Firebomb it. Stop being walked on, OP.

It'll die off on its own through the course of nature ... no need for intervention.

>>4675570
Well then why didn't you buy it? Oh because you're a poor lonely bastard? Than you have no right to speak.

>>4675605
Because no low quality pizza restaurant has ever been successful? quick someone call dominos and tell them they're headed for bankruptcy.

>>4675625
It took me <1 second to think of rebuttal to your argument. You should try it.

>>4675625
Exactly. It's all about catering to the lowest common denominator because people are cheap and stupid.

Not frugal, because a frugal person might take their physical or mental health in mind.

>my favorite pizzeria in the state I once drove 3 hours to go to switched to frozen crusts
Fuck this gay earth. I would have paid 10 more dollars for a good pizza you unbelievable pricks, now Pizza Luche is all I have.

>>4675634
just make your own pizza. Its easy.

>>4675636
I have. The dough isn't the same. I don't know what they did to it.

Has it ever occurred to you that even simple shit can be done so perfectly that it's hard to recreate? A place that works hard to make it's own crust and sauce, and has figured out how the sugar, acidity, and fat balance...

>>4675646
So, just make better dough. It can only take a couple times of trial and error as long as you're not an idiot.

Just fuck off already. I'm not arguing pizza is hard to make, I'm arguing that it's hard to meet what you thought was perfect.

If you're ever in Winter Haven for some reason (not too far off from Orlando, but a bit out of the way) theres a place there called Pasquale's Pizzeria thats pretty good.

Its run by this couple thats Italian enough that you feel like somebody might get shot.

>>4675667
Some random jackass with a storefront did it. It can be done again, stop deifying some restaurant and better yourself.

I've got a different story.
There was this little place, "Piccolo", barely two tables under big umbrellas in a small garden, and a kitchen, primarily deliveries. They made delicious pizza with a plenty of ingredients, and interestingly their menu was built in such a way that if you took "Margharita, 4 extra ingredients" you'd come up cheaper than if you picked a pizza composed of these 4 ingredients in most cases. Anyway, I had my favorite setup which was not on the menu normally, and I really loved their pizza.

Then one day changes came.
I learned they moved to a different place. The pizza arrived with half the usual amount of ingredients (I mean, there was everything I demanded but pitiful amounts) and not nearly as good: a new cook. Next time I ordered I heard I can't order extra ingredients to Margharita, I must pick more expensive pizzas (which underwent a price hike and best ones fell out of the offer), and if I wanted my own, they have "Fantasia" which is six arbitrary components, costs arm and leg, and besides my favorite setup was three extras. Oh, but wait. Cheese, Oregano and Tomato sauce count as three of these six and they are not optional. Fuck this shit, my favorite pizzeria "Piccolo" is dead.

And then about a year later I ride my bike by the path by which the old pizzeria used to be before the move, and what do my eyes see? "Pizza Piazza Toscana". Let's give it a try... I pick up the menu, and uh... it's disturbingly similar to old Piccolo menu. Same rapid jump between Margharita or Funghi and all the rest, mostly same offers, mostly same prices...
I ask the guy at the desk if I can get extra ingredients for my Margharita, yes, sure, why not. So, I order, hoping for the best. And then, from the kitchen emerges the nice plump lady who used to be the cook at Piccolo before (as I heard later) getting fired overnight. And the pizza is just as excellent and the prices are great and everything is back. Except for the name. Back from dead!

>expecting to better yourself to the point of being better than the best
You are quite the skilled trollish fuck.
>if you really apply yourself, you can be the next the next Amancio Ortega
No. And this debate is over. Go back to telling people they can cook like Daniel Boulud in their gas-free flats.

>>4675694 cont.
Apparently a pizzeria from the other end of the town heard the news, heard complaints of the customers, and decided to expand. They rented the same place as the old one left, they hired the same cook, they recovered as much of the menu as they could without getting plagiarism complaints, and essentially, they resurrected the old pizzeria. I'm a regular there nowadays. And current Piccolo? Still exists, somehow. Fuck them.

>>4675696
>durr being able to make one thing well makes you a great cook.

Fuck off. Its a fucking pizza dough its not nuclear fusion.

>>4675703
There's more than one fourteen year old that have created fusion reactors. All you need is materials and the formula.

To create not just food, but great food, you need physical skills, creativity, and equipment that you likely do not have at home.

So go masturbate to your shitty homemade pizza and the rocks you throw in your outdated consumer oven.

>>4675730
Yes well I prefer masturbating at home to sucking some hole-in-the-wall chef's dick.
