Things to Do While Ordering a Pizza
From ListOf
- Do not name the toppings you want. Rather, spell them out.
- Put an extra edge in your voice when you say "crazy bread."
- Put them on hold.
- Rattle off your order with a determined air. If they ask if you would like drinks with that, panic and become disoriented...
- Report a petty theft to the order taker.
- Ask for the guy who took your order last time.
- Be vague in your order. When they ask what you'd like on your pizza say, "Oh, a little of this, a little of that..."
- Say hello, act stunned for five seconds, then behave as if they called you.
- If they repeat the order to make sure they have it right, say "OK. That'll be $10.99; please pull up to the first window."
- Ask if you get to keep the pizza box. When they say yes, heave a sigh of relief.
- Put the accent on the last syllable of "pepperoni." Use the long "i" sound.
- Tell them to double-check to make sure your pizza is, in fact, dead.
- Say it's your anniversary and you'd appreciate if the deliverer hid behind some furniture waiting for your spouse to arrive so you can surprise him/her.
- Terminate the call with, "Remember, we never had this conversation."
- In your breathiest voice, tell them to cut the jazz about nutrition and ask if they have something outlandishly sinful.
- When the order is repeated, change it slightly. When it is repeated again, change it again. On the third time, say, "You just don't get it, do you?"
- When they say, "Will that be all?" snicker and say "We'll find out, won't we?"
- State your order and say that's as far as this relationship is going to get.
- If he/she suggests a side order, ask why he/she is punishing you.
- If he/she suggests anything, adamantly declare, "I shall not be swayed by your sweet words."
