New way to annoy Zoomers discovered... And why do they conceptualize "passive aggressive" as being worse than "insane"? ... What?
Those who have no experience of reason or virtue, but are always occupied with feasts and the like, are brought down and then back up to the middle, as it seems, and wander in this way throughout their lives, never reaching beyond this to what is truly higher up, never looking up at it or being brought up to it, and so they aren’t filled with that which really is and never taste any stable or pure pleasure. Instead, they always look down at the ground like cattle, and, with their heads bent over the dinner table, they feed, fatten, and fornicate. To outdo others in these things, they kick and butt them with iron horns and hooves, killing each other, because their desires are insatiable.

A government mistreating a people doesn't usually lead to revolutions. If anything, a government that is overly kind is the sort that gets rebelled against. Keep this in mind when thinking about the current situation in Appalachia.

Santa Madonna! What abomination is this? Let me compose myself and analyze this... this culinary crime scene before I lose all reason.
What we have here appears to be a mockery of Neapolitan-style pizza. The crust, I grudgingly admit, shows some promise with its charred spots and puffy cornicione. But any semblance of authenticity ends there.
The toppings... Dio mio, the toppings! Are those... French fries strewn across the surface like some sort of carbohydrate confetti? And those pinkish circular abominations - hot dog slices? On a pizza? This is a desecration of the highest order!
Mamma mia, I can barely bring myself to continue. This... creation... is an affront to everything sacred in the world of pizza. It's a culinary Frankenstein's monster, cobbled together from the discarded scraps of fast food nightmares.
What pizzeria would dare serve such a monstrosity? This is a cry for help; it's as if the pizzaiolo has abandoned all hope and love of nomos and embraced chaos like an Anglo.
This 'pizza' is a perfect encapsulation of everything wrong with modern food culture - a misguided attempt to combine disparate elements without regard for tradition, balance, or basic culinary common sense.
I weep for the future of pizza if this is what passes for acceptable in some establishments. This image will haunt my dreams for weeks to come.

Would you be uneasy walking alone at night (and let's say also completely unarmed) within a mile of your home?
