I have never seen these spellings before! Interesting.
I've never tried it, but I'd eat this crust
How can you say you love pizza if you won't even eat the crust?
Yeah, here in the UK we write it 'Shawarma' (I think). I've seen it written 'shwarma' elsewhere, though.I always forget the English spelling, I only knew it was spelled different because of the Avengers.
I've never tried it, but I'd eat this crust:![]()
this phrasing seems familiar
My favourite kind of pizza is any.
Take it from someone on the west coast stuck with our inferior dough, NY pizza is superior. Plus it's so damn cheap. I miss New York.People say NY pizza is the best I can't really say since it's all I ever known >.>
Especially pineapple.
Oh boy.. Lol
this phrasing seems familiar
Yeah, I've started to notice too and it makes me feel old lol. But yeah, it is all very interesting and surprising to actually speak with industry folks who's been in the industry for so long, come on GAF and communicate. To know these guys are in their 50's though, that's amazing!

Hawaiian Pizza is gross. I said it...
I'll fight anyone who thinks they're bad.

i want to move to chicago and try there deep dish pizza......oh no are we really starting this topic again
You are one of the best people on here. You are really nice and kind. I respect the hell out of you. I love your posts. And you were really kind to me when I had my cancer. I'll never forget that.
And so to me, it's really nice to see what you look like. Because you look just as amazing as the person you are inside.I also know the issues you have been going through, and again, if you ever ever ever need anything, I'm a PM away man. Anything for you. *hugs*

I know how hard the struggle with depression and anxiety can be but there really isn't any reason for insecurity. I agree with Azula, you're a cutie! so hang in there man
also congrats on succesfully battling your addiction, hope it'll get even better for you
To be honest, I'm not much of a topping man anyway. I like my plain ol' cheese and tomato pizza.

I... Never eat the crust.
i'm so sorry i brought the conversation here
Cold pizza is legit.
This one is better since you have a slight smile working for you, whereas the other has more serious face.ANYWAY, as an aside, I finally found a newer image with me compared to this avatar which is well over a year old. Do you think this one is better or worse?

Man thanks for the support, I really don't know how to eloquently express what it means to hear that. I love my fiancee and she tells me nice things, and so does my family. But the way my mind works, I still sometimes go to the negative assumption, which is that people are just being kind to avoid hurt feelings and that my fiancee and family says those things because they love me rather than it necessarily being true. I realize that's a bit insulting to people trying to be really nice to me, but it's hard to fight to feeling ya know? It's been so deeply embedded into my head for so long I still have vestiges of that thought process.
The other issue is because I left behind drugs as well as other habits that were not healthy for my growth as a person, I had to similarly cut out a lot of my old friends from my life. So my circle of real life friends has been greatly reduced as a result of that, and adjusting to that has been difficult. Because before I could be reasonably sure my friends would have a better chance of telling me like it is, but I lost that sort of equilibrium when I had to abandon ship the way I did.
I hope this makes sense. It really feels nice talking about it and saying these things to people that aren't just my fiancee and my family, because it makes me feel like maybe people have noticed my changes and maybe people do think I'm not beyond redemption. Irl people that know of my drug addiction in the past have often judged me quite harshly, so I tend to stop talking about it.
I know it seems like maybe I should be better adjusted than I am, but my 20s were hellish for what I did to myself and the demons I was fighting and so every day does seem like a new dawn. I guess I'm just so glad to be past that part of my life that I find I appreciate everything more. Maybe it's also I'm getting older, but I find I take so much more pleasure in how beautiful life can be. And the counterpoint to that is I also find it hurts me more deeply to read about the tragedies, though I do so because of the causes I'm committed to.
Anyway let me stop rambling about myself, I'm a bit over excited to do so because it's been a while before I had a honest heart to heart about these issues with people who weren't the same two or three individuals, and it's nice to hear outside perspectives.

We talking Pizza?
Pineapple has no reason to be on a pizza. Go home Pineapple. Go be in a fruit salad or something.
I don't really like crusts. Too dry. It's fine if I have something to dip them in though (like a barbecue sauce, not the garlic and herb stuff that comes with Dominos pizza).
The more meat the better
Fancy crusts are stupid. No I don't want a hot dog to be the crust. No I don't want it cheesy. No I don't want it to be a miniature hamburger for every slice.
Cold pizza is disgusting

Looking good brother man. I also know the battles associated with drugs and depression. I do have one beef though... Is that a Yankees hat? The coloring of the logo threw me off, I was about to compliment you on your non existent Red Sox Cap![]()
