I like a deep dish pizza every now and then. New York and Chicago style pizza I like the best. Also more then willing to spend more then 10 for a good pizza.
Then again I drive a BMW,......it would seem that affects my choice for better pizza.

Thick crust pizza FTL... 
Thin crust is the only way to go. Pizza is all about ratios. Crust to topping ratio. There is a balance between how much topping to put on a thin crust pizza to get the perfect taste.
Folding pizza in half is a
Have you no manners?
Pizza is to be eaten with TWO hands. One on the crust, the other for stabilizing the point.
Folding in half was invented back when party animals realized that if they folded the pizza in half, they could hold it with ONE hand and hold their BEER in the other.

I love Pizza Hut pizzas (meat lovers with no italian sausage) and those are $10+ each. That said, normally we just get a $5 pizza from Little Caesar's.
I hate thin crust but I like the pan crust (just a bit thicker but not quite "normal" crust size).

I'll throw in so thoughts:
- If you've never tried New York City/Jersey pizza, then you can't talk about what real pizza tastes like, simple as that.
-A good plain pizza around here will cost around $10, and my personal favorite half meatball, half breaded chicken is $16. I will gladly pay that price for a good slice.
-Folding is the only right way to eat a slice of pizza....how else would you hold a beer/the remote/a garlic knot and eat pizza at the same time?
-Dominos/Pizza Hut/Papa Johns do not make real pizza, and if you consider their pizza good, you should be shot. Pizza needs to be made by a overweight greasy italian dude who hasn't washed his hands in weeks.
-Regular crust is the best tasting to me....Thin crust tastes like matzah bread and deep dish is all dough.
-If the pizza isn't oozing with grease then it's not made right.
-Pizza should never be used as the main food of a formal meal sit down meal. It should always be eaten on paper/platic plates.
-If your local pizzeria doesn't have an employee named Tony, Frank, Vinny, Mario, or any true Italian...well it's time to look elsewhere.
getting off topic, would that happen to be Romano's Big Pizza in Rockaway? They make a mean 28" pizza. Plus you can get 2 slices (off a 28" pie) 6 garlic knots and a soda for $5. Not the best pizza, but it's a good deal.

My favorite comes from a place that proudly states that it's bona-fide East Coast. . . Rockaway, if I remember correctly. My number 2 spot states it's a NJ recipe.

Have you no manners?Folding it is the RIGHT way to eat it. **Important side note:** Always have 2 stacked paper plates under the slice when attempting a fold as you are guaranteed to lose some grease. (Plate on the bottom is to protect against soak-through of the first plate).

You mean you guys don't care for California Pizza Kitchen?
I hope you were being facetious..
California Pizza Kitchen sucks on a whole bunch of levels.
The whole....foldin in half... I was playing. I agree that the local mom and pops pizzarias are far better than the mainstream corporate pizza joints.
