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.

    The weird thing is, everyone - me included in this thread - has said Domino’s charges too much.

    That is just a lie. Not only had many people not said that and just berated me for not using a coupon, I have asked multiple times now why Domino’s can’t just charge less and not make people use coupons, and no one answers that question they just say use a coupon. but I guess I can’t be as smart as everybody here. Obviously it’s my fault for being stupid. Companies that take advantage of stupid people are right to do so because stupid people are bad people at least that’s what I’m hearing here.

    Also- help this stupid idiot out and explain to me exactly what I should have fed my daughter for dinner since I can’t cook or smell most food. (I don’t expect you to answer this, I just expect a bunch of downvotes and insults).

      where did I at any point offer any culinary advice or criticism?

      Are you drunk on pain meds, or confusing me with another poster?

      as for being stupid: yeah, probably your fault. I mean, if you are being wilfully ignorant, that’s pretty stupid.

      ≥company’s that take advantage…

      how do you suggest they take advantage of lazy people without taking advantage of stupid people?

      why do you suggest they don’t also take advantage of “smart” people (which is, as I clearly said, what they are also doing)?

      A continuing factor here, from the start, is you not reading the comments, and instead arguing disingenuously. This seems oddly out of character for you. Just kind of picturing you like Brendan Fraser in The Whale, only with anger and rage of Cartman.

        Still no answer. From you or anyone else.
