I loved the name Piggly-Wiggly. Hearing genteel elderly ladies say "Oh, I must stop off at the Piggly-Wiggly for butter." It could only have been better if it had been "The Eight-Ball".
I could squeeze you until you popped like warm champagne, and you'd beg me to hurt you just a little bit more.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Timelies,
I have to go back and finish the old thread yet.
I'm in the "if the crust isn't worth eating, the pizza isn't worth eating" camp. If the only choice is Papa John's, the dogs get the part with the inedible overly-sweet sauce on it, and I keep the crusts and garlic sauce for myself.
This is me, except for the dogs part. I'll eat Papa John's, but their sauce is much too sweet for me. The crusts and garlic sauce are great, though.
My favorite "weird" pizza is sausage and pineapple. I was skeptical at first, but was pleasantly surprised. It was the standard order for my old gaming group. The local Dominos came to expect our order every Friday night. With the current group no one can agree on anything so we normally just order individual meals from a local italian place that delivers instead.
I prefer to order from a local pizza place called imaginitively enough Pizza House (who in addition to good pizza have absolutely incredible italian beef on garlic bread sandwiches), but when there's a large group we tend to order from Dominos because it's cheaper and easier.

Piggly-Wiggly is definitely an inner-city chain in Milwaukee. Don't know about anywhere else.

Apart from sports, "my secret favorite thing on earth is ketchup. I will put ketchup on anything. But it has to be Heinz." - my husband, Michael Vartan
I shopped at Winn-Dixie and Publix when I was stationed in Florida for a couple months.
I love Publix. They are the bestest grocery store ever, and are still my favorite, to this day. They're so clean and shiny, and they give kids free cookies at the bakery, every time you go, and they have the little carts, so kids can have a cart, too. They are the bestest, and are also awesome.

But Cindy, it would still be broccoli. Brocooli is a vegetation abomination (which fwiw, would make a great band name).

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There are (or used to be) many Piggly-Wigglys in rural Minnesota.
Little-known fact: Piggly-Wiggly was founded by Joseph Piggly and Archibald Wiggly.
Little known because I made it up....

Kristin, Sasha is so cute. The ear thing? Killer! And the pic of them in the snow is all, "huh? wha?"

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
Wow. She's gotten big Kristin.
My best friend just got a Wiemeriner (almost certainly spelled wrong) puppy this weekend. Her husband just got rid of his Whippet because it was a "bad dog", and said she was being selfish if she wouldn't let him get his own dog (she has a Chihuahua and a Greyhound). I know they're supposed to be pretty even tempered, but I'm afraid that when he starts to get big fast, they won't have spent cute puppy time on dicipline and he'll go the way of Indy (the whippet).
