The Perils of Sharing Pizza

2024

 

Sharing a pizza with friends builds strong bonds and builds trust and togetherness, and not just because pizza is a tasty meal.   Friends sharing pizza also work together to overcome the social perils presented when the pizza is served!

 

First, the number of slices into which the pizza is cut never matches an even multiple of the number of friends.  Who gets more slices, and who gets fewer?

 

Then, the size of the slices usually isn't even.  Are you going to be the guy who conspicuously takes the big slice?

 

Perhaps whoever ordered didn't consult everyone on the toppings.  Anchovies?  Pineapple?  Anchovies AND pineapple?  Who did this?

 

Yet, the sharing process works out!  Everyone has a good time, the pizza platter is soon empty, the bonds of friendship are renewed once more.   Pizza more often!
