gollark: I'm obviously not colluding. I don't even know what pizza is. What is pizza?
gollark: It's also what someone not doing that would say, however, and as I am obviously not that - specifically, I am not involved in any way with the companies involved in production, distribution or marketing of pizza or other baked goods (I don't even eat pizza) - I am of course not colluding with said firms.
gollark: Is this cheese? Of course not.
