This is Southern Califonia dude, we get legit pizza places not that chain garbage that makes pizza out of cardboard and dog shit. Find a local pizzeria, give them your money. Or just get a frozen pizza because even that's better than what those big chain shops shit out.
We used to rely on a local pizzeria, but our favorite closed down and rest didn't really fit our tastes. Somehow, though, the local Papa John turned out good, plus we have an Italian restaurant nearby which offers pizza among other very tasty meals.
Maybe it's different over there but here Dominos costs more than any local place and frozen pizzas despite being significantly worse and also offering less pizza. This goes for other chains as well.
Don't eat chain pizza if you have other options.
I take my pizza very seriously and you should too, it is the food of the gods and deserves respect.
God bad Chinese food is the worst. Bad pizza is one thing, yeah it's an affront to all things good and kind the the universe, but at least you know you can avoid it. Or you ate intentionally because you were hungry kinda tired and fuck it whatever I need pizza.
With Chinese food you can't tell it sucks until you've eaten like half of it and want to die. I can't even tolerate the smell of orange chicken anymore because of some really bad shit I had once. Even when it's from a known good place the smell makes me sick. One day chow mein will be ruined for me and that will be a sad day.
I almost wish I had a Panda Express near me, but there is a local place only a few blocks from my college campus that is excellent and reasonably priced.
Also, maybe your problem is less with bad Chinese food and more that you eat too much of it in one sitting. Which is understandable, I suppose, since I do that every time I get Chinese food.
Luckily, I've yet to have Chinese food ruined for me. I can't stand Orange or General Tso's Chicken, though. Sweet sauce and meat don't mix unless it's barbeque.
No it was bad food. I liked orange chicken quite a bit before then but that shit was just awful. I've had instances where I've eaten too much of something and could still enjoy it later. Basically anytime I have pizza, really. Now every piece of orange chicken is just some horrible chunk of bad chicken just waiting to get me trying to lure me in by looking delicious.
No not this time chicken, never again. I'm on to you.
