Domino's is my go-to pizza place, I find Pizza Hut tends to have chewy, overcooked crusts.

CommieGIR posted:gently caress you all, I like Pizza Hut. I actually had one for the first time in 3 or so years recently. I felt a longing for greasy pizza so we ended up in a Pizza Hut. I ordered a dirty cheese crust pepperoni monstrosity and when it came out I was actually disappointed. It wasn't the greasy mess I desired but a much more upmarket pizza which didn't have the distinctive taste of a greaseball Pizza Hut. Sad times.

T1g4h posted:You and me both buddy. Pizza Hut is way better than people claim. I like Pizza Hut too, but the local franchise somehow finds it completely impossible to ever get an order right, so I gave up and just get Papa Johns. It's not like I make difficult orders either - "Large sausage and pepperoni". Somehow it's not possible to actually make one of those though I guess. If I'm in town and want a seriously greasy (and very yummy) pizza though, I got for Streets of New York. For whatever reason I really like their pizza.

Pizza hut used to do great stuffed crust then changed it a while ago and then it was gross. Dominos seem to have stopped doing their cheese & bacon stuffed crust, which was loving awesome, but did make me burp like crazy for the 5+ hours after eating it. Papa John's stuffed crust is pretty sexual. I'm craving that poo poo pretty bad right now. T1g4h posted:Join us. Join usssss! Tide posted:ONE OF US ONE OF US ONE OF US I haven't seen Mad Max yet.

Tide posted:Even if you could say "If you make below X dollars a year, you are exempt from paying tax", you would still have opposition from the people that earn a living off the tax code as it is. Imagine how many hundreds of thousands of jobs would become instantly obsolete if the tax code simply said "If income > X, then pay 10 percent" (or whatever arbitrary number). Everyone pays, at the same rate, every time. Doesn't matter if it's a cheeseburger or a yacht. But as you say, that would be too simple. Tide posted:My Lord...This thread is all over the drat place.

Noise Complaint posted:Also I pity people without 15 awesome pizza joints within a stones throw. That's the only thing Connecticut is good for. Was going to post exactly this. I don't know why any of the national chain places exist here. There's an awesome little pizza place just a five minute walk from my house or I can drive ten minutes to a Pepe's. If I really want to I can drive 45 minutes to New Haven and have what ever awesome pizza I want. I've never been to Sally's or Bar and I need to fix that. Modern Apizza is my current personal favorite for the New Haven area. I went to the Dertiot Belle Isle GP this weekend and had great time despite the lovely weather. Stadium Super Trucks is the most  race series. On the way to my friends apartment I saw Dodge finishing up an order for Holdbrooks.  I need to see Fury Road in the theater again while I have the chance.

ilkhan posted:Yeah, but the tax code should read "if money changes hands, give x% of it to the gov." and have x be a really low number. That really only works in terms of the govt getting their "fair" share if people don't use cash. Transactions between individuals would happen with cash and go unreported. The use of paper currency would skyrocket, as would counterfeit operations. People would stop using credit to purchase anything because it leaves a paper trail. Black market sales would go through the ROOF.

Pineapple is awesome on Pizza. It is also awesome in curries, stir fries and in pasta sauce. Tide posted:Anyway, are you saying that Amazon doesn't pay tax, period, or they just don't pay sales tax to the state in which the product was ordered from? Both? Because if it's simply sales tax, why would they fight that? I am temporarily ignoring that me having to pay a sales tax on goods from Amazon would make it somewhere in the neighborhood as what I would pay locally (depending on what it is, of course)? Because they wouldn't be paying the sales tax, I would. It isn't the sales tax they so much miss out on over here but the corporation tax. A normal UK business has to pay tax on my profits. Amazon manage to do something sneaky with their reported profit due to being a massive multinational with excellent accountants so that their reported profit stays low and they don't pay much UK corporation tax on it. Us normal people are unable to exploit the same laws to our benefit.

Only chain that delivers to my house is Papa Johns, not great but there's usually coupons so it's cheap. There's a little Mom and Pop place that makes some pretty good pizza, really good BBQ chicken pizza and their meat special is awesome. Two family run places by my parents that make amazing pizza, always order when I'm home. I was surprised when I ordered pizza in Germany last year. Very thing flaky crust, comes out un-cut on a big plate. Really good topping combos. SFH1989 posted:Stadium Super Trucks is the most

Cool. I start losing weight again and THEN you all talk about pizza. Right about now I'd eat any pizza from any chain, I don't even care. And I may be easy to please but I actually like Domino's thin crust. God I love thin crust pizzas. God I miss fat and deliciousness. Well off to eat 4lbs of kale because it tastes better than dying alone

Actually, I complain but in all honesty I've really gotten used to it, I even enjoy it. I'm roughly following the nutritarian / eat-to-live thing because I like its focus on really good nutrition. It's tons of greens, veggies (raw & steamed), beans, onions, mushrooms, fruits, berries, seeds, nuts... pretty much paleo, I guess. Very little meat or animal stuff. Already lost ~20lbs in maybe 5 weeks. Turns out even if you try to eat KINDA healthy, if you have your rear end parked in a chair smoking massive piles of weed every night, you gain weight back that you worked hard to lose. I'll eat veggies if I can keep the weed. Last time around I went from 353lbs down to 199.9999. Gained back about 60 over the last few years, and now I've clawed my way back to ~240. Still want pizzas and oils and all the fattest foods.

I always assumed it contains actual tea in the same way as a chicken and mushroom pot noodle contains chicken. Despite this it is also my favourite soft drink (the lemon flavour over the peach one though) along with ginger beer.

ilkhan posted:Calling a flat tax regressive flat out ignores the dictionary definition of fair. (15% of 10,000) is still 1/10th of (15% of $150,000), etc. How the hell is taxing 10% off a struggling family, while giving some utterly ridiculously rich dick an enormous tax cut in any shape or form fair? Flat taxes directly hit the living poo poo out of poor families and absolutly give huge tax cuts to the wealthy. That is NOT how a healthy society works. A actual functional society works like Norway or Finland, where the tax burden to run said functional society is spread on those that can support it. Does that mean I would need to pay 49% on every dollar earned over 180,000? Yes and I am fine with that. I'll be earning 180,000 after all. This isn't some dept of Anglo Saxon or libertarian Galt Gulch. This is the real world and the definition of fair has a different meaning.
