FACTS CONSIDERED
A friend took the last slice of shared pizza without offering it to the group.
RULING
The friend committed a violation. The Final Slice Rule requires an offer to the group and a five-second wait before taking the last slice. Neither step occurred. No emergency, prior agreement, or genuine need excuses the conduct.
REMEDY
The friend must provide the next shared pizza and formally offer its last slice to the group. The full five seconds must be observed in silence.
