    One of the most annoying parts of online dating is the fact that there are a ton of profles that treat the textboxes as though their ordering pizza (mataphorically). Like they’ll use the first box to say that you must like cats, the second to say that you should have a moustache and the third to say you need to be adventurous, as if the point is to type in your ideal mate and have them materialize at a local park for you to meet.

    Having a pizza in the quiet of you home is nice and all, but having a pizza while you hear a loud argument (fight?) in Italian coming out of the kitchen while you sit at the terrace, that’s the real deal !

    Top that with an Aperol Spritz or a nice glace of win and you’re in heaven.

        I just hate typing on the phone, I should just connect my mechanical keyboard next time…

        Obviously what I meant exactly is “un verre de gros rouge qui tâche remplie jusqu’au tippy-top” but there isn’t a good translation for that.

    I don’t get why she said “hey wait a minute”, but I think this is a really good idea.

    Pick your perfect pizza with intricate detail, down to the specific brand of olives used, and even the type of water filtration system used for the dough, and then the app searches every pizza place in the area to find your perfect pie, places the order, and arranges delivery.

    I would actually use food delivery apps if they worked like this, instead of having to pick the restaurant first and then browsing their menu. I want to pick the food first and then get shown compatible restaurants that serve it. Then and only then would they be worth the premium price to me. Of course this will never happen because restaurants don’t provide the kind of intricate detail that I so desire regarding their cooking processes. Trade secrets and whatnot. But as a foodie, I can dream.
