When the moon hits your eye like a big pizza pie... is that in fact amore? Because I think it's a sign that your eyes need checking. That may not be the moon, Alice.→[More:]
What about if a moon pie hits your pizza, splattering you in the eye?
And what if you wear glasses, or contacts? Falling in love could be really dangerous, what with things slamming into your eyes and breaking the lenses and all. It's best for lovesick people with less than 20-20 vision to just stay inside with the curtains drawn at all times, because in addition to the way the moon threatens your eyesight, you never know when there could be an eclipse during the day that could take you totally by surprise. That's why people are warned never to look directly into an eclipse...it's the moon and the hot pizza cheese slamming into your eyes that blinds you, not the sun, like everyone thinks.
So then, what's a more? Is that what they mean? If you don't follow those niggly unwritten rules, you get a moon-sized, steaming hot pizza right in the eye? That seems a bit extreme, doesn't it?
In the official rules of bukakke, isn't a penalty awarded against direct, open eye contact? I know that glasses and other eyeware are generally bad form and thus, if I am correct, there are rules against any eye-damaging engagements. I've always played it that way, but maybe it's a local thing.
kmellis, I thought about it after I posted it and realized that "pizza bukakke" would be shooting hot cheese and sauce out of your dick and onto a girl's face. My very next thought was that that is utterly impossible.
