Couple slammed for pizza themed gender reveal with people claiming it’s the worst they’ve ever seen
MANY mums-to-be look forward to sharing the news with their loved ones and the internet is littered with elaborate gender reveals.
One new mum has been slammed for her unconventional gender reveal though, with her and her partner making the announcement via pizza.
Though there is no right way to share the exciting news, the internet has hit back at the mum for her unconventional method.
Originally shared on Facebook, it showed the expectant mum proudly standing over the cheesy pizza with the word ‘girl’ spelt out in sliced olives.
While we are sure guests loved grabbing a slice, the announcement wasn’t helped by the wonky lettering and the plain cardboard packing.
To make matters even worse, the word hadn’t even been placed in the centre of the deep-dish pizza and it left a large blank area of cheese.
Despite the mum-to-be proudly standing to take a photo in the busy restaurant, others weren’t so impressed.
Having seen the announcement after it was shared by the restaurant, a former friend decided to post it on Reddit and vent about the pizza-themed party.
Completely unimpressed with the pizza, they shared it in the r/trashy subreddit and wrote: “High school acquaintance wins the award for worst gender reveal ever.”
Needless to say, the post went semi-viral with many agreeing with the Redditor.
Most complained about the state of the pizza, with one user angrily writing: “That pizza looks terrible.”
Others also complained about the pizza’s design, with many questioning why the lettering hadn’t been spaced and why the pizza hadn’t been sliced.
Another added: “I love how they were clearly like, ‘Hey we want a half olive, half cheese pizza. Can you tell us the sex of our baby in the Olives? But it better still be half cheese’.”
To which, a third replied: “They could’ve at least sliced it into 8 pieces and put a G I R and L on 4 of them. Could’ve looked so much better.”
A fourth also complained: “I’ve made better looking pizzas in my sleep.”
Some also questioned why the mum-to-be was so excited about her pizza announcement.
“Like, seriously? That’s the best you could do? And you’re so proud you took a photo and posted it?!?!? GirL,” commented a fifth.
Others, however, defended the expectant mum arguing that this may have been the only option for her.
One impressed Redditor commented: “I really don’t see how this is trashy as much as some poor people having a special day.”
Another argued that she would want to do this with her spouse: “I would do this to my husband just to be funny, because I’m currently pregnant and I always want pizza. It would be a good laugh.”
Some even suggested that the idea wasn’t bad, just the execution.
“L ol, More along the lines of r/cr**pydesign than trashy,” suggested a Redditor.
We wonder whether they will do a similar announcement when the little one is born?
