  • Fresh basil absolutely counts. I love margherita, but the thing with margherita is that you need an amazing crust for it to be a good pizza. That’s not really a surprise at all, but even a terrible crust can be redeemed with a mountain of good toppings.

    And my statement is not about gatekeeping a pizza, in fact quite the opposite. Pizza is such a low bar that, yes, even Chuck E. Cheese’s pizza is better than no pizza. Great pizzas will have great crust and a wise combination of toppings, but a good pizza can be a mediocre crust with a kitchen sink on top. That’s basically what I order at MOD pizza everytime I go; just put everything on there, chief.












  • I talked about this a lot with my partner since we had been living together for a couple of years before we decided to get married.

    Marriage, to us, is really just an external expression of the love that we share and the commitment we have already made to each other. The marriage itself is not the commitment, just a statement of it. There are lots of members in our families who disagree and say that marriage itself is the commitment, but then again they’re the same ones who have been divorced or who have extremely unhealthy relationships with their spouses.

    Leaning on a piece of paper with your signature on it as the reason you’re staying with someone is idiotic; paper tears extremely easily. I choose to love my partner, not because a paper tells me that I chose that long ago, but because I wake up every day and make that decision.

    Why get married? I dunno, if it doesn’t mean the same thing to you, then don’t, and I say that with no judgement at all. If you care more about the person than you do about the idea if marriage (like I do) and you gain nothing from a marriage, then don’t worry about it and just focus on the person, yourself, and the relationship you both share.
