When my friend realized that her girlfriend considered "Pepperoni tastes good" a good rebuttal to "You're offending me on a religious level", they broke up. We've all reconciled and are good friends since, but the story gets told again and again for the lulz. |
If thats what you consider lulz... you need cooler friends.

Not sure if there is much to this myth, but I recently heard from a couple sources that it was recently discovered the ability to break asparagus down and produce that enzyme that makes your urine stink is genetically determined. (As in some people don't get stinky pee after eating asparagus...) Similarly, the gene to detect that odor is also limited by genes. Supposedly some of us can smell that stink and others can't.|

Though the double blind study with numerous unwitting volunteers is actually pretty easy to imagine, it seems everyone who has ever been in the room when this particularly recent (to my knowledge) myth or assertion is brought up--they all say something to the effect of "whelp, I've got both those genes."
Conversely, I sometimes think the genes that determine one's fondness for role play tend to be much rarer... we're gingers amongst a sea of brunettes.

At least I was able to get the one guy on our lab team to agree to half sausage/half cheese, even the Indian guy (who wanted pepperoni) was getting mad at him for causing problems when everyone wanted to order a pizza since we didn't have time to all go somewhere to eat.

There are way more pizza arguments that I think the OP suspected...

And no icing on the bathroom walls here. Any roleplay is of a single type, not both at once.
On that note, i'm not surprised i saw posts about 'variant' applications of the new booster's pushup emote within hours of it being released. The instant i saw the video in the release i expected as much.

i make stuff...
Essentially the idea that roleplaying is like pizza with everyone liking their own mix of ingredients is a nice one. I like pizza. I like roleplaying. I've never roleplayed a pizza though, now there's a challenge.

I don't know. I like all meat on my pizza, I really would rather not have that in my RP. But that's just me.

Ms Spectre LOVES anchovies. Hers, thus, if a harrowed path, as no man before me would ever allow one of these vile salted sea vermin to so much as brush up against his share of the pie.
Before I met her, I had never given anchovies a try. But she seemed to love them. And she loved me. So I thought I should at least sample them once, based on that. Of course, had I been thinking more clearly, I would have realized that she has shown a preference to love things that were terrible. And anchovies, I can assure you, are foul, filthy little spooge sacks that leave a man retching for hours after they are tasted. The slightest touch of this salted strip of fish meat will spoil the flavor of an entire slice of pizza, and possibly the one next to it as well. They are absolutely that bad. I **** you not. A crime against pizza.
Nonetheless, she loves them. And I love her. And so, when we order out for pizza, whatever else we decide on, I get her a bin of the loathsome things, on the side. She can thus apply them however she likes to her portion, without rendering my meal inedible. Truly, ours is a love that will echo through the ages.

I'm now craving anchovy pizza so very much, but it's half past three in the morning, here. :-( Serves me right for reading the forums instead of going to bed, I guess.

Death is part of my attack chain.
This thread makes me think of that one Garfield (animated version) episode. He's met a group of people who all agree on everything, and finally after getting fed up he offers pizza. Immediately they all start fighting about the toppings. He's not surprised in the slightest.
My favorite pizza would be a double-decker or stuffed crust, with sausage, black olives, and mushrooms.
My preferred RP is in the course of a regular mission, as opposed to standing around in Pocket D or under Atlas. And I'm only the audience, playing the strong silent type, because I'm really terrible at RP apart from appreciating it.

Depending on where you live, you might actually BE married by now.

And some people enjoy eating pizza while naked.
Like me.
Personally, I like Bacon (not ham or Canadian bacon) and Cheddar Cheese on my thin crust pizza. Or, Canadian Bacon (ham works too) and black olives and mushrooms.
Or, for dessert, instead of the tomato sauce, I want vanilla pudding, with sprinkles of chocolate chips on top.
There I was between a rock and a hard place. Then I thought, "What am I doing on this side of the rock?"
And if they are in a city without a kosher restaurant, well the pizza place is using dishes and ovens that are traif. Going Half and Half on a pizza is no worse.
