I think you may have overreacted. They do that around my way all the time when you order pizza by card and it's delivery. AND there was noone but minors in the house? Yeah, they do that to cover themselves in case kids ordered pizza with mom and dad's card and mom and dad cancel the payment.... Kinda like what you just did.Oh, I can see them wanting to cover themselves, but taking a rubbing of a different card?
And, considering the pizza was already paid for, the rubbing does them no good whatsoever. I can still cancel the payment, rubbing or not. The only way the rubbing would come into play is if I denied ever having pizza delivered and they came after me in court.These days much better to take a picture of yourself handing the pizza to the kids. "There's proof I delivered! Now pay up!"
they'd be hammered for child porn in my jurisdiction if they did that(no really, it doesn't matter how many clothes they have on, you take a pic of a kid without permission, that's where the court goes).
It's silly, but I can see why the guy did that. If you have the option to on the site next time let the delivery guy know the situation before he shows up, he'll be a lot less suspicious that way.

Much like my nudity. See how calm you are around me naked? It's very soothing, my nudity is, yes.

LOL. In the comments on the order it said, "I will be away so my kids will be signing for the pizza. I left a note."
And I had a note on the door and everything.
EDIT: But honestly, your responses have relaxed me quite a bit. It's not something we see around here, so I was immensely suspicious. The guy must be from back east or something. The previous guy just dropped it with the kids no problem.

Tiny T-Rex is being transformed into a Minecraft Zombie as we speak. for his school's costume party, which is more for the parents, I expect the usual crowd of Jedi wannabes and sexy pixies (for the parents, I mean)

Yes! Some kid is dressed as Green Man.
Lot of sexy witches and fifties chicks.
And there are entirely too many older women dressed as sexy tigers.
More cavemen then I expected.
If anyone asks, I'm Eddie Vedder, circa 1993.

I think Rysky was referring to CY's Pea Bear winning the costume contest and not NobodysHome's misadventures with the Pizza Noid.

Pea Bear is pretending like she doesn't see us.

I'm shocked, shocked I say! That a twelve year old would pretend like she doesn't know her own parents.
We're cool! Damn it!
Maybe it's because I wave like a loon when she walks past. :-)

LOL. Speaking of 12-year-olds, I think I might have deduced the entire pizza fiasco thing of which I am making a Great Deal.
Impus Major has the Perception roll of a stat-dumped paladin.
So in all past kids-only deliveries, it's been Impus Minor getting the door.
So, you're a pizza delivery guy. Is the nerdy 12-year-old with glasses trying to pull a fast one on you? Probably not. Too young, too hyper. No way he's trying to pull one over.
What about the scrawny 15-year-old with the deep voice and the deeper sarcasm? Now THAT'S a con man if I ever saw one! Card, please!
I'm still interested in whether it's commonplace in other places. No local person I talked to has EVER heard of a deliveryperson writing down/copying a card number.
Another weird West Coast thing, mayhaps.

Your duty as an adult is to regularly embarrass your children publicly in new and unexpected ways. It builds character.

The nice thing about living in a college town is exceptional takeout is always within three blocks to a mile.
I haven't had food delivered in years.
Also our street does hilarious and terrible things to GPS, so it's faster to walk over and pick it up.

Wow. Tool played Little Rock tonight, and I was there!! Great, great show. I don't even stand up for that long at one stretch at work. No trouble sleeping tonight, guaranteed.
If not for time constraints, I'd have tried to get a meet with DungeonmasterCal, but my companions have to head back early AM tomorrow.

They need to stop doing everything else and make a new album already. Even touring if that's what it takes. Its been too long.
...almost...as if they're waiting 10,000 days to release it.
| 1 person marked this as a favorite. |
Sadly, they make ten times as much money from touring as they do releasing new material.
Plus, then they get to play the nostalgia angle, instead of having the washed up and old angle and being forced to spend the rest of their days playing second rate casinos.

Yes but then you have to leave the house.
And that means I have to wear pants.

We had a fun weekend planned, with Suicide Squad, a sleepover and Doom Comes To Dustpawn. Instead, because Pea Bear didn't do s%*& for her book report that she literally had all semester or whatever to do we won't be doing any of that.
Tiny T-Rex still gets to do fun stuff though, probably Finding Dory.
I'm still pretty f&#+ing disappointed. :-(

I guess as long as you have shoes and a shirt, the restaurant has to let you in. It says so right on the door.

Freehold
I have the complete set for Imperial Director Krennic.
After trying it on I nearly laughed maniacally despite myself (true story).
Imperial Arem Heshvaun is even more Imperial.
DOOD THAT'S FAWESOME!

Using your brain probably not encouraged.
Unless you have any ideas on how to abduct and then become Regis Philbin. I'm crowd sourcing this scheme, on account of all my previous schemes not panning out.

I wear it in my meditation chamber every night.
And here too, The Night of The Fallen (Angels), we have six Victoria Secrets Angels hosting.
By the way, I thought of the name which sounds like an AP title, becuase we could not use "Victoria Secrets" on the logo.

Okay, so, the wife and I just finished Black Butler Season 1.
HOW THE HECK CAN THERE BE A SEASON 2?!
