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.

    This is the only part of what you’ve posted in this entire thread that I agree with.

    Wise up, man… You cost yourself a ton of extra money and came here to whine for sympathy and, deservingly, received none.

      Really? You agree with Domino’s charging twice what they did five years ago? You agree that you should be forced to use a coupon (again, something I did not know existed) when Domino’s can obviously afford to charge less?

      That’s some real “hail corporate.”

          Was I supposed to call them and demand a cheaper pizza? Once again, if they can charge what they want to charge with a coupon, why can’t they just charge that all the time?

            You’re supposed to not be a fucking idiot as you’ve been told repeatedly in this thread.

              No, get it right. I’m not an idiot, I’m a liar. And a child abuser. And I’m lying about being sick for sympathy. Get with the program.

              Edit: and a 46-year-old boomer, I forgot about that one.

                No.

                You’re a fucking idiot and a liar but I never said anything about child abuse.

                Hell, are you trying to admit to being that as well though?

                  Do tell me what I’m lying about. I do hope I get to post all the links about the huge con of me being sick and my amazing Mayo Clinic Photoshop that I worked so hard on again.

                  Also, I never said you called me a child abuser. I told you to keep up with everyone else who is telling me definitely true facts about my life.
