When I go get a small calzone, mozz sticks, and a soda it’s $21. Fucking unbelievable.

where did you order from, the Burj Dubai?

I guess it’s $2.50 per topping for a “14 pizza. I had five toppings:

Onion
Mushroom
Sausage
Tomato
Garlic

Was the $45 pre tip?

Did any of your toppings count as two toppings?

Yes, pre tip. The sandwich was $11, which seems completely reasonable.

I didn't press. Part of me thinks they charged me for cheese.

But, honestly, this is why I rarely order pizza and won't for another few years.

a 14" pizza then is $21.50?

no fucking thanks

I didn't do all of the math or really investigate. Below is the link to their menu via yelp. I'm sure there are some administrative fees, delivery fees, and taxes in the total as well. All that said, $45 for a pizza and sandwich was a little irritating.

So you ate a full pizza and a sandwich for dinner one night?

The only benefit here is that I will be done at 4:30pm and I will actually be able to hang with my family for dinner.

It’s a thin crust pizza. They’re practically nothing.

Hopefully it's at least something interesting.

Thin crust is like half a pizza.

Often mentioned in this thread and one of my biggest irritants....that and people that rush into an elevator without letting people out first.

[Beefsteak1138]

My actual irritant of the day is that my car had a flat tire this morning, and my lug nuts had expanded slightly (apparently a common occurrence for my car) so it was a massive pain in the ass to put on the spare.

Interesting... so this also happens to cars as they age?

oh, I LOVE the "get to the stop sign two seconds after another car but that car still waves you through, and in your confusion you hesitate for a beat, and by the time you finally realize that the person is letting you through for some unknown reason, they changed their mind and are now driving through the intersection" dance!

In some Toyota's, yes.

I employ the scrocks method now. If someone waves you on when its their turn, act completely oblivious and just sit there until they go.

[YouNeverKnow25]

if the nuts are expanded it's best to give a real solid crank until they release

People who ride their bikes in the city but refuse to follow the rules of the road they are supposed and then curse everyone out when they almost die by not following said rules.

Ha! Tried that. I'm convinced that if I just sat there, so would the other car, ad infinitum.

But the second I roll forward, so does the other car... never fails.

I bike a bit, and I do not understand for the life of me why bikers choose to bike on the road if there's a sidewalk available on said road. get off the damn road!

But you're not supposed to be on the sidewalk in the city.

I have no issues with a bike taking up a lane in the city. The laws allows it, so it is what it is. But when they run reds and don't yield to pedestrians, then tell off everyone for not getting out of their way, they're the asshole.

true, I guess I wasn't thinking about a legit downtown area city. I live in the suburbs and most of the main roads have sidewalks that no one ever walks on, and bikers insist on riding in the road when there's no bike lane.

Oh ya, this is definitely more of an urban irritant.
