If I may, can I respectfully request a group resistance to the abbreviation " 'za " for pizza ?
I mean, I've never really heard anyone actually use this in a spoken conversation as in " Malnati's has the best deep dish 'za" or " I can't believe how much they charge for a thin crust 'za in New York", or - god help us - "Gotta get me some Spacca 'za", right?
And, while I can ROTFLMAO with the best of them, where is the typing economy of hitting Shift-Apostrophe-Z-A instead of P-I-Z-Z-A ? To save, what, a single keystroke?
Nope, I'm sorry, but "'za" is silly, not at all clever, and a phonetically awkward term and while - granted - this may not be an issue worthy of the General Assembly at OWS, I really felt I had to say something.
I feel better now - thanks.
