Booh yah!

Just snagged a copy of Claire Wendling's Drawers 2.0 on eBay for $31. I already have a copy I paid $65 for, but can't hurt to have another. It's a beautiful, beautiful book for a very good price. Maybe I'll give it as a gift or something.

Nuri, if you ever go to the San Francisco area, go to Cafe Gratitude. They have some pretty damn-fine vegan pizzas, and the most delicious milk(?)shakes in the world.

Also, in regards to pizza, you are all wrong. I know, as an OBJECTIVE FACT, that my grandmother's pizza is the best in the world. She's from Bisigniano, Italia. Someone (Pete?) mentioned pizza in Rome, and yes, it isn't the best. I think the scale should be:

1. Calabria and surrounding areas, Southern Italy (screw Napoli though, they suck)
2. NYC, USA
3. Napoli, Italy
4. Chicago
5. Rome

Though my general feelings on Chicago are very negative. United Airlines has cultivated an undue hatred within me of that entire area.

I went to Cafe Gratitude last time I was in SF. The chocolate mint shake was awesome. But the place was kinda creepy. The dishes have names like "You are enlightened", and when you order it, the server says "You are enlightened" back at you in that sorta yoga-instructor voice that's supposed to be soothing, but is just kinda irritating and creepy.

I'm not vegan. I'm gluten-intolerant. Something tells me a pizza that is both vegan and gluten-free would be pretty fracking terrible. Thanks though.

Also, your first mistake was flying United.

Welcome to Berkeley.

I'm not vegan. I'm gluten-intolerant.

I believe it doesn't have any glutens in it. It's more salad than pizza, but it's still tasty. Again, the focus here is on the MILK(?)SHAKES.

And yes. I only fly Jet Blue (Jetblue?) from now on.

To continue the pizza argument, I need only three words to counter Rym's "New York Pizza == Best Pizza" point.

"Boston's. North. End."

Boston is the best city in the world and the North End is the best area in Boston. That is all.

I'd rather live in Southie than have another bite of NYC pizza.

YoshoKatana

HungryJoe, though we know your cold gaze and rock-hard abs would make you the king of the southie projects, please remember to consider us weak, fleshy computer geeks that lead sedentary lifestyles.

HungryJoe

Mr. Katana, all a fleshy computer geek would have to do is eat some Chicago style pizza, listen to Obama's Nov. 4, 2008 acceptance speech (from Grant Park, Chicago), and he'd have the strength to get up and do what needs to be done.

YoshoKatana

True. Point taken.

Coincidentally, I just had some fairly acceptable NYC-style pizza a minute ago.

WindUpBird

In Chicago, all of our computer geeks are lean, mean crotch machines from the massive quantities of Goose Island ale and God Tier pizzas they consume.

HungryJoe

You have to be tough just to respirate in Chicago.

WindUpBird

You have to be tough just to respirate in Chicago.

Other cities refer to their underprivileged populations as "homeless." In Chicago, we call them "Death Squads."

Oh hello.

I see your "enormous spider" and raise a "Cabrini Green." Just saying.

Mankoon

Can you get good grandma slices from Chicago? I'm a big fan of the granny.
Anyway, BOOHYA! Wii fit is working for me! Small booyah. I'm starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel for this game project I've been working on. It's a very small light but I can see it!

"Cabrini Green."

I'll see your Cabrini Green and Raise you the Melbourne Painters and Dockers Union.

I'll see your Mob and your Union and raise you Drunken Celtics fans (Boston), LA Riots (Los Angeles), Local Yakuza, Local Hispanic Gangs, Local Korean Gangs, and Local Armenian Gangs (all Los Angeles).

You can get out of Chicago, You might make it out of New York, But No one...NO ONE ESCAPES FROM L.A.!

I see your Rochester winter, and Raise you the australian Desert, and all the creatures within it.

Omnutia

I raise you England and chavs.

I'll see the Australian desert, and raise you the Geneseo river, and all the muck, filth, and brown-ness that goes with it. Same goes for Lake Ontario.

I raise you England and chavs.

I raise you Kath&Kim;, and Bogans.

I'll see the Australian desert, and raise you the Geneseo river, and all the muck, filth, and brown-ness that goes with it. Same goes for Lake Ontario.

I'll raise you the Thames and whatever the hell they call that disgusting river that runs through Leeds.

Victor Frost

I'll see your leeds and raise you the Charles river, which is still unsafe to swim in due to the chemicals poured in by Polaroid decades ago.

Wait, have you lived in both Australia and England? I've only ever lived in one place, this competition is unfair. How am I supposed to compete with someone worldly?
But seriously, if that's the case, I can't compete. Besides the ****ing winters and the dirty lake/river, Rochester doesn't have lots of terribleness.
Also, why is the "Booh yah!" thread being polluted with things that are negative? This is a happy thread!

I SEE YOUR ANYTHING AND RAISE YOU DUTCH MANURE! It's the most potent poison and cure in the world.
