I saw someone else call this "gerrymandered pizza".

[–] ritswd 8 points 1 year ago

Damn, I came here to say this and you beat me to it! πŸ˜‚

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks, I hate it.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 year ago

Fucking gerrymandering

[–] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (4 children)
[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

At this point they're just gerrymandering the pizza

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe they tried to have each piece contain 5 slices, but gave up halfway through

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The should make one big pepperoni that fits the pizza. No more pepperoni pizza issues.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But then you still need to cut the pepperoni tho

[–] Omegamanthethird 2 points 1 year ago

I disagree. It just makes cutting easier. One pepperoni per piece. It's all one piece.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

this was my thought as well. I imagine they probably intentionally did it like that just to be infuriating.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Right?!?! What kind of decision making went on here

[–] solstice 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hey, my first repost on lemmy! This is shamelessly lifted from r/pizza crimes a few weeks ago. And the top comment there was about gerrymandering too! This is a big moment for me, I think I'm officially a lemmian.

[–] MargotRobbie 8 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Current preferred term is "Lemming".

[–] solstice 7 points 1 year ago

Dang so obvious how did I miss that?

Lemming is kind of derogatory though no? Like someone who will follow the group think and do whatever the hive says - oh ok nm yeah that works ;)

[–] Omegamanthethird 2 points 1 year ago

I prefer "Lemurs" actually.

[–] monkeytennis 10 points 1 year ago (3 children)

This reminds me of staying overnight at a friend's house when I was a kid, and discovering a slightly sinister family habit, like cutting pizza with scissors or everyone drinking hot tea with dinner

[–] Grassgrowz 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

lmao my family and i do both of those things

[–] monkeytennis 2 points 1 year ago

No judgement here :D

[–] Ashhwaghandaa 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I cut my pizza with kitchen scissors. My knives aren’t sharp enough and I don’t have to transfer it to a cutting board. And drinking warm water with a meal aids in digestion :D but I don’t do that lol

[–] monkeytennis 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's that small moment when you realise other people do things differently.

I remember being a bit horrified with the amount of handling that goes on with pizza+scissors. Guess I was considered one of the family...

[–] Ashhwaghandaa 2 points 1 year ago

LOL they initiated you!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I've been to pizzarias in Italy that cut with scissors...

And what's wrong with hot tea with dinner?

[–] monkeytennis 1 points 1 year ago

Nothing wrong with either, though I can't speak for Italian pizza cutting techniques.

It's still pretty unusual to offer a 10yo a brew with his roast dinner. I'm sure my friends found it strange that we drank coffee before bed, but there you go.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 year ago

Cutting a pepperoni pizza is always a lose-lose situation

[–] lemmy_party 9 points 1 year ago

Simultaneously OCD trigger and OCD in action

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Bless it's heart

[–] realitista 6 points 1 year ago

I'm okay with it.

[–] Defaced 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh great the reposts begin...

[–] [email protected] 12 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Hey, someone needs to deliver content... it's not like I have anything original to offer πŸ™ƒ

[–] JesusTheCarpenter 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree, 70% of Reddit memes, pics, etc are stolen anyways. I don't see a reason we couldn't steal some of it to boost our content.

[–] Simplificity 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Actually better to do it, before the good contents are lost in Redd** forever

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Necessary evil.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

This is madness! πŸ˜‚

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

If you look closely the salami pieces are cut the same way. This is a pizza fractal!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

32 pepperoni pieces, divided into 8 slices. Is it just me or is it even more infuriating that those slices are not evenly sized?

[–] dimspace 2 points 1 year ago

I cannot fathom why they did not do what normal people do and rearrange the pepperoni prior to putting it in the oven.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

It's not just you... πŸ™ˆ

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Thanks, I hate it! 😳

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

But the pepperoni is already cut. It's already too late!

[–] Crackhappy 0 points 1 year ago

Sharding pizza.
