Note I did not buy any food for myself.

To head off questions:

  1. No, I couldn’t cook for her. I’m suffering from a long-term illness where I can’t eat solid foods and am extremely smell sensitive. My wife is at a funeral, so I had to order food.

  2. She’s extremely picky and refused to let me order anything but pizza.

  3. We live outside of town, in a not very big town, with very few pizza delivery options, and they’re all at least this expensive.

  4. No, I didn’t also have to buy her the cheesy bread or the second topping or the sauces, but it’s nice to get my daughter a treat and that is no excuse for the order being that expensive.

  5. We’re in Indiana, so this should be ludicrous in terms of pricing. This used to be the pricing I would expect when we lived in L.A. and ordered from a good local place rather than a chain.

      Wow! You also figured out my huge con to tell everybody I’m sick when I’m not. And as a consolation prize for figuring it out second, you get to have an entire paste of what I said to the first guy about how it’s all a big con. Congratulations on both of you for being Sherlock Holmes.

      I guess I made up all the posts I made about it in Casual Conversation you’re free to look up, including all the ones I posted while I was at the Mayo Clinic.

      It’s been a long con going on since December of 2022.

      After all, nothing on the internet is true.

      Here you go, here’s a link where I made up being at the Mayo Clinic: https://lemmy.world/post/13867999

      Here’s a link on another forum where I completely made up having my gall bladder removed and how that didn’t work: https://forums.mst3k.com/t/whats-your-problem-a-thread-for-griping-part-2-part-1/28111/2520?u=flyingsquid

      I’m happy to show you other examples of me completely making this up.

      Edit: sorry, you don’t get to see my medical records, but I can probably arrange a video chat with one of my doctors if you’d like. Of course, that will probably just a fake doctor that I’m completely making up.

      Edit 2: Check out my amazing Photoshop skills!
