You do know the message boards are also non vocal right?

Non-vocal, sure, but come on. It's not like we can order a pizza through ENWorld. Yet.

You may just have either a dearth of independent pizza places, a lack of ones that deliver, or some pretty lousy options.

We also have Dominoes, Papa John's, and a small Italian place that delivers. It's all depends on what I'm in the mood for. I get something different from each place.

But, I can book mark the pizza site, have my cookies set up so I automaticall log in, have a particular favorite order already picked out, and a few clicks I'm back on EN World.

I'd imagine Miami has more reataurants that focus on sea food. But, heck, I'm no snob. I would not order Pizza Hut no matter where I went. I'd skip having pizza and have something else. It's just too spongey in the crust, the tomoato paste is sweet (I wonder if they add sugar to make it more addictive), and the cheese like the glue RPG magazines use to hold insert maps in place. And what's with those little crumbles of greasy grizzle they claim are sausage? The real test for pizza is if you can eat it cold the next day. With the "Hut" pizza the next day, if some of the cardboard box it came in tore up and stuck to the underside of the pizza, you'd likely only notice because of the flavor spike. ;)

Actually...seafood is hard to find here, unless your on the beach...and paying $$$. Ft Lauderdale might be better off, but that 45-60 minutes north. Miami has latin food. Oh yes, and lots of it. If you find something good, it's usually out of the way, or way overpriced. Everything in Miami is overpriced. But our pizza huts are good. :p And I say that having gone to good independant pizza places in Miami and Orlando. Haven't tried pizza too many other places, as pizza is not high priority for me. :)
 

About 16 months ago, I had a dream of the “near future”. In that world, you could order fast food for delivery with your remote control, and the cost would just be added to your monthly cable bill. So, if you were watching TV, you could hit your MENU button, select FOOD DELIVERY > PIZZA and a pizza would be dispatched to your door.

The pricing would actually be pretty good, due to the exclusive contract that the cable company had with the delivery company – and it could also be adapted for local specialties.

(This dream also featured a “virtual world” where people could assume different personas and interact via their wireless keyboards through their televisions – essentially, their PCs, TVs, and other media equipment had been replaced by a total “Entertainment System”, and most computer use was now done from the couch via wireless keyboard and giant plasma screen. Now, this is all very similar to stuff that already exists today, except these virtual worlds weren’t fantasy MMORPGs – they were virtual worlds similar to our own. No adventures or quests or anything – just a futuristic version of online chat or messageboards like this one – except you had an avatar and could go have conversations with other virtual people. People developed entire relationships online that didn’t exist in the real world.)

None of this stuff was a creation of my imagination, so much as a projection of where things are headed. Certainly, a year ago all of this stuff existed, but it was just more developed and advanced.

So it’s odd to see this whole pizza thing!

(No real point, just sharing!)

How is this lazy? You've been able to order pizza on line for ages. And its not like Table Top RPGers haven't ordered pizza for thier games.

I can't order Pizza Hut online in my area. But I think it's lazy because you're fostering a culture that can't be bothered to take 5 minutes to stop playing, pick up a phone, dial a number and order a pizza. Just seems like a really lazy thing to me.

If this happened, my cable payment would be larger than my car payment. :lol:
