afghan hounds are such weird looking dogs it’s like if a politician’s wife made a fursona
they come in exactly two flavors and they are “35 year old midwesterner who wants to sell you some essential oils”
and “wizard in disguise who isn’t even trying”
WAIT I just found a third kind and it’s “your state alchemy license is getting revoked”
This is fantastic because aesthetically you are Correct, but every Afghan hound I’ve met IRL has been a Very Careful Doofus because they’re one of the few large dogs aware that they ARE large and capable of accidentally harming humans if they step on them wrong, but this cereberal awareness leaves you with a sense of unease that you can’t identify until a Rabbit or Squirrel appears and you realize this is an animal designed by the rutlessness of nature and the hubris of man to be one of earth’s fastest and most relentless predators that runs on Pure, Ecstatic Bloodlust, the oh-so-carefully coiffed fur whipping around and blurring its shape until it looks like a sylph, an incarnation of the wind itself, and that mental concentration becomes a terminator-like focus until it’s prey is cornered or just run to the point of exhaustion and it lays prone, panting on the ground and profoundly aware of it’s mortality and the hound stops, body unnaturally frozen over it’s quarry and it turns to look back at you, jovial and inviting, for you to come and fulfill the contract of millenia, to kill the creature it has so lovingly run down for you.
1. They are, unfortunately, in Toronto, but this means @theshitpostcalligrapher or @pangur-and-grim are in that area(ish?) and I will pay one or both of you to get some and report back.
2. I need that Holy Duck Pizza. and one of thier Indulgences.
3. their website is fucking https://church.pizza/ and it plays music when you log on.
It is essentially a poutine pizza. All the pizzas come with a whole roasted garlic in the middle which is cool bc I am a garlic fiend. This one was fucking delicious 10/10 the only problem is I only managed to consume half of it because turns out French fries and gravy on a pizza is a very filling combo. The duck breast was especially tasty and I would very much recommend provided you have a large appetite and/or like leftovers
My mom got the garden of eden pizza which I unfortunately forgot to take a picture of. It was also very good although I personally thought there was too much Leaf on it but that’s just me. Would recommend if u like a little bit of spicy (banana peppers) and enjoy copious amounts of Leaf. 8/10.
ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC, I AM DELIGHTED TO KNOW THEY ARE STILL IN BUSINESS.
Also, Enormous Pile Of Leaf On Pizza Is Good, Actually. Especially if it’s mixed greens or arugula, the bitter ones cut the grease of the pizza really balances the flavors.
