Birb Katter posted:If you cut a sandwich in half does it cease to be a sandwich? Folding a slice of bread is the same. Depends how you're cutting, are you taking the entire top piece of bread off? A sandwich requires two or more pieces of bread to be a sandwich. If you folded a slice of bread and then cut it down the middle giving you two half slices that would also be a sandwich.

Birb Katter posted:If you cut a sandwich in half does it cease to be a sandwich? Folding a slice of bread is the same. The ratio of bread to filling is important. A sausage in bread has just enough bread to hold the sausage, onion and sauce allowing the sausage to dominate. A sausage sandwich with two slices of bread buries the flavour of the snag and bogs you down with unnecessary roughage for the rest of the afternoon. Calling them both a sausage sandwich loses that distinction, which is OK if food is just something you stuff into your face in between inciting riots against browns and watching boofheads with no necks line up and run into each other a hundred times in an afternoon for no apparent reason. Birb Katter posted:Is a club sandwich really 1.5 sandwiches because it has 3 slices of bread? No, it's just one club sandwich. Which is all small bananas compared to calling a potato cake a "scallop". When you're illiterate enough to start confusing animal and vegetable, it's time to give up. A scallop is a mollusc. It's seafood. A potato is the tuber of the Solanum tuberosum plant, which apart from being delicious when fried into cakes, can serve as an improvised battery or even as an Immigration Minister if you're really desperate.

You are wrong. The French 'escalope', meaning 'shell' and from which we get the name of the bivalve mollusc, is also commonly used to refer to slices of meat roughly the shape and thickness of a potato cake. It is not that rare, and was previously commonplace in England, to refer to those cuts of meat as 'scallops'. The term 'potato scallop' is a perfectly reasonable extension of that semantic mode that is just incidentally uniquely Australian.

Then there are scalloped potatoes, which is a way to talk about potatoes au gratin that doesn't rely on using the language of the filthy French.

When you compare it to the Abbott years when Briggs and Dutton probably would've been promoted and the sex discrimination commissioner would've been replaced by Chris Berg, this seems so harmless by comparison. Maybe Abbott was part of the LNP long game to make lovely neocon policy and behaviour seem less like getting your dick slammed in a door.

Maybe it's just easier to talk sausage than about the rape of a 6 year old. Last time that linguistics things showed up in the thread lead to me spending hours pulling the piss out of my New South Welshman partner. "Put on my swimmers to eat a sausage sandwich at Could-gee beach". He maintains that WA's sound retarded saying Coogee the correct way though.

It's one thing to have a very divisive policy endorsed by the two major paries. However, its very much a different cat to see it applied with complete incompetence. As a mainly conservative voter (and with no empirical research) my comment to you is - getting "get angry" about the later would appeal to more people I know than the former. Which is part of the outcome you want and would even be supported by scum like me. So, unless your just being flippant - don't be a quitter.
