I want to hurt whoever picked that typeface
When I was a kid I ordered a escort to our house for my stepfather.
My mom got home about ten minutes before she showed up and the fireworks started!
The next guy was a bit nicer.

LMAO, I take it he wasn’t very nice lol
What is that font? Makes me feel dyslexic.
I doubt the pizza delivery guys care enough to linger around.
They want their money, though. And I bet some of them were curious what this was all about.
I mean, is this story set in the 90s? Where can you order pizza from today that:
doesn’t have caller ID (oh hey, the same number is calling again for the 12th time tonight)
doesn’t require payment up front
Wouldn’t notice that every sequential house on the same street had ordered

A man did this in London in 1810, but with everything - chimney sweeps, piano deliveries, priests, lawyers, coal carts, doctors, undertakers, all sorts.
It brought the whole area to a standstill and the guy won a guinea in a bet and ran away to the countryside

I really hope the order of events is the actual order they happened in because the escalation is perfect
