    Speaking of comedy and UHX connections, big ups to Dear Nora for having a song at the end of the new Todd Barry special.

    oh yeah! that's cool

    To be fair, his understanding of the sandwich is next level.

    I flipped out when I heard that song!

    I also enjoyed all the DRY SODA jokes.

    I'd say that live crab and the fruit plate aren't sandwiches. Everything else? Maybe.

    This is cool

    When did we start arguing about sandwiches? I found a mention on this board where Steve says in 2011:

    "i'm opening a can of worms cause our own KmikeyM has hosted this debate often in the past few years and its proven to be fairly contentious!"

    Any ideas?

    Feels like it was definitely pre 2011, but I'm not sure. When did we switch to Vanilla? I think it was after that point. Was it a talk at UrHo Talks?

    I found a lot of sandwich related emails in my archives that seemed to start in about 2004, but I think that was more exploration and less questioning? 2009 feels right, I know I was PRETTY ANNOYING with instigating that for a long time. :)

    I know that the first time I heard of it was in 2009. We were at Juniors--me, Gary, Mike, Steve, and Adam. We were starting to plan our wedding, and Mike totally derailed it into this crazy sandwich thing that turned into a huge yelling match. That was the first I heard it, but it also seemed like something that even at that point had already been around for awhile--because Steve was like "oh boy, here we go again," basically.
  • YoursTrulyYoursTruly
    Guess that could've been 2008, even! I don't remember what month I was in Portland doing that preliminary wedding planning. Could've been late 2008.

    And actually I don't think Gary was there

    Stanley Kubrik faked the sandwich debate - it never really happened. See the shadows there?

    good call

    UH OH

    calzone is a classic maneuver when you teach the sandwich exercise to college freshmen
  • swamp_knobbler_mahanswamp_knobbler_mahan
    Of course an open-faced sandwich is a sandwich IT'S IN THE NAME

    Cool survey though.
  • YoursTrulyYoursTruly
    open-faced sandwich defies EVERY definition of sandwich that anyone can come up with though, so it's a real philosophical/semantical humdinger
