The Pita Fundamentalists

Beware of the inappropriate and excessive use of the word 'extreme'.

There's this pita joint in my neighbourhood called Extreme Pita, which got me thinking about the recent trend in making the most innocuous thing 'extreme'. How the fuck can you take a sandwich wrap to the max? I mean, it's just a goddamn sandwich. Unless, of course, you wrap a loaded Beretta in one, take a bite and shoot your friend in the face. Or, maybe wrapping some pure smack in a multi-grain fiesta tortilla, concealing it your rectal cavity and muling it across the border. Now, that would be more than an Extreme Pita. That would be the Illicit Pita (or a Senseless Violence Burrito, maybe?). Extreme indeed. Somehow, I don't think snacking on a chicken feta pita sandwich would qualify as an Extreme Pita moment as much as, say, having a falafel wrap while cowering in the midst of heavy artillery fire in the Gaza Strip.
