This is the story of Dave, who, while attending his company's annual "Black Tie & Brews" gala, realized he had overlooked one crucial detail of a four-hour open bar: a concrete dinner plan.
Desperate to avoid the dreaded "champagne flu" and realizing the hors d'oeuvres were entirely composed of garnished cucumber slices, Dave hatched a daring scheme. He ordered a full, premium pepperoni pizza with a pint of craft pale ale. When the food arrived, he realized the impossibility of eating it discreetly on the dance floor.
So, he executed a classic "pizza extraction." Cradling the warm wooden paddle like a newborn and balancing the pint with the grace of an acrobat, Dave made a break for the quietest room in the venue: the executive men's room. He secured the largest stall, creating a private pop-up restaurant right there on the tiled floor.
The "VIP lounge" was perfectly suited for his needs—the acoustics were surprisingly good, and there was a lock. However, there was one design flaw: the significant gap at the bottom of the stall.
Just as Dave settled in, happily dipping a crust into the accompanying garlic butter, the gala’s keynote speaker—a very serious man who had given a lecture on "Optimizing Synergy"—entered the stall next door. He looked down, and through the gap, his eyes met the absolute peak of Dave's synergistic optimizations. For a long, silent moment, Dave could only offer a weak thumbs-up from his awkward position.
He never finished that pint.

Pizza is not just for lunch and dinner anymore. Spending all Saturday morning on the couch watching cartoons you’ll need some nutrition to get you all the way to Incredible Hulk or Fat Albert at 11:30am. This breakfast pizza hits the spot. Hey-hey-hey!
