    The delivery guy probably gets to keep the pizza if there is no recipient

      So you’re saying that the person in the meme did not order the pizza but wants to keep it and tries to accomplish that by pretending there are other people with them? I’m confused, why wouldn’t they just take it without saying anything? How would the delivery person know they are not the one who ordered?

        I interpreted both messages as said by the pizza guy

        1-st one he says that Pizza’s here

        2-nd one he realises that nobody’s there and that he will be able to eat the pizza

        And the joke would be that he couldn’t afford the pizza with his very low wage so he sheds a tear of joy

          That is the wrong interpretation though. It is the person in the house pretending to have friends when the pizza delivery guy arrives.

          What about the “I” in “I shout to the the empty house”? This would mean that the pizza guy refers to himself in first person in the first line but in the third person in the second line which seems very unusual to me.
