  1. Which is horrifyingly wrong on just about every possibly level.
  2. You ever tried to deny a 60-pound autistic kid his videos? I don't care if everything else in life falls apart, the internet is always there. derwood can watch whatever he wants http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TY3nIdBXA_Y/UYv-pZtP8iI/AAAAAAAALvk/KJyT4Xn6Yms/s1600/Key-and-Peele.gif
  3. I would call you fancypants for making your own bread and then sadly go eat a lonely sandwich made with pre-sliced bread.
  4. This makes no sense. A McRib sandwich is just a McRib. A sub sandwich is just a sub. An Italian beef sandwich is just an Italian Beef. But a Patty Melt. No, that's a Patty Melt Sandwich. Deeply flawed sandwich; it ultimately gets to be a sandwich because it is on evenly sliced bread, but that key component is also its flaw as the bread cannot structurally support the whole thing. WTF "evenly sliced"? nonsense Man, don't get mad at me because your mom apparently always bought reject loafs of sliced bread.
  5. This makes no sense. A McRib sandwich is just a McRib. A sub sandwich is just a sub. An Italian beef sandwich is just an Italian Beef. But a Patty Melt. No, that's a Patty Melt Sandwich. Deeply flawed sandwich; it ultimately gets to be a sandwich because it is on evenly sliced bread, but that key component is also its flaw as the bread cannot structurally support the whole thing. The other three aren't sandwiches because of what type of bread they have/need.
  6. not even frisco melts? Never had one, but I will try anything at least once.
  7. Man, I do not like patty melts; way too greasy. My stomach will be doing somersaults afterwards every time. But yeah, I'd say they were sandwiches. Deeply flawed sandwiches that shouldn't exist, but yeah, sandwiches.
  8. I'd like to think they did that as reassurance, since hot dogs or hamburgers on sliced bread are indeed legitimate reasons for school uprisings.
  9. It's not a Ham and Cheese sandwich, it's a ham and cheese. No, it's a ham and cheese sandwich. The "sandwich" is often left off because it's just understood you're getting a sandwich. If you ordered a "ham & cheese" or a "ham & cheese sandwich" from a place with a ham & cheese sandwich on the menu you're getting that ham & cheese sandwich. You order a "hot dog sandwich" from anywhere and you're getting some weird looks. I really do love how much this busts up some people's brains. It's totally going just like this:
  10. what the HELL? a sub is most definitely a sandwich you're off the handle now It's too different from a classic sandwich to be a true sandwich. You have a better argument that a hamburger is more like a "real sandwich" than a sub is. The structure of the sub, and specifically that it's NOT on two even slices of bread, makes it something different. It's a whole other animal based on what you can do with it and what people put into it vs. a traditional sandwich. Embrace variety.
  11. No, it's a sub. Maybe we can meet saying that they are all on branches of the same food tree, but they are each distinct enough to be their own entity.
  12. Son, we are into some deep philosophical [expletive] here; don't be breaking out definitions like this is the intro to a failing thesis statement.
  13. It's it's own thing. It's almost a hot sub due to the type of bread.
  14. What about a grilled cheese place? They exist, therefore a grilled cheese is not a sandwich. also, most burger joints I know also offer other sandwiches and the only "hot dog" place I would go to would have Italian beefs as well. And Italian beef is not a sandwich, and most burger joints I know offered incorrectly named "chicken sandwiches" as alternatives, but those are actually chicken burgers.
  15. Those are clearly sandwiches, so one would expect to get sandwiches. It's not only that something is singularly defined; it is if it is singularly defined to the point that if you made it like a sandwich it would be made incorrectly.
  16. Well, you're projecting your unreasonably broad sandwich determination. You go to a burger place you're not expecting sandwiches. You go to a hot dog stand you're not getting sandwiches. Even if one includes burritos, it's not like you can show up at a burrito place and get a ham and cheese burrito or a salami burrito or a BLT burrito or a tuna burrito. They are their own entities. Embrace variety.
  17. Right; if it was presented to you not on slices of bread it would be wrong. If you go in to a place that advertises itself as a sandwich shop do you expect to be able to get a hot dog or a burger?
  18. No bones allowed mcrib Is a McRib. McRib Sandwich Do you say "hamburger sandwich?"
  19. People like fun, David. People.
  20. lmao Gonna find a score stream at 1 pm to hear Dan's response Here's a sneak peek:
  21. Replace a ham and cheese with turkey and you have the same issue. Explain. You're still dealing with a sandwich either way; you've just shifted the filler. Replace a hot dog with something else in a hot dog bun and it's no longer a hot dog. The only distinction there is the unnecessary choice to refer to a hot dog specifically as a hot dog. If you ask for a hot dog and I say here's your sandwich it's still a hot dog, just like if you ask for a ham and cheese and I say here's your sandwich, it's still a ham and cheese. Have we gotten into the issue of whether you run out of bread but have hot dog buns? I've made peanut butter and jelly, ham and cheese, and all sorts of other things on a hot dog bun due to the hot dog vs hot dog bun packaging differential. Doesn't change what I'm eating. Of course it does. If you put peanut butter and jelly between two waffles and eat it it's not still a sandwich. You're just eating some bastard mutant creation out of desperation. Again, you ask for a hot dog and someone serves you a hot dog between two slices of bread it's going to seem wrong. You ask for a ham and cheese and it shows up stuffed in a hot dog bun it's going to register as wrong.
  22. HE HAS TWO, DAMMIT. http://blogimages.thescore.com/mlb/files/2013/12/USPW_983550-copy.jpg

  24. Replace a ham and cheese with turkey and you have the same issue. Explain. You're still dealing with a sandwich either way; you've just shifted the filler. Replace a hot dog with something else in a hot dog bun and it's no longer a hot dog.
  25. Combined with the Cubs just being absurd strikeout machines, so it's easy to be wary about such things. I can't wait until some more guys show up a la Soler who rock the whole "Cubs Way" of all-around player development, but I'm pretty sure if Bryant is not going to be that guy. He's going to be some kind of awesome freakmonster.
