I think Pizza is my favorite food ever. Sandwiches are overrated. Can you go wrong w/ a fresh pie? My favorite toppings would be strictly green peppers. What about you guys? - Kirby

swingline (May 19, 2005)

what the hell? that's like asking for a fat bitch at a brothel.

Someone (May 19, 2005)

fresh pie?

Someone (May 19, 2005)

i prefer a good hamburger to pizza anyday.

dazed (May 20, 2005)

I'm often split but I generally lean 60% towards the hamburger side. Pizaa toppings, definitely gotta go with the pepperoni and mushrooms.

jamespastepunk (May 19, 2005)

Chicago style deep dish w/ green peppers...one of the best pizzas I've ever had.

Someone (May 19, 2005)

black olives

Longshot (May 19, 2005)

Someone (May 19, 2005)

maverick (scott) (May 19, 2005)

Update: I just finished consuming the sub, and it was incredibly delicious. It's completely made my day. Thank you, Name Taken. -Scott

I have never really gotten into the "emo pop" bands. There are a few shining stars that have gotten my attention and repect. This is deffinately one of them. I find it really sad to see them go. So bash on them all you want, but they were an amazing band whether you like it or not.

Someone (May 19, 2005)

I really like these guys album. This really sucks though especially as I never got the chance to see them. Fuck.

Someone (May 19, 2005)

Burritos are by far the best food ever. It's like an entire meal wrapped up in an edible plate.

EMOHOLOCAUST (May 19, 2005)

Someone (May 19, 2005)

HA!

thirtyseconds (May 19, 2005)

Yay!

Icapped2pac (May 19, 2005)

Fuck all of you. I liked their last album from beginning to end. Of course, they did seem like the kind of band that was one album away from making a Static Lullaby-like fall on their collective faces. Oh well.

EMOHOLOCAUST (May 19, 2005)

so i guess this morons deserve to break up after all. yeah emo-pop-pnink is dead and the corporations call indie the next big thing shit what the fuck theyre generic in every way they sound anyways

EMOHOLOCAUST (May 19, 2005)

Oh well this news didnt break last week's anti-flag's record on comments it has like 800+ commnets im like is this really important?

Someone (July 13, 2005)
