    As a person who’s been in a Little Caesar’s, can confirm. That’s why the pizzas are so cheap, you must escape a liminal space first

    I get it’s referencing the back rooms, but I don’t get why. No location I’ve ever been to looked anything like that.

      I think the joke is that nobody ever actually enters LC. They just order from there. So there would be no way of knowing if it was actually secretly an entrance to the backrooms

        I order for pickup and it looks like this.

        But now that you mentioned it, what is their back room? Do they even have a kitchen?

        Or do they all just go to the Little Caesars Dimension and through the Pizza Portal and fetch us some Hot-and-Readys by negotiating with the outer gods?

          The door to the back is a portal to the elemental plane of pizza. Employees dip into the back to slay a pizza elemental and harvest its crust whenever they run out of dipping sticks.

          For real. They’re going to get a $5-$6 pizza delivered to them for $15-$20? Are they nuts? Go get real food.

          They partnered with DoorDash a few years ago, and its one of those one driver=multiple stops things. Which means your pizza is usually cold by the time it gets to you.

        This could have been an episode of Reply All, from their “Yes, yes, no” segment. It would go down the Backrooms rabbit hole and back up reminiscing about cheap Little Caesar’s.

    The only ones I have ever been in were just a counter and a clearly visible kitchen behind it with no walls separating them.

    Little caesars is just greese and cardboard. Their dough is cardboard, the sauces are greese, the menu is colored greese on cardboard, the windows are cardboard.

    All the ones I’ve been in it’s just a bunch of us fat dudes crowded around watching another fat dude say “extra most bestest” to some pimply teenager that hates his life.
