  1. I highly doubt there is that much of a price discrepancy between Aldi's nationwide. Hard disagree my friend.
  2. But all of those conditions are satisfied by take-and-bakes, which are just as cheap and bigger/better than frozen pizzas. Shit, the take-and-bakes at Aldi are the size of an extra large, and they're only like $6! Even if you need a regular, economical pizza option, frozen still isn't worth it!
  3. Fuck out of here, no it is not. Even Home Run Inn - the best of the frozen pizzas - tastes like the type of pizza you'd get from a skating rink snack stand.
  4. But as you pointed out, the time/price considerations of 'fuck it' food are easily met with shitty delivery pizza.
  5. @Xbob42, answer for your Home Run Inn fandom.
  6. The Aldi near me recently carried Home Run Inn frozen pizzas, which are often highly ranked in terms of frozen pizzas. So, I decided to buy one! And it's making me question the point of 'frozen pizza' as a medium. Don't get me wrong! It is far and away the best frozen pizza I've ever had; nothing else tops it. But in terms of overall quality, it's pretty mediocre; I would say any chain delivery place would be just as good if not better. So really, what's the point? Is a $7 frozen pizza that takes 20 minutes to bake really worth it compared to a $12 chain delivery that takes 30 minutes to arrive? I honestly don't think so! If I'm deep in the throes of desperation, I'd rather pay the extra $5/10 minutes and get a better pizza. In short, fuck frozen pizza.
  7. Nah; between the World Cup and the Olympics, the USWNT has a pretty good following. And given how successful they are, they probably outpace the USMNT in terms of general popularity (guarantee more people know who Crystal Dunn is as opposed to the USMNT left back).
  8. But we are talking about social inputs and outputs. If someone is an asshole and socially marginalized as a result, does that constitute punishment? If I wrong someone who I am close to and the relationship ends as a result, does that constitute punishment? It's curious that you would argue against social norms given your moderation of this board embraces them. For example you've stated jokes about suicide or asking people if they are autistic are verboten - and you've deleted posts/threads to that end - but few people would say those things should be codified into law. We just rely on the assumption that colloquially recognized social standards will properly identify and react to them.
  9. I fail to see how that is the case; you can care about the 'norms' of interpersonal social interaction while also believing that the state shouldn't codify them into law.
  10. RSF bemoans the use of mockery against lower social classes, yet happily utilizes mockery (and worse) against those of higher social classes, completely oblivious to the fact that the latter legitimizes and normalizes the former. It's almost as if once you disregard socials norms and civil discourse, you can't call on them for any degree of protection. Then again, when you are a white, well-educated straight man, why worry? Even in the most toxic of social environments, you are perfectly safe. Enjoy your cruelty, @RedSoxFan9. I'm sure the marginalized groups you purportedly care about enjoy the social environment you love to feed.
  11. David Chang stans Domino's and Anthony Bourdain loved KFC mac-n-cheese, but you know, congratulations on telling us you haven't had Taco Bell in over ten years.
  12. Got to say, the 'hEs MiSsING a SwOrD!!!!' comments all over the internet are doing a good job of distinguishing between who read the books, and who is illiterate.
  13. The showrunner is a woman and pissed off scores of Online White Men looooong before these photos were released, so she has a lot of potential.
  14. Correct; in the books he keeps it stored, and only takes it out for especially rare situations.
