Is 2012 the year that pizza got...weird? We ask because today not only were we introduced to the amazing, insane, wiener-chopping Pizza Boomerang—if you haven't watched that yet, just click the link and get to it, we'll wait—and now we find ourselves trying to figure out what in the world to make of the 2012 pinup calendar from LES pizza joint L'asso. Look, we love pizza as much as the next blog, but even we are not sure about taking a pie on as a lover...
Not only does the $10 "Pizza Is My Lover" calendar include pics of 'za reclining on chairs, bound in leather and walking down the beach...it also has a very naughty centerfold. Yup. 2012: The Year Pizza Got Weird.
