How many pizza places are there actually around here?

My friend and I are looking for you know, good pizza.

So far we've found okay pizza.

I'd ask about people's preferences, but, I feel like even here that's kinda divisive? Cause everyone likes super different things on pizza, and I'm kinda willing to try most things. Depends sometimes.


Thanks for any suggestions!

I mean there's no bad pizza
It's pizza
Flat bread, sauce, cheese and then whatever makes your tongue happy

But now I'm curious: depends on what?

Have you not had absolutely bad pizza before? Not even toppings wise, like place wise. Some places overcook a pizza or undercook it. I've had absolutely awful pizza before and not even a good sauce or topping could save it.

I'm kinda iffy on certain toppings. Jalapenos are classic for some people, but don't really do anything for me, or anchovies. Its just kinda there.

[demaelition]

But you knew it was still pizza
It's hard to break pizza
Undercooked is pretty bad, though, I'll give you that

Anchovies are pretty salty and then if there's salt in the bread and the sauce, then it just gets to be too much.
I don't think I've tried jalepenos on pizza before, I'm not usually into setting my face on fire.
But I get it, that's how I feel about 'four cheese' like after a while it's all just cheese

[heyunderoos]

I knew it was pizza since I ordered pizza. Then I got not good pizza, like abomination pizza. There is no recovery for undercooked pizza, not even a lot of marinara can save that.

I've tried jalapenos before, it kinda didn't do much for me. Too afraid to do anchovies. Agreed on four cheese. People talk about how four cheese is like... a flavor journey, but if you melt all of it together it's just greasy cheese. Cheese lump of death essentially.

[demaelition]

Wow that pizza probably deserved better.
Did it try to eat YOU? Cause if not, it's not much of an abomination.

And I agree. Plus I get kinda resentful about the anchovies cause everyone thinks they're funny when they're like 'Oh I bet you like fish.' First of all, I don't. But if I did, those aren't fish. Gotta hand it to the greasy lump of death, though: if I had to pick a way to go.

Well, either that or way too many donuts.

[heyunderoos]

The pizza probably thought about eating me, but didn't get the chance. My friend Ned tried a few bites, it didn't go over super great to say the least.

I feel like anchovies barely count as fish anymore. They're just like vessels to deliver salt to everything they touch.

Okay, either would be a pretty funny way to die, or a funny thing to go on a tombstone though.

[demaelition]

Okay fair. I bet my buddy Gregg would have eaten it.
Which isn't a vote of confidence.

Funny is the best way to go out. Followed by like meaningful or sacrificial I guess.
Most just die normally or for stupid reasons. Stupid's the worst way to go out.

[heyunderoos]

Ned normally has better impulse control, but, his curiosity meant he had to know. Even if he regretted it.

For sure. It makes me think of those people who like... dying tripping over something or don't follow the directions and something goes really wrong.

[demaelition]

That's such a mood, man

Oh my god that last one. I mean that'll probably be me, but also I really hope I don't die to tripping or not being able to follow directions.

I died to electricity for like five seconds.
I saw a shark.

[heyunderoos]

Sometimes you just gotta do it, even if its a bad idea.

You might have to specify in your will to have whoever does the burial stuff to say you died in a cool way. Just incase? That's probably morbid to think about, but, this whole conversation is probably morbid to somebody.

Normally, I'd question that, but I died for like five years and came back. So I really can't question anything that much anymore?

What kind of shark was it though?

[demaelition]

Life's kinda morbid though, it's fine. Like life and death are the same coin, so nothing wrong with thinking about it now, we'll get there eventually.
I'm gonna write a will now, thanks.
Leave my computer and bass to someone cool

Ok wait
First of all it was Sharkle specifically, my computer helper program. He told me we had important work to do like right before I woke up

[She sends a snapshot of the bottom right hand corner of her laptop screen with a shark-like figure in it.]

Second of all, five years is completely different from five seconds. Like long enough to get buried.
Are you a zombie?

[heyunderoos]

Some people get really weird if your too morbid. Like... one of my classmates talks about these cool but morbid things and she gets looks for it.

[Peter also has a crush on MJ, so he's more invested in all of her morbid facts about death, life, and murder.]

Sharkle looks cool! Probably jarring to see him in a between life and death moment though. It was probably your brain filling in a blank.

I'm not a zombie, it was a whole... thing. Aliens had a magic rock that when used could make people turn to dust. So, the alien guy turned half the universe to dust for five years. The Avengers reversed that, and we're alive again.
