While I usually condemn Burl’s stinginess, in this instance I can feel a bit of empathy with him. I’ve had someone do this to us when we let her live with us for awhile during a rough patch in her life. She would eat half a large pizza, leaving the other half to feed the other 4 of us. It got so bad that I would actually fix everyone’s plates and serve it out that way rather than let her take what she wanted, because she’d leave precious sod all for the rest of us. So as far as I’m concerned, Dale and Jerry can go get their own meal, and let the Pennys hork up an entire pizza — for which they paid — in peace.
