I've had pizza was was so full of toppings and cheese that it was impossible to eat with your hand, unless you wanted crap all down your hand.

Is Staten Island part of NYC?

It's all about the proper NY fold.

I'm not even from NY, and generally hate most things about it, but drat if they don't know their pizza and the proper way to eat said pizza.

Any toppings/cheese that do slough off are then picked up and eaten on their own.

Hence the see through orange stains. Pizza from just the street lever places you get slices from, that works, but homemade, maybe I just put too much on mine.

Compared to his contemporaries, Carnegie is pretty much a saint, I mean the Homestead strikes also occurred when that prick Frick was in charge of US Steel iirc.

That and Carnegie also provided a lot of his wealth to educating the working class with his libraries and funding his museum. Now I'll admit I'm biased as a volunteer in the Carnegie Museum's Paleontology department.

I'll never understand it, sure eating pizza with your hands is fine, but sometimes I like to feel like I'm eating more than I got

Yeah most of the big industrialists were ruthless but taking a vacation to Scotland and letting Frick deal with the strike is basically why Carnegie was my least favorite of them.

I do find it funny, that if he were alive today he would probably be lambasted by the Right Wing Media for the philosophies that he had and his "Gospel of Wealth" would probably be laughed at.

Yea, I knew all about it, but looking up that book, it says that everyone in the upper tiers of the Nazi party were all gays and that is why they did so much bad stuff, because gay = bad. Any actual persecution of gays was just to gay men who acted too fem.

Oh god, Stoners are the most unfunny people.

Huhuh 420!

Ah gotcha.

I guess the irony is the more homophobic right wingers tend to be gay themselves and act the way they do as a form of overcompensation.

Oh yeah, I haven't head Apple Jacks in near two decades, that would probably be easier. I would think that just adding green colouring to milk would work so that's pretty easy, I was just amused by someone spending an hour painstakingly separating differently coloured children's cereal for a two second bit.
