I'm pretty sure it is ten years in the future by now

And I laughed this time too

According to Hank Green, it's from 2007. So 16 years ago.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s):

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source; check me out at GitHub.

Yeah, I've been seeing this come up for at least 10 years. Still makes me ugly laugh every time.

Tumblr sure has a fucked up threading format.

Anyway, that’s a normal amount of beef if there were other toppings. For a pizza with nothing else you’d probably want to specify super-extra beef.

[–] Khotetsu@lib.lgbt 17 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It took me until today to realize that Tumblr's threading is the opposite of Reddit's.

I guess that's what happens, though, when you haven't really updated your format in 20 years and have always had the reputation of being the social media site for people who hate social media.

Props to the original CEO, though, for making a site that did exactly what he wanted: not be Facebook in any way, and allow him to post photos that people who followed him could see and allow him to follow people so he could see photos that they posted. Mission accomplished on that end.

You got me on that one, no clue. All I know is that Twitter is where basically all the crazies from Tumblr went after the "female presenting nipples" porn ban.

It's just old-school email format?

[–] squiblet@kbin.social 6 points 1 year ago

I suppose some programs might have done that? The way it starts with the oldest center-right and more narrow is unusual, plus the names of the authors being separated by long distances from what they wrote. I’m more familiar with a hierarchy that starts with the oldest on top left and narrows and expands towards the right, like essentially every web forum does.

I was there to witness it's majesty. Probably a year or two after it actually happened, but still I remember none pizza left beef

The amount of pixels in this image drops by 10x every time it's shared.

[–] bruhduh@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Wait till this image become "crispy"

I know what I’m doing tomorrow.

[–] Dave@lemmy.nz 25 points 1 year ago

Miss, you can't do that

[–] negativeyoda@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Still a classic

[–] GrammatonCleric@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

They should've tried it with right beef, they'd never see it coming

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This has gone so far as to be referenced in books. Sure they’re Tamsyn Muir, but still

[–] vivavideri@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Just out here, waiting for alecto the ninth.. twiddling my thumbs, you know.

[–] lolcatnip@reddthat.com 6 points 1 year ago

That jpeg needs to be euthanized.

Not so stroganoff

Is this common in America? To choose toppings separately?

Here in Brazil we choose from a list of "flavors", like margherita, pepperoni, portuguese, a moda, chicken and Catupiry, things like that

[–] brianorca@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It became more common when they started getting most orders from the web page, but even before that, over the phone you could order whatever toppings you want. (They just didn't advertise all the options back then.) They also gave the option of different toppings on left and right to keep a family happy when they have different tastes. And since it's now on a web page, they don't have to spend time on the phone while you explain it to them.

But even back in the 90's, my dad ordered a pizza with half no cheese. (He still had the sauce though.)

[–] ilinamorato@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

We have that too. At some pizza places they're called "speciality pizzas." But almost every pizza restaurant also lets you make your own by choosing ingredients individually; they're priced by number of toppings, with one sauce and cheese being included in the base price.

My wife actually discovered that this is pretty much just a North American thing a while back, incidentally. She lived with some Europeans and a Japanese person for a little while during college, and they were all shocked at the North American pizza ordering process.

I just wish i could get a thin crust peperoni pizza with light sauce and light cheese. Papa John's and Pizza Butt's website both error out when i try.

And I promise I don't have a sensory issue with food. Just, their sauce is gross and they put way too much cheese, amirite?

[–] jcg@halubilo.social 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I mean you might be right but that's the reason I order the stuff

[–] KrankyKong@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

To each their own. I like a good cracker crust with light cheese, but I know im in the minority here

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Hahaha yeah hmm how silly… who would do that…
