One of the top 3 inventions of humankind. Up there with fire and the wheel. Maybe penicillin is a close fourth.
While the concepts you expounded are correct, their order is wrong.
Pizza did come after fire and wheel, but it is, of course, more important of them as it is encapsulating the concepts of "fire" in its forging and "wheel" in its shape.
Clearly, pizza represents the pinnacle of human evolution and, if you so desire, you can have it with a topping of penicillin.
I think I know why you're constipated
Eating pizza with an accidental dose of penicillin tends to have the opposite effect on me.
Is fire an invention? I feel like it is something that happens to us wether we like it or not.
Good point, that means pizza moves up to place 2!
