Please help me settle this debate…which has become quite the controversy among my circle of friends. I've even discussed it with my wife and my brother, and we still can't come to a consensus. Here's the deal. Monday night, a couple of buddies came over to watch the football game…as in three of us total…and we ordered a pizza. My local pizza joint cuts the pizza into ten slices…don’t ask me why. That leaves each of us with three slices and one extra. A guy who wasn’t me took the last slice, and I called him out. I am the host. I paid for the pizza. I should get the last slice.
