  • if i was a pizza guy, i'd live for moments like that.
  • Yasin said when he told the man that he either needed money or the pizza, the man began to yell and pushed him and punched him in the face. Now that's one severe damn case of the munchies.
  • But it was only a medium - that's not going to satisfy this dude-like hunger...
  • Unusual to hear of stoned people becoming violent.
  • Pot is only for tips.
  • "Dude, take the pot! Duuuude, take the pot! Duuuuuuuuuude! Take! The! Pot!" And yet, I doubt the guy with the pot was actually high. If he was, he would have just kept looking for the cash until the pizza dude left unnoticed. (Yeah, I'm a former slice whore. But I have had a woman come to the door naked... And also a dude...)
  • woman please.
  • I would like to smoke some pot right now.
  • I would like to eat pizza right now (maybe a little pot first then, go on, you've persuaded me...) I'm not phoning for it though... Chicken, bacon and extra mozzy cheese for me.
  • Imagine the odds of getting the only non-pothead pizza delivery driver in the world. That guy should have forgotten about the pizza and tried to trade some buds for a lottery ticket instead.
  • Something similar happened to me when I worked at a liquor store in college. A semi-regular customer came in, obviously in an altered state of mind, and offered to trade a tiny bag of white powder for a bottle of wine. I told him we didn't have a cocaine slot in the cash drawer, he accepted this pretty gracefully for someone who's eyes were about to roll out of his head, left, then came back later with a more legal form of tender. We also had a guy come in with a cigar box full of pennies. We sent him outside with a bunch of penny wrappers to sit on the curb and roll them up until he had enough for his pint.
