Discussion
 A: Have you noticed that people who are really into pizza like to debate the whole thick versus thin crust argument?
Você já notou que as pessoas que adoram pizza gostam de discutir essa questão da massa grossa ou fina.
  B: I certainly have. In fact, I’m even one of them. I totally love thin crust way more than thick.
Com certeza. Na verdade, eu sou uma delas. Eu absolutamente amo a massa mais fina do que grossa...
  A: In my case, if I had to say it, I was raised in a family that only ordered thick crust pizza. It’s kind of the way it ought to be.
No meu caso, eu fui criado numa família que só pedia pizza de massa grossa. A pizza como deve ser...
  B: My parents were like that too, but the older I got, the more I found out that I prefer slices of thin-crust pizza.
Meus pais também eram assim, mas conforme fui crescendo, fui descobrindo que preferia fatias de massa fina.
  A: Look at you Mrs. Expand-Your-Horizons!
Aê, Dona cabeça aberta.
  B: I know. Even worse, I even like pineapple on my pizza.
Isso aí. E o pior é que até gosto de abacaxi na minha pizza.
  A: Thin crust and pineapple, the next thing you know you’ll be saying that you’re going to add green olives on your pizza too!
Massa fina e abacaxi... não vai me dizer agora que também gosta de azeitonas na sua pizza!
  B: Guilty as charged, I do like green olives on my thin crust pizza.
Réu confesso, eu realmente gosto de azeitonas na minha pizza de massa fina.
