I had a near-pizza experience, once.

Dammit. Now I’ve got “The Battle Hymn of the Republic” in my head, except with the (far superior) Hash House Harriers lyrics:

\*Jesus can’t go hashing 'cause the flour falls through his hands,  
Jesus can’t go hashing 'cause the flour falls through his hands,  
Jesus can’t go hashing 'cause the flour falls through his hands,  
Jesus saves, Jesus saves, Jesus saves!

Free beer for all the Hashers…!\*

No that’s not actually what I meant, although I do see how it read like that. Damn kids and our vernacular!

By “gotta hate on religion” I didn’t actually mean the word “hate” I just meant that people rag on it. Using it in the same way that The Biebs dedicates his emmy to his haters and that “haters gotta hate”

Sorry if that post seemed more offensive (as in opposite of defense) than I meant it

I never knew that Christ lived in a 55,000 square foot house and preached about denying healthcare to his apostles and passing the extra costs on to the brethren.

I’ve heard the saying “Christ on a crutch”, but “Christ on a crust” is a new one.

I, for one, am very relieved that it turned out to be a shortening of Christopher or Christine. I’d be pretty depressed if that nasty shit they claim is pizza was the best the son of God could come up with.

Our Papa John’s pizza experiences are managed by “Jeremi”, which is either a funny way of spelling “Jeremy” or a truncation of “Jeremiah”.

I wonder why Christopher would be cut off after 5 letters if Jeremiah can get 6.

“Christ” is six.

Don’t feel bad. My daughter had to point that out to me.

Tim McG  
**Christop** her

A longer name would either be entered as a common shorthand version like, “Chris” or come out as as something longer than, “Christ”. If what you’ve said is true, then there are more than 6 letters available. Two conclusions follow:

1. Someone is intentionally placing, “Christ” on there.
2. There are two fields for the name, with the field for the first name being 6 letters, and the last name field often left blank.

Doesn’t really get my panties in a bunch either way, but I saw this and thought I’d point it out. However, I’d like to think Christ would make better pizza.

It can depend on the font. All characters aren’t necessarily the same width.

In your example the 8 characters in “Christop” are the same length as the 7 characters in “Tim McG”, but in a different font, that may not be true.

If [Buddha](http://www.taxbuddha.com/image/buddha2.jpg) was managing a pizza place, how many intact pizzas would ever make it out of the kitchen? I think all of them would become one with him.
