Not to be pedantic but if I hold up a frozen pizza and ask what it is, you've got me fucked up if you think you won't answer "a pizza".

It's not frozen before it goes in the oven, it's just ingredients on dough.

But then when it comes out of the oven, it's not pizza either, it's just ingredients on bread? That sort of deconstruction works either way.

We conclude: Pizza is an illusion and does not exist.

Actually, I thought as soon as you bake it, it becomes pie.

Goes to a restaurant

I would like to order a piece of dough flat with sauce and cheese and these toppings then cooked and sliced because Reddit proved words don’t mean anything so unless I’m very specific I might not get what I want because a pizza is just an imaginary construct.

This is a good point, but if you said “Let’s eat this pizza.” I’d say “It’s not cooked.”

Still a raw inedible pizza.

It’s a frozen pizza not ‘a pizza’ the adjective matters in this context.

I can’t eat what you are showing me without cooking it and if I ordered a pizza at a restaurant and they brought me a frozen raw pizza then I’m mad because that’s not what anyone expects when they are offered a pizza.

If I ordered a frozen pizza to go give me the frozen thing, but you pedanticness is complicating the matter rather than clarifying anything.

If I showed you a frozen pizza and this was your answer I'm not sure I'd be the one overcomplicating things mate.

Sorry willfully simplifying things to absurdity is not good.

Frozen pizza is perfectly simple.

Just pizza leaves room for ambiguity

Well a pizza is a pizza, the question is whether a frozen pizza is a pizza?
