For those of you who are reading me via RSS feed, could you please head to my site and answer the question.
65% of Americans eat their pizza with a knife and fork...which...just...isn't right.* It's Un-American, and much like the fight against Prop 8, it is important to educate those who are...well...wrong on this issue.
It's not that they are bad people, just wrong on this issue.
Thank you in advance.
*I also firmly believe that those who read this blog are a lot smarter then those 65% of the American Public who are doing it wrong.
(in another matter entirely...someone posted a picture of me from fifteen years ago on FB. Really? Was that necessary?)
I see...so, not only do I not eat my pizza correctly, but I am not very smart for not reading this blog all of the time...hmmm...
ReplyDeleteI prefer knife and fork or with my hands based on pizza temperature and the setting. Folding it not only decreases the chance you will savor the pizza, but if it is hot or greasy...burns and stains are possible.
And, really, is the picture that bad?
It's not that the picture was that bad, it is just that that person "died" a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteThough, I am jealous of the hair.
Re: Pizza
ReplyDeleteFor poll's sake, I've answered "Folded, with your hands" because the "fold" aspect implies Neapolitan-derived "New York style" which, in my heart of hearts, is the One True Pizza. However, this style is neither widely available across the US, nor is it the preferred style of vast swaths of the country. Of course, all those people are wrong, but what are ya gonna do? Send Tony from Bensonhurst out on a good will tour, building coal-fired brick ovens in every town? Have him deliver PowerPoint presentations demonstrating that pies should rest directly on the bottom of the oven and not in an intermediary pan? Introduce a Reinheitsgebot bill in each Statehouse that mandates only the use of mozzarella on a pie?
Re: FB picture posting standards
I believe the "scan an old pic" FB'r shares the same culpability as the "snap a current pic and upload it to FB seconds later" FB'r. Does their use of different hardware irk you or is your sense of image control violated? What about the distinction between a clearly posed photo (with the implicit understanding that it will be distributed) and a candid in semi-public circumstances? Do you feel Phelps'd? Does this affect your stance on Rep. King's "Camera Phone Predator Alert Act"? Even if this bill passes and you somehow manage to hear a tiny *click* across a crowded bar room, what are your options if you don't grant consent for you image to be captured? Ask them nicely to delete it? Glass 'em with a pint of cider and stomp on their iPhone?
By the way, nice "flock of hair".
Hey! Leave the iPhone out of it!!! :-)
