The "Is It Just Me...?" thread

[wallyb]

What are these "clothes" you speak of?


Is it just me, or has the price of Papa John's pizza gone up a ridiculous amount over the past year? (I don't like PJ, but it's the only place that delivers here.....despite there being another pizza place literally about 6 doors down......but I won't bore you with details. I guess that's the price you pay for living on the border of 2 different zip codes.) ANYhoo......I paid over 17 bucks for a large 2-topping pizza yesterday! Last year I could've gotten the same thing for less than 13!

We have cheaper pizza here in Boston honey.

Are you using "pizza" as a code word for something else? I'd like to visit Boston again.

We have cheaper pizza here too, some of which is 10 times tastier than PJ's. (I like "mom-n-pop" neighborhood places.) Unfortunately most of them were closed after 7 last night due to the holiday....... Plus I was too lazy to go out and pick it up myself.

That's no fair. I want free pizza. I had my first real NYC pizza last year and it was great. Not quite as artery-clogging and tasty as a real Chicago deep-dish......but still very good. *dodges tomatoes from the east coast pizza brigade*

Putting on clothes for ANYTHING wears you out!

And averting our eyes from your nakedness wears the rest of us out!

You're quick.
I'm flying in tonight.

If you are in the Orlando area, and have a car, I have finally found decent NYC style pizza! Little joint right across the street from Gatorland! The guy makes great pizza!

I'm always afraid to drive in cities I'm visiting because I tend to get lost in my own back yard. I wonder how much one of those conveniently-placed taxis outside the Poly would charge for a trip to the GatorLand area. If the pizza's good enough, I'd be prepared to take out a loan.

I'm a Sunday driver. You know the car that's only driven to church on Sundays? That's me....except it's work, not church. I only drive locally and I sweat bullets if I need to drive on the highway....Funny thing is: I'm a good driver and if I'm on the highway I'm fine..it's just the anticipation of it makes me ill....

So now you all know my "dirty little secret".

ONE of them.

It's the one I'm most afraid to tell people...

So YOU'RE the one that goes 35mph on the highway, eh? I don't mind going on the highway. I just need to be told exactly where and when to turn because when I drive I don't really know how to get somewhere unless I've driven it about 100 times. The weird thing is if you were to put a blindfold on me and spin me around I could tell you which way was north, south, east and west.......but I couldn't tell you how to get to the road that takes you any of those directions. (The roads here in COWlumbus are sad. You'll rarely find a straight road. They either zig-zag all over the place or they change names when you least expect it.)

I'm bad at finding parking spots too, probably because I have problems looking for spots and driving at the same time. (The same goes for reading street signs.) Most of the time if I'm in a parking lot I'll just paruse around the available spots that are farthest from the doors. That way I don't have to worry about running anyone over while I'm looking. I guess I have a problem with multi-tasking.

 

[rosiep]

No, I drive fast...it's the merging part that gets me. Back in NY..no one lets you in and I had an accident. Portland is not nearly as manic...but I still don't like doing it.
