How do you eat pizza?
As every person in family has a different way of eating pizza, I love finding out what other peoples' methods are.
I've seen some flip one over onto the other and eat two at once with the cheese facing each other. I've seen people take one piece and fold it in half, length-ways before chomping down. Then there's those that just chose to eat it normally.
I'm rather weird, and almost always eat it backwards. Sometimes I go normal and just don't eat the crust, but when it's really good and I do want to eat it, I'll eat it backwards because I don't like the last thing that I eat to be crust and not pizza :)
How about you? What's your technique?

As long as you're picking it up and eating it, you're eating it right. No forks allowed Donald.

Crust first. It's bland, so I get it out of the way at the begining. Cover the whole thing in Ketchup, oregano, onion/garlic powder, NOM NOM NOM!
I eat it normally til I get towards the end, then I fold up the rest of the pizza so that it's against the crust, then eat it like an awesome Italian taco.
Crust first. Then, I usually peel off the cheese and toppings off one slice then put it on another slice. I then eat the toppingless slice and proceed to eat a double topping slice.
I'm weird.
I eat the "normal" - pointy end to wide end way, but don't eat the crust (unless it is flavored or stuffed).
I eat normal and love the crust.
With great gusto - and usually too much!
If I'm home, I slather on some sour cream and add extra salt and pepper.
But of course, I eat it pointy end to crust, including the crust.

But i usually start where there's less toppings then i eat the best bits last
Pointy end to crust, then dunk the crust into the marinara or butter sauce ordered for just that reason.
Normal for me is folding it in half lengthwise but just tight enough so that the end isn't flopping around. When it enters my mouth it's still cheese side up. This is done so that I can eat one handed; not so that it tastes like a calzone. Best tip for that bland crust- leave a sliver of actual pizza and dip it in some Hidden Valley Ranch.
@captainsuperdawg: This is ingenius! Definitely trying this next time :)
Normal IS folded in half the long way, so I'm trying to figure out what you mean when you say normal.
Depending on my mood and what toppings the pizza already has, I might add lots of red pepper flake (I generally take the lid off so it doesn't take five minutes to get enough) or garlic or hot sauce (if at home or work where there are good hot sauces).
