We went on a cruise this summer. There was a pizza place that served by the slice, I assumed it was one of the food options that cost extra so avoided it all week. Day 6 of a 7 day cruise, I found out it was free all along.

It's been three months and every day I think about how much pizza I missed out on.

Many years from now you'll be on your deathbed, surrounded by loved ones. Before slipping away peacefully, you will share with them your only regret in life... not eating more pizza.

Wait wait wait. There are actually ppl who don't order whole Pizzas, but a specific number of slices?

[–] TwinTusks@outpost.zeuslink.net 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Yes, when I was single, I only order a slice or two for myself.

So after ordering 12 slices you then choose a whole pizza for dessert right?

I didn't know it was possible.

Pizza shops in big cities (particularly NYC) sell by the slice. Growing up my mall food court (canteen) had a stall that sold by the slice.

Because it's sad that the other bird did not get as much pizza as it could have

It's like brotherly support

Probably because it has a lot more to regret, maybe? I mean, it is a goal in life to live your life so that you never have to regret more than not having that second slice of pizza. sighs Too late for me.

Or maybe the pink bird has a lot to regret, but is too stupid to ever understand, and the brown bird feels sorry for them.

Wow, what philosophy is hidden in a seemingly simple meme. There really is something to think about here. Unfortunately, as a non-english speaker, it is difficult for me to understand the meaning of some memes. Thanks for the clarification.

if you where somewhere that sells pizza by the slice you should have gotten a Doner Kebab instead
