Title: Do you like Swastika on Your Pizza?
Post by: MechAg94 on June 29, 2020, 09:41:41 PM
Little Caesars fired two employees after a couple found a swastika made of pepperoni on their pizza
https://currently.att.yahoo.com/att/cnn/little-caesars-fired-two-employees-203425305.html

My first thought is this was a couple of fools who thought it was funny.  The pizza was in the "hot and ready" bin so I can't see how it would be intended for anyone in particular.  Regardless of the reason, it was stupid especially with what is going on now.

One of the commenters thought the ends were pointed the wrong direction.  I don't keep up with that.

Random shitheads at a budget pizza place doing random shithead stuff isn't noose..  er,  news.

Also,  entirely coincedental,  but I had my first Little Caesars pizza today not 10 min from Brook Park.  It was incredibly mediocre,  which I expected from a $5 pie,  but the funny part was the manager pulling it out of the rack and popping the box open before handing it over.  A memo must've went around  >:D

No, everything is systemic, and your refusal to see it as such, is proof that it's systemic.

Only pepperoni?

I though black olives mattered.

^ You're right about the black olives.  Good one.  :rofl:

Here's a real swastika.

They can have it back.

That's a Bangalore Torpedo stretched across the marble symbol.

Stupid if they expect to keep their jobs.

The white supremacy hysteria has become such a caricature of itself that it really deserves to be mocked. I'm tempted to draw a swastika on a mask, just in case I have to go someplace that requires it. (a mask, that is; not the swastika)

^ Akin to petting a mad dog, fistful.  Fanciful, but not wise to actually do.  But I'm sure you know that.

"The white supremacy hysteria has become such a caricature of itself that it really deserves to be mocked."

True dat, though.

I would have been pissed over the coverage of pepperoni on the pizza, kind of hard to get enough pepperoni in every bite unless you do some creative slicing. ;)

Or just move a few slices.  The coverage would then be uneven, but adequate.

If they were really fascist pizza cooks, they would have known pizza gets fasces, not swastikas. (swastikas? swastikae? swastikoi?)

If a customer orders a swastika theme pizza, and the pizzeria refuses, can the customer sue?

Given the typical level of competence, I am afraid that my pizza would get feces instead of fasces.

And no gutters WTF? Although the dumpster may indicate work is being done.

I'm going to go with maybe don't try and steal the ahole's flag?

The whole narrative of "this person is a reprehensible shithead,  ergo I can *expletive deleted*ck with him"  needs to die.  Along with it's adherents.

That banner is a solid signal that that's a house and occupants to avoid.

You could say it's a red flag...

Not uncommon to see a window shaker at that kind of angle. It can be tough to get one into the window opening and get it square. To a large degree, though, it doesn't really matter if it's tipping some. Just makes it a bit harder to seal around it.

As for mounted flush, not sure what you mean by that.

Are we talking about how the AC units are angled down toward the back? That's so condensation goes outside.

I think maybe MillCreek was joking.

Window shakers can be installed so that they are level with no issues. Many of them actually use condensation pan splash onto the coils to help the cooling exchange.

OK. I've installed a few lately, and the instructions recommended a slantedness. YMMV, but I think a backward cant is usually recommended. Depends on the model you're working with, of course.

Why not just build them to work correctly when level?? Slantedness  looks sloppy .

Been a long time since I've installed a window AC and actually looked at the instructions... I remember the one I put in my apartment in Washington, DC, actually had a platform that you had to assemble that it would rest on and that kept it level, but that was largely because it was for a casement window and it needed the platform for support.

The ones I put in my Mom's house... I just threw them in the windows, and if they were level, great. If they slanted a bit, great. I didn't much care, as long as they didn't drop out the window and go through the porch roof.

What you do NOT want, however, is them pitching towards the interior of the house. They do that and you'll start throwing condensate back into the house through the vents.

I would prefer them to anchovies.  Yuck.

The roof vent and AC unit probably match the occupant whose bubble is a bit off level.
