A man did this in London in 1810, but with everything - chimney sweeps, piano deliveries, priests, lawyers, coal carts, doctors, undertakers, the archbishop of Canterbury...
It brought the whole area to a standstill and the guy won a guinea in a bet and ran away to the countryside
Wow. So this was probably the first reflection/amplification ddos in history.
thanks for the link. I almost cried with laughter trying to picture it.
I really hope the order of events is the actual order they happened in because the escalation is perfect
When I was a kid I ordered a escort to our house for my stepfather.
My mom got home about ten minutes before she showed up and the fireworks started!
The next guy was a bit nicer.
LMAO, I take it he wasn't very nice lol
Anon only ordered one pizza that evening, but he ate it all!
What is that font? Makes me feel dyslexic.
IIRC it's one of the handwriting fonts they have on Samsung phones. Choco Cooky, Cool Jazz, etc.
I doubt the pizza delivery guys care enough to linger around.
They want their money, though. And I bet some of them were curious what this was all about.
I mean, is this story set in the 90s? Where can you order pizza from today that:
doesn't have caller ID (oh hey, the same number is calling again for the 12th time tonight)
doesn't require payment up front
Wouldn't notice that every sequential house on the same street had ordered
It was specified that there were multiple pizza delivery services. Even so 1. requires the phone operator to notice, 2. was perfectly normal a few years ago and I know some places where it's still possible.
Hmm maybe the story is fake. or gay.
