Unfortunately any story that’s this too good to be true – isn’t true. But I must go and investigate for myself.
Bloomberg Refused Second Slice of Pizza at Local Restaurant
Mayor Bloomberg, not accustomed to being challenged, assumed that the owner was joking.
“OK, that’s funny,” he remarked, “because of the soda thing … No come on. I’m not kidding. I haven’t eaten all morning, just send over another pepperoni.”
“I’m sorry sir. We’re serious,” Benito insisted. “We’ve decided that eating more than one piece isn’t healthy for you, and so we’re forbidding you from doing it.”
“Look jackass,” Bloomberg retorted, his anger boiling, “I fucking skipped breakfast this morning just so I could eat four slices of your pizza. Don’t be a schmuck, just get back to the kitchen and bring out some fucking pizza, okay.”
“I’m sorry sir, there’s nothing I can do,” the owner repeated. “Maybe you could go to several restaurants and get one slice at each. At least that way you’re walking. You know, burning calories.”
H/T to The Lonely Libertarian.
It may not be true, but it sure as heck should be. Swing by and pick me up on your way there; it’s my weekend off. I’ll split the gas with you. Just make sure I’m back in time for work monday morning…
That originated on the Daily Currant website, which calls themselves “The Global Satirical Newspaper of Record.” So I dunno if it’s really real although it would be awesome if it was hehe.

I saw it via Freedom Outlaw FB.
ATTENTION ALL PERSONNEL.
The Daily Currant is satire.
So is The Onion.
Please do not use these as primary news sources even if they are more accurate than CNN, MSNBC, NYT, WaPo, LATimes, and 99% of HuffPo (they improved somewhat by hiring Balko).
THAT IS ALL.
Really, though; this one should have been obvious: A New Yorker objecting to Bloomie’s nanny tyranny? The idiots who clearly like and need to be nannied cradle to grave so much they elected him three frickin’ times?
