Ziti

While reporting this story, I had just moved to New Jersey and was mainlining The Sopranos.

In hindsight, this gave me an inflated sense of how common Ziti is as a shared reference.

Shrinking fast.

In Relativity Revealed, back in March, Victor Helm, Thomas Juffman, and Peter Schatzenschneider cite the Lorentz contraction, a prediction of Einstein's special theory of relativity that holds that objects will shrink as they go faster.

And Big Mac Daddy Trump says, hey, you're in a protection racket, kid.

And if you don't engage, if you don't obey, if you don't pull your part and, you know, the five boxes of Ziti or whatever that Scantino had in the Sopranos, we're going to take your store.

We're going to take your house.

We're going to take everything.

Rigatoni.

Ziti.

Ziti Sweeney.

Tortellini.

Tortellini Sweeney.

50 large.

Come on, no bake Ziti.

I mean, he's got, he's got his lines here and there.

That's it.
