Note I did not buy any food for myself.

To head off questions:

  1. No, I couldn’t cook for her. I’m suffering from a long-term illness where I can’t eat solid foods and am extremely smell sensitive. My wife is at a funeral, so I had to order food.

  2. She’s extremely picky and refused to let me order anything but pizza.

  3. We live outside of town, in a not very big town, with very few pizza delivery options, and they’re all at least this expensive.

  4. No, I didn’t also have to buy her the cheesy bread or the second topping or the sauces, but it’s nice to get my daughter a treat and that is no excuse for the order being that expensive.

  5. We’re in Indiana, so this should be ludicrous in terms of pricing. This used to be the pricing I would expect when we lived in L.A. and ordered from a good local place rather than a chain.

Edit: Turns out what I should have been infuriated about is people repeatedly telling me to get takeout and having to repeatedly explain why that wasn’t an option, having people not believe I’m sick, and being repeatedly berated for not magically knowing food coupons exist on the internet when I never order food on the internet. Oh right, and also being a bad parent for not forcing food my daughter doesn’t like down her throat or starving her if she won’t eat it.

By the way, I have another thing to be infuriated about. A huge storm came in and this happened to our trees. I assume I will start being berated for not cutting them down before that happened, but because I have no power or internet at home and have to go to the library to post, your further posts telling me what an idiot I am and how I’m an awful parent and how I’m not really sick will take me a while to read. Sorry to ruin your day. Maybe you’ll find someone else to treat like shit.

Anyway, have fun telling me I’m the worst person on Lemmy, just don’t expect a quick reply.

Oh, and do tell me how stupid I am for not knowing that people who clear up and fix such damage have coupons on their website.

    Cool. Enjoy your hail corporate lifestyle. Hope that works out for you. I’m sure you’ll never get overcharged by any corporation when it turns out you didn’t have to be. And if that does happen, I’m sure you’ll berate yourself for lacking the intelligence to not be cheated. Because you feel the same way about yourself than you do about a stranger on the internet you know you can get away with berating since you’re not in the same room.

      And you enjoy getting offended and defensive when someone tells you to read for your own good or take responsibility for your own actions.

        I don’t enjoy it, I just don’t see why I should accept that Domino’s is doing something that it’s okay to do.

        I understand that you think it’s acceptable for Domino’s to have a two-tier pricing system depending on how smart you are. I don’t. I can’t help not being smart no matter how much you think I can.

          I don’t enjoy it,

          I doubt that, you seem to get off on being berated and called stupid.

            So if I say you’re pro-corporate, that’s beyond the pale, but you’re allowed to say I enjoy being berated?

            Also, as I have said many times, I am stupid. Calling me stupid is factual. You just think it’s okay to take advantage of stupid people.
