Totes delish.

I think that if wifey ever heard or saw me refer to her as such she'd cut my nuts off.

Please can we ban using the term "sammich". It's a goddamned sandwich. It's only one more letter to type.

Having done some research before impetuously posting, I retract the above, as I now know that sandwich and sammich are not simply interchangeable.

I see that my (sub)urban patois excites and frightens you, old man.

On a different note, I'm trying to understand the physics involved in that my stock pot can be barely simmering, but the handles are hot enough to give 4th degree burns. Every. loving. Time.

Heat density, transfer of engergy, etc. You know this.



I got my haircut again yesterday afternoon. It's not a special occasion - I go every month. But it made me think I'm glad there is still such a thing as a barbershop with old country music on the am radio, playboys and cattle raising magazines in the rack, and a guy who not only does a good shave with a straight razor (not as a hipster thing but because he's been barbering that way for 50 years) but where you only get the kind of haircut that the barber is going to give you, and if you ask for anything different the barber tells you no because if he complies with your request he knows that your woman will call him up and give him hell about it.

Is "sammich" just a stupid slang term for a well-constructed sandwich?

If so, that's retarded.

It actually comes from the German Hamburgensammichessen though, which predates the word "sandwich".

Is that named after the famous Count von Hamburgensammichessen? That apocryphal story about the nobleman who was hungry while gambling: He was too stupid to pronounce words properly, so his servants just ladled nourishing gruel into his drooling maw.

A butty is a very specific type of sandwich and is not even in the same league as "sammich".

As for "sarnie", I think it sounds stupid, but for some reason it doesn't strike me as quite so stupid sounding as "sammie".

Chips, not French fries. Not just a quibble about English vs. American, but because they are different things.

And chip butties are really delicious.

The word goes back at least to the sitcom "Martin" wherein Brotherman would appear through Martin Lawrence's window at inopportune times looking for a "sammich".

I don't know where 'wifey', or worse, 'The Wifey' came from, but jesus loving christ. my best guess is immature grown men who find the topic of love and marriage uncomfortable to discuss in writing or something. but it drives me nuts.

sammich for the same reason more or less. I take my sandwiches seriously, and 'sammich' is just a faux-cutesy neckbearded socially awkward immature way of trivializing something that is serious goddamn business.
