Commentary
I am both Mr. Largepizza and Bridgette in this scenario depending on what day of the week it is.
I had concerns about even doing this storyline, but I'm enjoying the heck out of it thanks to this "the characters are acting" nonsense.
I might have gotten a little lazy with the "Mr. Largepizza" name, but I assume any name that is a combination of toppings is almost certainly already an obscure mascot for some pizza place somewhere.
As for Bridgett for Ashley, I would like to claim it's for some clever reason like "Ashley starts with an A, so let's go with a B name!" But no, it's the first thing that popped into my head, and I was like "cool, let's go with that."
Pizza?
People have speculated about what "pizza" is a metaphor in this storyline, but really, it could be pretty much anything people have opinions about (up to and including pizza) with the cohesiveness of the metaphor fluctuating depending on what you replace pizza with and the particular moment we're at.

Just so long as Ashley isn't REALLY Bridgette from Linkedin - I don't think I could handle that plot twist....

It's not you, Dan. It's us.

Ah well intentioned naive optimism, got rid of that before I STARTED my first job. Should have made him Italian: Signor Grandepizza

Given how excited Tensaided was for the "Minotaur" transformation, he is definately capable of more energy, although it's conceivable that he's not willing to put that much energy into acting. Or maybe he's a better actor due to years of RPing, and knows how to not chew the scenery? ...I guess there are actually a lot of possible explanations for that now that I think about it.

This should be fixed now.

Whoa, hey now. "Tensaided" took *some* thought, and it was done in a way in which people might not even realize what I did there until a sudden epiphany later on.

"Largepizza" is no more lazy than "Tensaided". :p
Dan Shive
... ... How do I keep doing stuff like this.

"This has been an overacted public service announcement by the cast of El Goonish Shive"

Acting, heck, they're overacting and scenery-chewing so much it's as if the scenery is made of pizzas or something. Except Tensaided. Although that may actually be as overacting as Tensaided gets. In any case, it's great fun.

It’s obvious what pizza is a metaphor for. Trigger warnings :P https://egscomics.com/egsnp/2016-05-23 (still a favourite of mine)

Hmmm, yeah, I bet that's it. I had a similar issue with file resolution from another Patreon I follow. At least you attach the full-size pic to the post, though. That other Patreon doesn't. :(

This appears to be a bug that Patreon is having in general right now.

Hmmm, odd. Something's gone wonky with the image size. The attached image is the proper resolution, but the post's main image is super small, even when you click it to view in the lightbox.
