I couldn't get over the vest-no-shirt look. Pantsless was fine though.

Yikes, that's the Extreme Xenophile Association, Michigan Satellite. They reeeaaallly love aliens. I.C.H.I.G.

Oh, that's the Southeastern Arizona Turtle and Ungulate Rescue. Good organization. G.U.L.A.T.

!!! That's Iris! If she was in my closet I might be tempted to keep her around, to be honest. Why you have all those gazelle hooves in your closet I'm not sure.

I happen to be the Regional Head of Optical Network Design, so that one was easy. A.D.O.F.O.

Also, hamburgers are without question sandwiches.

Phantom for fathom? Yikes.

Good point! There aren't many people who would think of a hot dog and call it a sandwich. Of course, there aren't a lot of folks who would say 'rectangle' when they mean 'square', either, but that doesn't make it inaccurate.

Reducing my restaurant patronage has been the main cause of my weight loss. I was eating out about a dozen times a week, now I try to keep it under two times a week. Saving a lot of money, too.

The hot dog itself is the sausage, but people commonly refer to the hot dog and bun together as a hot dog. The whole thing is a fun semantic question anyway, so I'm surprised nobody brought this up until now!

Tortillas are a specific type of unleavened bread.

Like. I can cook and my roommate can bake. I think we should team up and have burrito pie for dinner and pie burritos for dessert.

A pie burrito, on the other hand, would have sweet pie filling wrapped burrito-style in pastry and baked. That would be amazing.

I couldn't find a picture of what I imagined a burrito pie would be. Like a regular meat pie but with traditional burrito fillings. I sort of want to make one now.

TBH despite my otherwise strong opinions in this matter, I can't figure out the taco. I don't consider it a sandwich but I'm not entirely sure why. I think it's because of the tortilla, but a tortilla is definitely a type of bread, so I'm not sure why I see a distinction there.

I don't follow that leap. I'm saying that pies, and burritos, and wraps have a similar trait, but they are different in other ways. You might be able to convince me that burritos are a subset of wrap, though.

No, I'm saying that pies, wraps, and burritos contain their fillings on all sides. Some pies and wraps have an open side, but I don't consider them sandwiches, either, for separate reasons. The pie with no top crust isn't a sandwich because the open side is one of the two big sides; the wrap isn't a sandwich because it…

A hot dog in a bun is a sandwich. I think the main problem people have with calling a hot dog a sandwich is the incompleteness of the bun's slice. In my opinion, that's irrelevant. Not many people would argue that a sub sandwich isn't a sandwich despite its connective hinge of bread on one side. Also common is a sandwich…
