I ordered a pizza for the first time in my life today. This is how the conversation went (if it helps, please imagine my tone of voice as Eleven from stranger things when she says bitchin. It was very obvious this was a new and exciting experience for me)

Pizza fella: how can I help you?

Me: ...... I would like pizza

Pizza fella: oookay can I get a name on this order before we start?

Me: oh! Yes! Jennifer rossman!

Pizza fella: all right, what kind of pizza do you want?

Me, with way more confidence than necessary: cheese

Pizza fella: what size?

Me: um.

After much discussion, I am told to order a large

Me: um. Large?

Pizza fella: all right, we got two types of large: a 16 inch round or sheet pizza

Me, suddenly in way over my head:……… i'm sorry, i'm confused by your pizza

Pizza fella, very patiently because I'm pretty sure he thinks I’m seven: we have a 16 inch pizza. It is round. It has eight slices–

Me, excited because i'm trying to feed six people and eight is a larger number than six: ok—

Pizza fella: —so that'll feed three or four people

Me, devastated, wondering who doesn't get pizza: oh no, we have more people

Pizza fella: or we have the sheet pizza, which is a rectangle and should feed 10 people

Me, relieved: oh yes. Yes, we want the big one. The large large please

Thank you, pizza fella. You made this autistic girl's first pizza ordering experience much more pleasant than it could have been LOL
