‘No Onions? No Thanks!’ Texas Man Declares War on Italian Pizza Purists

onions on pizza

DALLAS, TX — Dustin Lack, a Texas native with a fiery culinary philosophy, has sparked a nationwide debate with his bold proclamation that Italian pizza, as it stands, is an overrated travesty—and it all boils down to their blatant disregard for onions. Known among friends as a self-proclaimed “onion evangelist,” Lack has made it his personal mission to challenge the traditions of Italian cuisine, one spicy, onion-laden argument at a time.

“I mean, what kind of cuisine refuses onions?!” Lack exclaimed during a recent gathering with friends, where his tirade against Italian pizza reportedly overshadowed the event’s actual purpose. “No spice, no onions, just dough, sauce, and some half-hearted cheese? That’s not pizza—it’s bread with trust issues!”

An Obsession Layered Like an Onion

Friends and family have long been aware of Lack’s unrelenting devotion to the almighty onion. “He doesn’t just eat onions; he lives them,” said a close friend, who requested anonymity for fear of becoming embroiled in the ongoing Italian food debate. “He once tried to convince me that an onion could be a standalone meal. And honestly, he almost had me convinced.”

Lack’s fridge is reportedly stocked with onions of every variety, from sweet Vidalias to fiery reds, and his kitchen counter features a dedicated cutting board just for onion prep. His obsession knows no bounds: he’s been known to request extra onions on everything, from burgers to nachos, and even suggested adding caramelized onions to a dessert.

Taking Aim at Italian Cuisine

While his onion fixation is one thing, Lack’s war on Italian cuisine has become the stuff of legend. “It’s not just the lack of onions; it’s the lack of spice, the refusal to innovate,” he ranted during a recent conversation with friends. “Italian food is all pomp, no substance. How do you look at pizza and think, ‘You know what this doesn’t need? Flavor’?”

The statement reportedly sparked a heated debate that left one attendee Googling “spicy Italian dishes” in a desperate attempt to prove him wrong. “He just kept doubling down,” the attendee said. “At one point, he declared that even tomatos are overrated and onions should replace it in all recipes. It was chaos.”

Reactions Pour In Like Olive Oil

Social media has been ablaze with commentary since Lack’s remarks went public. Memes and hashtags such as #OnionRevolution, #PizzaWithSpice, and the divisive #DownWithItaly have taken off. One commenter wrote, “I can’t believe I’m witnessing someone trying to cancel an entire country’s cuisine. Only in Texas.”

Italian food purists have not taken the criticism lightly. “We invented pizza, and we can un-invent it for you!” one outraged commenter tweeted, garnering thousands of likes.

A Vision for the Future

Despite the backlash, Lack shows no signs of retreating from his spicy, onion-laden hill. In fact, he’s reportedly drafting plans for a food truck concept tentatively named “Layered and Spiced,” where every dish promises “enough onions to make you cry tears of joy—or pain.”

When asked if he fears offending traditionalists, Lack simply shrugged. “If the truth hurts, maybe it’s time for Italian cuisine to season their wounds.”

As the debate continues to sizzle, one thing is certain: Dustin Lack isn’t backing down. Whether he’s a visionary or a villain depends on who you ask—but his onions are here to stay.

Kimono and Chaos: St. Thomas Man’s J’ouvert Performance Goes Viral

St. Thomas revelers were treated to an unforgettable spectacle at this year’s J’ouvert celebrations, courtesy of local legend Duncan, better known in party circles as “Captain Whiskey K.” Draped in his signature kimono over a classic white wife-beater, Duncan took to the streets with a bottle of rum in hand, proving once again that the island’s most unpredictable performer never disappoints.

The Rise of Captain Whiskey K

Known for his wild antics and unshakable love for soca music, Duncan’s transformation into Captain Whiskey K is as much a J’ouvert tradition as paint, powder, and parades. According to witnesses, the transformation into Captain According to witnesses, the transformation into Captain Whiskey K was complete the moment Duncan raised his rum bottle high and declared, ‘Rum buddies for life!’ From then on, it was clear he was ready to take charge of the J’ouvert celebrations.

Leaning Into Trouble

The Captain’s signature move—leaning at an impossible angle while attempting to dance and walk simultaneously—became the talk of the event. “It was like he was testing the limits of his own balance, and losing,” said one amused bystander. “But he never spilled a drop of rum, so I guess that’s impressive in its own way.”

Duncan’s tipsy swagger was accompanied by impromptu inspections for what he affectionately calls “bumpa violations,” earning him both laughs and the occasional playful scolding from fellow revelers.

Reactions From the Crowd

Social media lit up with videos of Captain Whiskey K’s exploits, with hashtags like #KimonoKing and #CaptainLeansalot trending locally. One viral clip shows him passionately explaining to a confused tourist that his kimono isn’t just fashion—it’s “a lifestyle choice.”

“He’s like a J’ouvert superhero,” said one fan. “But instead of saving people, he just makes us laugh until our stomachs hurt.”

The Captain’s Legacy

As the sun rose and J’ouvert wound down, Duncan—still leaning—delivered one final toast to his fellow rum buddies before disappearing into the crowd like a true island enigma. Rumor has it, plans are already underway for Captain Whiskey K to launch a line of party kimonos in time for next year’s festivities.

When asked about his next adventure, Duncan simply declared, “Where there’s rum and soca, you’ll find the Captain.”

Local Man Claims Box Bar Is His ‘Real Office,’ Submits Beer Tab as Work Expense

St. Thomas, USVI—In what coworkers are calling a “bold strategy,” David Cole, a quiet yet eccentric local, made waves in his workplace this week after submitting his Box Bar beer tab as a professional expense, claiming the spot is his “primary networking hub.”

Known for his steadfast commitment to Miller Lite, David can be found at Yacht Haven’s Box Bar almost every evening, sipping what he considers the “nectar of the gods.” According to witnesses, his argument for the expense report was as smooth as the first sip of a cold Lite.

“I don’t go to the office to make connections. I go to Box Bar,” David allegedly wrote in his justification. “The deals I seal here might not be on paper, but they’re sealed in Lite.”

A Case of Creative Accounting

The expense report, submitted last week, totaled several months of beer consumption, amounting to what one coworker described as “a shocking amount of Miller Lite.” When HR questioned why the receipts were exclusively from Box Bar, David calmly replied, “That’s where the magic happens.”

Local bartender Paul at Box Bar corroborated David’s claims, saying, “Yeah, he’s here every day. Doesn’t talk much, but he drinks like a pro. If he’s closing deals, I haven’t seen it, but I’ll back him up if it keeps him coming back.”

Beer Diplomacy

While his colleagues initially dismissed the move as a joke, they’re starting to see the genius in David’s strategy. “Honestly, Box Bar is a great place to meet people,” said one coworker. “You’ve got yachties, tourists, locals—you never know who you’ll run into. Maybe David’s on to something.”

Even Box Bar regulars have noticed David’s low-key networking style. “He just sits there with his Miller Lite, quietly observing,” said one patron. “It’s like he’s absorbing information through osmosis—or maybe just the beer.”

HR’s Response

Though HR hasn’t officially approved the expense yet, sources close to the situation say David’s argument has left the team scratching their heads. “The thing is, he’s technically not wrong,” said an anonymous HR rep. “If he’s building relationships and furthering his career over beers, who are we to judge? Honestly, it’s kind of inspiring.”

A Lite Hustle

When asked if he’d change his approach if the expense was denied, David shrugged and took a sip of his beer. “Work-life balance is a myth,” he said. “For me, work is life—and life is Lite.”

As of now, David remains a loyal patron of Box Bar, regardless of whether his expense report goes through. “I don’t do it for the money,” he said. “I do it for the beer.”

And with that, he raised a Miller Lite to toast what he calls his “office with a view.”
