Alex,

Yup, you sort of like did--not so much with your use of "myself" but with your use of the word "like." The oh-so-so correct wording should be, "such as myself" or "such as I," albeit stilted and stuffy-sounding. Now aren't you glad you asked?

Answer to second question: Deep-dish pizza. This is something I would never say or write, however, because I prefer thin-crust pizza, the old-fashioned kind.
