Picking the Pizza Slice

Have you ever seen someone walk up to a pizza and grab a slice at random?  I haven't.  No, I take that back, I have.  When there was one slice left.

Not every pizza slice is created equal.  Everyone has a method for choosing their slice of pizza, and it all depends on multiple variables.

Size: The slice should be larger than most slices, but not the largest.  When choosing the largest people tend to look at you like maybe you're the piggy of the group.  There's always a girl that says "I want the smallest slice!"  This girl is lying.  She is hungry, but she wants to act demure and is anorexic watching her weight.  This girl is guaranteed to get a very well hidden eye roll from every other girl in the room.

Toppings: Depending on your preferences a slice is chosen based on the number of toppings.  You hunt for a slice with the smallest amount of your least favorite toppings, while at the same time has an agreeable amount of your favorite toppings. 

Crust:  The crust on a pizza could be a deal breaker.  Some pizza places make great crust, while others leave a lot to be desired.  So pizza brand is definitely included in your consideration.  Depending on whether or not you're a crust eater, a small-crusted slice or one heavy on the crust is another variable.

Air Bubbles: Admit it- no matter how old you get you still see a huge air bubble on your pizza as a phenomenon.  A big ol' air bubble on the center on your pizza slice is no good; that can effectively eliminate a good 18% of your pizza in a puff of air.  An air bubble on the crust however, can still be viewed as wondrous and is more acceptable.

I love watching people choose their pizza, I can see their brain working as they scan over the pizza to weigh their options and select the slice that meets their needs.  Personally, I select a slice that is medium sized, has the crispiest pepperoni, and heavy on the crust (for Papa Johns, that is).  What do you look for in a pizza slice?
