Q: My friend asked me to help him move this weekend. I’m afraid he might order pizza to say thank you.
A: Pizza should never be feared. Free pizza should be celebrated. Anything eaten while you help a friend move should be praised.
Your friend is moving…again. Since you couldn’t come up with a good excuse on the fly, you are stuck on a Saturday morning lugging boxes that weigh more than an elephant with a sweet tooth and a glandular issue. The least he or she can do is buy you lunch (or beer). There are two rules that will allow you to eat half the pizza pie with toppings (hey, it’s still cheaper than hiring a mover). First, if you consume the food and calories at the residence they are leaving, the calories will not travel with you. This is because the truck is full of their sh** so there’s no room for the calories. Second, if your friend is smart, he won’t trust you to help him unload if he feeds you first. If this is the case and you are eating at the new house, the calories were just burned off during the physical exertion. Everyone wins.
Pros: Free pizza and a feeling of accomplishment.
Cons: Lifting heavy stuff.
