The New Generation of Pizza Skimping!

[Navaros]

some of you may recall my brilliant pizza/fast food threads of yesteryear. i have noticed a new vile trend of the same nature. it is the new generation of pizza skimping!

as if it were bad enough that almost all sellers of pizza skimp on the toppings & cheese by default, things have now reached an all-time low!

to screw the honest pizza buyer like me, all pizza sellers are now rolling the crust in such a way that the crust actually takes up 1/5 - 2/5 of the mass of the pie itself. this my friends, is yet another evil corporate act of debauchery meant to screw the honest citizen hard without him even noticing.

you may not have noticed this yet. it took me a while. i was wondering my pizzas didn't seem as big as they used to. so i studied them intently, until i discovered this dirty little secret and found out exactly what was different. it's the crust conspiracy!

something needs to be done about this ***NOW*** before it gets worse. pretty soon, every time you order a pizza, 4/5 of the mass of that pizza will be nothing but crust. this Evil must end.

for those of you who are gonna laugh at me for making this thread or make fun of me: all i have to say to you is - GROW UP! i have high standards, and i expect any food product that i pay for to be made properly and with care, most especially pizza!

Why don't you start some protest group? I'm sure new members would flock in by the masses ::)

Why not bake your own pizzas?

[Nyarlathotep]

Nav, like Cyborg stated, you can make your own pizza, which in my opinion is far better then those from the general pizza delivery companies. It's ver easy and takes approx. the same amount of time to make that you have to wait for your ordered one..

I get one of those pre-made thingies... Freschetta... thats a good pizza.

[quoudam72]

Just order a different type pie crust you do know you have a choice.

[ordos45]

I like crust...but I occasionally make my own...scary thought I know, me cooking.

Navaros. A free ( ;D) hint for you:

Buy Grand Theft Auto - Vice City.

Play the game, and try to deliver the pizza's. Crush everyone in your way.

Or shoot the person who sells them :)

do you have costco's in your area? they are like 18" pizza's with 5 pieces to a pizza :). i love the crust, it is the best part. then the sauce. when i was little, we just ordered pizza with extra crust and extra sauce, nothing else. i guess it's cause were italian but still... ;D

no costco's here in Canada :( all our stores suck. just like our currency.

Timenn, i've been doing that lately, coincidentally. that Death Row Mission is a real agonizing POS - i had to do it over 50 times! (due to AI bugs and such). the Pizza Bike is pretty cool tho. except once on the mission i delivered 45+ Pizzas, then was sent out to deliver pizzas to 6 people on one run, but only given 5 pizzas ffs! needless to say, i ran out of time due to no fault of my own.

[Inoculator9]

Lol, I'd kill for a pizza right now...

[Navaros]

I'd kill for a pizza right now...

make it one of the crust conspirators. each month they are trying to reduce the surface area of your pizza with more and more crust. the last few pizzas i've ordered all had 25-35% less surface area than normal. all such conspirators are worthy of death.

[Inoculator9]

LOL ;D It will be, then I'll order one from Dominos... there's are really good ;)

[Cyborg]

I don't know if "Peppes pizza" work outside of Norway, but their pizzas are so good that when you taste them, the world around you dissapears and all you see is the pizza :D

[gryphon]

Have you thought of an even bigger conspiracy Navaros ?

Every time you call them and have placed your order. . . the guy on the phone jells to the back "one special pizza, we have an order from Navaros again".. ..

now that is just plain *disgusting*. i am surprised Gob would give Mod powers to a guy who makes such obscenely vulgar posts.

[King-Mega]

It's not disgusting. He's just showing his hatred ( others too from dune2k.com ) against you.

good job gryphon!

You guys are all wrong, the best pizza is not home made pizza. it is little caesar's pizza. it is so damn good, has anybody ever had it?

[ordos45]

Sorry I dislike Little Ceasar's pizza (love the crazy bread). I'm more of a Dominoes or Papa John's person.

[IxianMace]

If you're not satisfied with the quality of the Pizza's, why don't you complain to the people that actually produce them, and could fix the problem? I doubt anyone here would really be able to help you.

[Gobalopper]

We have Costco Nav, in Ontario they are sometimes called Price Club though.

Nav, that is what is known as humour. Acquire for yourself a side-order of sense thereof.

for someone who who prides himself on immaculate grammar, i think i just caught you ending a sentence with a preposition! now that's funny ;D

[Seal89999]

OMG what a disaster! The dam pizzas are getting smaller jesus what is the world comming to.................. :P

Lets all go protest now , LESS PIZZA LESS MONEY!!!!

;)

An end of sentence preposition is syntactically correct; stylistically, many frown upon its use. Nevertheless, thereof is one word and is not a preposition (moreover, the use of there+preposition is one way of avoiding the above problem and other stylistic inconveniences). It contains a prepositional suffix, granted, but can usually be replaced by the phrase 'of it' (note noun at end). Of course, this phrase is again stylistically dubious (although syntactically correct), and is especially so in the above sentence, which would sound rather unstable therewith.
