This whole fiasco is really just a slice of life.

Not necessarily, 2 pizzas is 16 pieces for 30 people vs 8 for 30. So, it gives half of the attendees an option to have a slice.

Nix on the pizza ...

he could have brought a dessert or 2 ...

A cheese cake would have been nice or a cream pie ...

Which is worse: Contributing to people overeating, or your friends thinking you are a cheapskate?

How many slices would you get out of your cheesecake? Much more than 8?

I like to feed people, but that’s just me …
Overall, one pizza is fine because showing up empty handed should be avoided. And so, he gets a pass.

But, again - in response - 2 pizzas for 30 people won’t contribute to over eating.

There are only so many helpings of nasty creamed green bean casserole and quinoa salad one can eat in a lifetime. I’ll take a pizza slice any day.

I always bring a haggis.

And leave with a haggis...

I always tried to take something children would like since most family pot-lucks are short on that option. The ground beef and potato casserole or macaroni and cheese always seemed to go over well. There is usually plenty of potato salad and green been casseroles for everyone to enjoy two helpings.

If taking a pizza, I probably would have taken two, but it was a pot-luck. Take what you can. People will be lucky if they get a slice.

Was it an 8, 10, 12, or 16-inch pizza?

Just watched the video. I wish I hadn't. What a self-centered psychopath.

A potluck is where you eat other people’s leftovers.

I’m glad this Karen doesn’t go to MY church. Folks bring just a little more food than they would eat themselves. One average fellow doesn’t eat a whole pizza.

This is why I don’t attend potlucks, I like what I like and I don’t like most of what other people make. And I certainly ain’t sharing my pizza!
