Sex is like pizza...or is it...
I didn't particularly like the 'treatment' but this article:
http://www.cracked.com/article_17521_like-pizza-even-when-its-bad-its-still-pretty-good.html
...brought up the old cliche:
"Sex is like pizza--even when it is bad, it is still pretty good."
Which raises the question--is that the only way sex is like pizza?
Perhaps not.
1. Some people like it late at night, some people like it early in the morning.
2. Some people get burned because they just can't wait, other people wait too long until it's gone cold.
3. There are many different definitions as to what it 'really is'--as in former President Clinton's definition of what is 'really' sex and the controversy as to whether deep dish Chicago pizza is 'really' pizza or a casserole.
4. Everyone thinks they know 'the best,' but are always on the look-out for something new...
5. People are willing to wait insanely long for it, even when they want it right now.
6. You look back on your experiences with it in college, and say 'what was I thinking?'

ha ha ha..... certainly makes you question yourself!
speaking for myself - bad pizza is as bad as bad sex. i'd rather have cereal and a banana!

better while standing up

I don't like having pizza at the airport.
Ortolan at 5:53PM on 06/22/09
Never eat pizza standing up. The Lord might think you are dancing.
Grumpy Old Man at 5:56PM on 06/22/09
@grumpy - very funny.....
pooch at 5:58PM on 06/22/09
It is a good idea to practice safe pizza eating.
izatryt at 6:04PM on 06/22/09
Practice safe eating. Always use condiments.

Thanks, pooch. By the way, pizza at high altitude is really good when you can get it.
Grumpy Old Man at 6:11PM on 06/22/09
@Heart you are hysterical girl!!! personally I'll take sex over pizza any day!

Never get pizza where you get gas.
Also, crust or no crust? ;)

I have had some buffalo chicken pizza that has made me spontaneously scream, "O,God! O, God!"
janaatwg at 6:55PM on 06/22/09
I like it on the kitchen table!

Sex...Pizza...where's the beer!
dmcavanagh at 7:15PM on 06/22/09
@huney--thanks! And I agree with you!
and @thegoch, @ortolan & @ag3208--those made me laugh out loud--too true!
I've also heard that it is better in Italy, but haven't had a chance to try that theory out...
HeartofGlass at 7:17PM on 06/22/09
come to think of it, both are better outside.

Some people prefer extravagant toppings, and some just like it plain.
And sometimes, it's really cheesy.
@Heart - brilliant thread!

Pizza and/or Sex should be...
* Hot
* Moist
* Satisfying
Neither bad sex nor bad pizza fit those descriptors.

Does pizza improve with age?
czken at 10:47AM on 06/23/09
Pizza is like sex...sometimes it's better when I do it myself...
Amandarama at 10:55AM on 06/23/09
i have nothing to add-i'm laughing too damn hard to come up with anything else-this is hands down the funniest thread we've ever had here. you guys are cracking me up...my co-workers think i'm nuts with these tears streaming down my face.

Sex is like pizza... if it takes more than 30 minutes to deliver, you're on your own.
rdrnr44 at 11:44AM on 06/23/09
If this thread doesn't make the weekly "highlight reel," nothing ever will. :D

Getting pizza exactly right is difficult and a thing to be treasured once you finally do get it right. On the other hand, just trying to get it right is a lot of fun.
Grumpy Old Man at 2:18PM on 06/23/09
I'm not as turned on by a pizza as I am with a taco.
Poultrygeist at 5:49PM on 06/23/09
Some people like to have pizza 7 days a week.
buffy at 8:48PM on 06/23/09
I disagree. When we put the kids to bed and my wife (who is, by the way, the most beautiful, fun, funny and clever person in history) and I share a pizza and laugh at stupid things on TV...well, that's at least as good as sex. I wouldn't give up that cuddling for all the pizza in Italy, or all the sex at a university.

brilliant! these are fantastic.
emilytaylor at 10:59AM on 06/24/09
Any time, any place, standing, sitting, in a car, in bed, in the bathtub, riding a horse, on a roof, cold or very hot but always spicy, I perfer thin crispy crust but i am not too picky. I also like mine BIG!! But a really really good one will make my toes curl lol.
pjracz10 at 11:55PM on 06/24/09
riding a horse? really? that sounds absolutely uncomfortable.
