True facts I will never be able to purge from my accursed brain.
The married couple who owned the house in the 80’s sitcom “Mr Belvedere” canonically met in Altoona. The premise of the sitcom was that a lower/middle class family ended up with a refined british butler who solved all their issues for them and brought them closer as a family. It was exactly how it sounds.
Rick and Morty season 2, the invadingind parasites episode has a skit spoofing this.
Are those Kraft singles!?
yes
You know, as unappetizing as this looks, it probably tastes close to dipping a grilled cheese into tomato soup. I’m keeping my mind open, but good lord they need help with their plating.

It does not.
Jim Cornette is a pro-wrestling personality who’s known for his fast loud mouth on-air.
He’s also known as being hard to get along with by most people.
So in the 1980s, when he was first becoming nationally well known, he would have bickering arguements with his coworkers. He made a list of people he didn’t like.
Then in the 1990s, he worked with a guy named Vince Russo, who he still to this day HAAAAAATES. He’s quoted as saying “Spite is a hell of a motivator, and it’s the reason I’m going to live one day longer than Vince Russo. Just so I can piss on his grave.”
So after dealing with Vince Russo, the WWF hired someone he worked with years earlier, and found he wasn’t as mad at him as he once was.
He was quoted as saying “You used to be much higher on my shitlist, but you’ve moved down a few spots simply by not doing anything differently!”
I’ve always taken that last quote to be an interesting take on perspective. How things can be exactly the same, but your perspective may shift with experience.
With all that said, I see this picture, of something that is being called “Pizza”, and I realize that pineapple on pizza isn’t the abomination to the form of pizza that I once percieved it as.
Brilliant! We need to spread this message so us Pineapple Pizza lovers wont be so hated.
This is poetry
ಠ_ಠ wtf
my dude i was eating look what you did
You knew the risk that you took browsing the Internet while eating
This is why I only browse while pooping.
Good call. If you have to vomit, you’re already in the appropriate room.
I gotta blame someone for this and lord knows I’m not capable

holy fuck
What is this abomination
Wtf
Amazing gif. What’s the source?
/c/antiquememesroadshow
thank you for this comforting old meme
Seeing this brings me back to my youth
Epic
When you pinch that pimple
Ewwwwwwwwwwww
I like how every time I see this identical picture it’s cropped slightly smaller so people can claim it’s a unique image
There it is in full, address of the godforsaken restaurant and all.
I’m not from the US, so pardon my ignorance. But holy shit, this place looks depressing as fuck. I don’t know if it’s the concrete jungle or the lack of walkability, but it just looks sad
It’s the barren concrete taking up 3/4 of the view with a hint of lawn behind more concrete. Europe was built before modern vehicles and has narrower streets with more residential in between businesses and has some cobblestone and what not. USA was built around railways and highways so everyone has a car and walking was an afterthought.
Edit: additionally ever wonder why Europeans say how far a distance is in kilometers and Americans answer with “it’s about 25 minutes”? It’s partially that reason plus the physical distance is larger (some states are larger than countries) so miles mean less to us than knowing the time, post logistics.
the fucking burnt bits on the cheese 😭 bruh this shit is fucked
I’m not sure “radioactive orange no-name fake square slices of oil solidified” constitutes cheese 🤔
I mean yeah, I missed out that the “cheese” is plastic, but I thought the burnt bits pointed that out by getting you to pay attention to that.
This fucking place is a disaster, they didn’t deserve my boy Luigi 😢
All the reviews are talking about how good the pizza is. Wtf is happening here?
Either the bread is godly or that nuke someone mentioned is a mercy killing
i’m trying real hard not to judge, but how bad can the rest of the pizza in altoona for this to get 5 stars
Legit something a child would dream up. Let’s take challah bread or something else thick like it and throw some ketchup on and a slice of plastic cheese on top. It’s as much pizza as the candy spaghetti from Elf was pasta.
I had hoped at least it was part of a loaf of garlic bread. That, a decent sauce, and they make their own mozz with bright yellow dye in it before slicing it like a pack of american cheese. that I would try. fuck, I’m going to have to learn to make mozz now that I have this craving.
I was wondering why he was found at a McDonald’s of all places but shit, I think we know now
dear god i finally found worse pizza than st. louis style pizza.
Basically a focaccia topped with tomato sauce, salami, green bell peppers and American cheese.
that ain’t even actual amercian cheese (like burger joints use)… this is the individually-wrapped ‘singles’ garbage.
As a non-American, this individually-wrapped garbage is the only type of American cheese that exists over here
no wonder american cheese is shit on elsewhere.
i suppose you could go to mcdonalds or bk, order a cheeseburger with extra slices ‘on the side’ or something.
Thats not different, quality wise
Here’s one from a food manufacturer who also has cream cheese, fresh cheeses, snacks, sandwiches etc. in my short research, this one has the most “bad stuff” in it. Currently in Austria, so Google spit out that:
Processed cheese preparation in slices at least 35% fat in dry matter. Ingredients: cheese, water, skimmed milk powder, butter, milk protein, emulsifying salts (sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, polyphosphates), sweet whey powder, salt, acidifier: citric acid, coloring: paprika extract.
Here I have the cheapest budget version of American cheese:
Ingredients: 50% cheese, water, skimmed milk powder, milk protein, butter, emulsifying salts (sodium citrate, sodium phosphate, polyphosphates), sweet whey powder, non-iodized salt, spice extract, acidifier: citric acid.
Wait. Aren’t these the same thing?
real american cheese is mostly made from a mix of other real cheeses, processed with some other stuff into a new thing.
the individually wrapped slices are less actual cheese and may not even contain enough to legally be called “cheese”.
so basically there are really different grades of american cheese, it is not all exactly the same thing. see the labels chart in the middle of this article:
At least Kraft singles are just cheddar cheese with extra milk and some shit to keep it solid. It’s essentially a solidified bechamel sauce.
i didn’t know there was a difference! thank u to the cheese fans for educating a layman like myself
I imagine that being served with a big fuck you energy
Petition to nuke Altoona as that pizza is a war crime?
I wanted to nuke them for ratting on luigi
not even the same person
To be blunt, I don’t blame them.
There was a price on his head, and while I understand why he would do what he did (though his direct intentions haven’t really been made public), and I agree that there are good reasons for what he did; the fact is, he committed a crime.
While we’re all basically cheering on what he did, I’m sure that CEO that I don’t care enough about to remember his name, had family and friends and stuff who will miss him greatly.
Those people, under the law, are entitled to justice, the same as you or I are entitled to justice when healthcare CEOs deny coverage that directly leads to someone’s death. Though, I don’t know how much of the latter has ever transpired. Regardless, the fact that we’re entitled to our day in court to get justice, so are they.
Provided Luigi is guilty, of course. This fact has yet to be proven in a court of law.
With all that in mind, and the monetary reward for basically turning him in, for someone working a minimum wage job at McDonald’s, that’s an easy call. You’re technically “doing the right thing” by tipping off police to the whereabouts of a suspect in a murder, and you also get a payday for it. Win-win ? I guess?
Personally, I was hoping that, we the people (or at least the US people), would feel so strongly in support of what was done, that we would individually agree unanimously, that we don’t turn this person in, and we just carry on. Sure, authorities would keep looking for him because they’re paid to, but the general public simply isn’t helping them at all with it.
IMO, that would have sent a very public and very clear message to the people in charge that “we the people” do not care about you. We have the power to do these things and suffer no consequences. We have the power that you think you hold. Do the right thing, or you’re next.
Alas, not the case. Oh well.
The snitch probably will never see a dime from the reward, you need to provide info on very specific ways to be able to collect. What a dumb fuck. I hope we get to find out who the snitch was, I have my theories…
I think you’re right. The prospect of being rewarded may have been enough to push them to giving up Luigi.
After the authorities apprehend him, there’s every chance that they’ll delay, deny, defend against giving out any kind of reward to anyone for their help in finding him.
So it seems we found the snitch
https://tribune.com.pk/story/2515321/luigi-mangiones-alleged-snitch-nancy-parker-faces-backlash
The cops are already claiming they found him. Some rookie cop. So they already doing just that…
Yup. And I hope this is a lesson that is well learned to the front line workers of the USA. I’m sure many don’t give enough of a shit to even notice, but hopefully the message is spread far and wide that this is what happens when we rat eachother out.
Do not speak to police, ever. Exercise your right to silence always. Do not help them, do not correct them when they are wrong. Do not speak to them besides informing them that you are exercising your right to remain silent.
Police are not your friend, they are a gang of armed thugs out to enforce laws put in by a system that is designed to actively work against you for the good of the 1%.
I hope that message gets to all of those that would be a rat.
The last I heard about the rat that outed Luigi was that he got doxxed, harassed, fired, and to piss on all of that, denied any compensation or reward by the pigs for being a rat. That sucks for him, but snitches get stitches.
i wonder if he had life insurance
