"Pizzas are cylinders" was not the forbidden knowledge I was expecting today

from a topological perspective, pizzas are also pyramids and cubes. from an enlightened topological perspective, pizzas are lines and points.

Did you forget about deep dish pizza?

Also, thin crust pizza is basically man trying to make pizza a circle instead of a cylinder, in defiance to nature.

"it's a cylinder"

With area = A and radius = z:

Pi * z * z = A

I don't think so, a cold birra often goes well with pizza

Pretty sure my Calc2 prof pulled this trick on us sometime in the solids of revolution unit. Started deriving something on the board, just another cylinder ok, but wtf are you calling the radius ‘z’?

I moved to Alberta like eight years ago and I'm still appalled at what passes for good pizza in this province. Someone told me it's Greek influence, which explains why so many donair places are hailed for having the "best pizza in town". To the average Albertan, it's not good pizza unless the crust is five inches thick and incredibly dried-up.

I've finally found the 1 legit pizza place in the UK after 8 years, hidden in a tiny town.
