Proof that doing good things is American

I have good internet. It's Speakeasy internet, in fact. It's insanely stable, great customer service, and, best of all, they let you share it, run servers on it, do pretty much whatever you want. So, when I saw a note on my apartment building door that my downstairs neighbor wanted to share an internet connection, I immediately jotted down my SSID information and gave it to her. I denied any payment, since, well, there's no real reason. In response, I'm getting pie.

You heard me. DOING GOOD THINGS IS AMERICAN. It gets you pie. So, the next time you see anybody in need, help them! This has been a public service announcement, sponsored by pie. Because we're good train-hating BMW-driving video-game-playing pie-eating Americans here.

What kind of pie? Because I'm pretty sure the saying is "As American as apple pie."

Which makes me wonder, what kind of pie do communists eat? Cherry? Asian Pear? Political prisoner?

  - Stop dodging my question. IS IT APPLE?!? That's as American as you can get, Michael.
    
    And I highly doubt they eat cupcakes. Everyone knows that when the communists build things in factories, for the people, by the pound, they don't make a lot of litte things, but rather a few huge ones. And what's a huge cup (of) cake? A whole CAKE. God bless quotas in weight encouraging those crafty communists to be sneaky.

    - Your pie questions just show that you hate our freedom.

    - Actually, it's the most communist invention of all. "All of our people must have a cake." What's more efficient than shrinking the cake and mass producing it?
      
      (and yes, it is apple)
