Reply to comment by ruiner8850 in TIL: The Chamblee Incident. In 1989, Kenneth Lamar Noid, a mentally ill man who believed that the Domino's Pizza "Avoid the Noid" ads were personally directed towards him, antagonizing him. He took 2 Domino's employees hostage at gunpoint. by SilentWalrus92

Opened up in the same strip as an old time pizza place, which was the last straw for the guy to decide to retire after his lease came up.. I had been eating their since i was a kid.

They suck. Farm ore than the pizza.. but i digress..

It was once an acceptable pizza and a good deal, good delivery service ... last century. It has been that long since I ordered one.

I've have had a few bland slices since. My mass produced precooked rewarmed elementary school slop was better.

The corner shop is better and cheaper if you pick it up, a dollar more delivery and pretty fast, some crazy weekend delay every few years but hey. Similar pie to old Dominoes crust really, sweeter sauce no-H.burn.

Dominoes did create the time standard for food delivery that all similar service is now based on really. I think they shaved about 20 minutes off the average food times.

They cheaped out 1900s and have been surviving on a logo. Once market recognition is strong enough, it's really hard to fail anymore; "We're dumb". (i did ad work..disgusting uses of cool tricks, just look away)
