Love it! So much better than text answers. Not even joking.

Apparently Nick Jensen got Lasik after signing his rookie contract. The Nicklas Backstrom thing is harder to figure out. It’s some kind of breakfast food, but what? Eggs over easy?

[knoxblox]

I think it’s pizza with pro-hockey level portions, 3 slices per.

[DonatellaNobody]

Huh. Could be. People do like pizza for breakfast. But three pepperoni slices on the entire pizza? I hope he got a refund.

[knoxblox]

Well, it’s symbolic drawing. The waiter likely had a nose like an upside-down numeral seven.

[DonatellaNobody]

Well, symbolically I want more pepperoni than that.

[DonatellaNobody]

If I had to draw my “favorite food”, it would be the platonic ideal of that food. So I’d give myself way more than three pepperoni

[Tamsin_Bailey]

There may be a pizza base under there.

[DonatellaNobody]

[knoxblox]

I bet the anchovies walked away with your pepperonis.

[DonatellaNobody]

Oh, is that what those squiggly things are?

Too salty. If I’m having anchovies on pizza, I’d rather have pineapple instead of pepperoni.

Looks like 3 poached eggs to me

[DonatellaNobody]

That’s what I thought. It looks very eggy to me. Maybe too eggy, if you know what I mean…

I think I saw that in a high school biology textbook…

Or maybe it was sex ed…

[Scientist]

I hadn’t thought of that cause there should be a 4th, but yeah it looks like a drawing of a zygote

[knoxblox]

The hot new breakfast cereal, Zyg-Oats!

[DonatellaNobody]

That is obviously a drawing of a zygote, but now I think it looks like pancakes.
