Anyone wondering why pants won't fit after eating 5,000 calories of pizza (not incl. the soda and other stuff you'd have to be consuming over those two days) is a total idiot.
OH MY GOD THANK YOU FOR THE REMINDER OF HOW I GREW OUT OF MY PANTS OVERNIGHT, MASON

Back to our subject: What are main differences between Durham and Raleigh? I know someone considering retirement in either one. (She wanted Asheville-Hendersonville, but housing prices are through the roof there. Oh well, she has good taste anyway.) So ... Durham vs. Raleigh: quality of life, walkability, safety, amenities, environment, etc. Any opinions? Thanks.
Stressed-out people should move to North Carolina, especially a great place like Asheville. Less stress = wiser pizza-eating. Just wish Asheville was still affordable. It's really become the Santa Fe of the Deep South.

Great pizza or lousy, an 18-in. pizza still gets you 5,000 calories and jeans that don't fit.

Homo sapiens actually require calories to sustain life.

Just one problem with that line: your average fairly sedentary modern Homo sapiens (who isn't a teenager or isn't a linebacker). The average American woman over 25 requires just 1,800-2,000 calories daily. Average man, 2,500 max. Those 5,000-cal., 18-in. pizzas aren't a great "regular fit" for regular Homo sapiens.

That's an interesting perspective and quite a bit out of touch. The US average home price for a 3/2 home right now is 330K. There's currently 120 3 bedroom/2 bath homes for sale in the Asheville area market priced from 250K-350K, and on the other hand Santa Fe has just 29 which makes the statement half accurate.

I had the best neopolitan pizza in the Boston area this weekend at a place in Chelsea, MA called Ciao! Pizza - prosciutto, arugula, mozzarella/gorgonzola, port and fig jam, balsamic vinegar = chefs kiss
Definitely less stressed now after that
