It specifically says for thrusting or striking. That's where the pizza cutter fails to pass as a sword. πŸ˜”

[–] Warl0k3@lemmy.world 48 points 1 week ago (1 children)

IDK maybe they're just really bad at cutting pizza.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 7 points 1 week ago (1 children)

No fucking way dude, that's slashing damage.

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 week ago

Also if the pizza is really hot, it does burn damage to the roof of your mouth.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 27 points 1 week ago (1 children)

You put the sharp edge on a surface and push forward to cut pizza. That IS thrusting.

Thrusting or striking, you can definitely strike with a pizza sword so it match at least one definition.

[–] thedirtyknapkin@lemmy.world 15 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (4 children)

ah yes, ignoring that it should actuality be a polygon, implying a closed shape with straight sides much like this ignores the "weapon" and "used for thrusting or striking" parts of the definition.

not hard to make strange things fit a definition when you just ignore parts of it.

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

something tells me neither of these are genuine attempts at properly using the definitions but rather clever subversions with deliberately obtuse interpretations in pursuit of... checks notes... humor.

[–] ewigkaiwelo@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Relax, take a deep breath<3

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 7 points 1 week ago (4 children)

No. You can't just put little boxes in the corner and call them right angles THERE ARE RULES WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY

This image makes me angrier than it should. Those 4 "right angle" designations are all lies. You cannot have a curved line attached to anything and call it a "right angle". It's not. Like, factually. I don't care if it's 2 feet long, or 200,000 miles, it will never be exactly 90Β°, which invalidates the entire thing.

[–] letsgo@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (2 children)

OK. Walk in a straight line for a couple of metres and stop. Rotate left or right by exactly 90Β°. Now take a curved path in any direction.

Did you or did you not turn 90Β°?

If Leonardo can use katanas to slice pizza, then I can use this (while pretending to be a turtle)

I was going to ask which squenix protag this was, but your alt text answered that for me.

Why do they all have a certain look to them?

[–] Focal@pawb.social 3 points 1 week ago

If it rains, their socks are pure funnels to get water into the boots

[–] last_philosopher@lemmy.world 14 points 1 week ago (3 children)

A sword by definition has a "pointed blade" accordingly any object with an infinitely long blade cannot be a sword. Rather, it's a blade ray.

[–] rockerface@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago

Swords without a sharpened point had existed. You could only use them for cutting, not thrusting.

[–] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

it does have a point. look at the blade from the side.

pointy bit goes into the pizza.

[–] ultrafastsloth@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago (4 children)

Well it's not infinitely long. It's pi D's long. With D being.. well, let's just say my "peanits"

[–] RaptorBenn@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Im not sure what defines a strike but im pretty sure you wouldnt thrust a pizza cutter. If we're being technical, it doesnt meet the whole definition.

I heard a comedian call these "infinity knives" a few years back, and now it's all I can call them.

[–] dan1101@lemm.ee 12 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That blade is not infinitely long unless you measure the same part over and over again.

[–] 0ops@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago

Fr, what happened to 2Ο€r?

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 11 points 1 week ago (3 children)

No that's a pretty finite length, even if you have to measure the atoms to do it.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 1 points 3 days ago

Wait. Of the blade or the whole thing?

You don't need to leave the kitchen, just need a pi

[–] slappypantsgo@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago

It’s also not length but circumference.

[–] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago

Diogenes ahh post.

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I would totally forge a sword in Skyrim with the shortest blade possible (a nub) and name it β€œPizza Cutter.”

walking around in Dark Souls 4

Find a giant pizza cutter

[–] tmyakal@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I don't know if this is a joke or not. Elden Ring has Ghiza's Wheel as a weapon and is low-key considered "Dark Souls 4" by many fans.

Why not? Honestly i kind of sick with fantasy only using double edged European longsword and Japanese katana.

Give something weirder dammit, like Chinese hook sword and indian katar.

[–] JcbAzPx@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

That's not infinitely long, it's infinitesimally long.

Best weapon in Lies of P.

[–] Deflated0ne@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yo. New Diogenes just dropped.

[–] whostosay@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Have you guys ever received a pizza cut into 9 slices? I have, and I just want to know why, and more importantly how.

[–] ameancow@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago (3 children)

I asked the pizza place to divide the pizza into 0 equal slices and about 20 minutes later there was a loud explosion from downtown. Never did get that pizza.
