How do you slow down?

I usually will downshift heel-toe through second and then heel-toe double clutch to first. I can't help not downshifting when I stop, its actually become such a habit for me that I have to put my mind to not doing it.
When I went and test drove a MkV GTI, the salesman asked me to teach him how to heel-toe and double clutch.
Ah this post is great. I always neutral and brake because I don't want to put any more stress on the tranny than necessary and brakes are really easy to replace.
There is this old guy at work that I give a ride home to sometimes. He always gives me crap about not downshifting and that one day he is going to have to show me how to drive the car right. I am glad to see that so many of you guys drive the same way I do. I CAN downshift smoothly, but my 9 year old synchros don't mind a few less shifts these days.

I give my trunk monkey a sling shot and a fist full of nails to shoot my tires out at point blank range in dire situations.

i just give it gas until i run into something, that usually does the trick
actually i downshift my tip all the time.. it's a hoot having to downshift 2 gears when i need to slow down quickly, especially without a tip chip.. if it's sudden stop, obviously i just break
