Eyes the size of a large pizza

Which sounds less impressive as it used to, with shrinkflation taking its toll also on Italian food craftsmanship.

“Longer” would also be more appropriate than “bigger”. To me, the latter implies it is more massive in size than a school bus.

Maybe it is!

Well now I want pizza, thanks.

A pizza the size of a squid eye?

[-] P00ptart@lemmy.world 5 points 4 months ago

If it's good, yeah.

Everything but the metric system

Squids have headlights?

Is that large pizza like the 1,2m pizza I had in Poland 15 years ago, or a regular sized large pizza at 40-50cm?

Anything But Metric

Americans will use anything but metric

The Rules:

  1. Posts must be a screenshot, crosspost, or link to someone using a bizarre unit of measurement (33 lanes wide, as heavy as 10 semi-trucks, etc.)

  2. Standard units are not allowed, unless it's a sufficiently bizarre usage of the unit (this is up to mod discretion.)

  3. Intentionally terrible units are completely fine! Satire is welcome here

  4. Curses are fine, slurs are not. If there are slurs in something you want to post, please blur them, or reconsider posting.

  5. Flag NSFW content as such. NSFW words in these posts don't need to be censored.

  6. Post titles should be just the unit of measurement used (not the thing being measured!), and should be the full name of the unit (Apples and Bags of Apples imply very different things!) NSFW units should be partially censored. If there are multiple units, list as many as you want. If the source is satire, the title should start with [Satire]

  7. In the comments be civil, both to each other AND the subject of posts.
