like things (the same way your family does, lots of salt. and garlic.)
There was a guy at a nursing home who lived on the 27th floor. Had to drive through a checkpoint with a guard, check in at the front desk, and ride the elevator to deliver the same plain cheese pizza every time. The guy was probably 95 so he always gave two quarters as as a tip, thinking this was a lot for a 20-something delivery driver. Probably didn’t know that the financial crisis had made it impossible to find a real job even with a university degree, and that the extra 15 minutes dealing with his building meant I was losing money, and I couldn’t use the fifty cents to buy a chicken dinner like he could when he was my age.
Yikes.
There’s a lot to comment on there, but in the US at least, there truly was a period of ‘greatness’ from around the mid-1930’s to its last gasp in the mid-1970’s, much of it salvaged by FDR-style politics.IME Boomers sadly whiff on all that all the time.

Thank you for your service.
I could see it if he were going for even pepperoni distribution, but here I’m seeing 3 slices with 5 pepperonis, 3 slices with 3 pepperonis, and 2 slices with 4 pepperonis.
32 pepperonis, he could have split it into 8 slices with 4 pepperonis each.
Oh, but what would it look like from an essential Marvel / DC perspective?
:P
You can tell it’s not ai because none of the gauntlet is made of pepperoni and none of the pepperoni has gauntlet decorations, among many other details.
I appreciate a good ol’ honest photoshopping.
I actually did use ChatGPT, but I did specify to only replace the gemstones with pepperoni. 😉
Ah, good to know. I’ve had mainly positive experiences using GPT to transform images, but it can be a real process at times, or sometimes an outright impossibility.
I’ll probably never finish (or post) this little article, but…
https://piefed.social/post/1651948Wow, I guess it can finally replicate a five-minute photoshop job.
Big Triangle doesn’t want you to know you can cut pizza this way, wake up
Regarding this pizza, I get it. I really do. But I feel like I would learn how to sharpen a pizza cutter before I would decide to do this.
