guess it's now the best time to start posting here, star wars was good hope the next are better

Welcome! Curse of Monkey Island is the best game ever.

 

[codswallop]

I'm pretty sure we changed the quiz to "are you a cool person?", or similar.

 

[viciouskillersquirrel]

I ended up getting my in-laws an Apple TV. It was about twice the price of a Chromecast, but it meant not having to mess around with an app or the frightening technological engagement that entails. It works a treat.

Thing is, now that people on that side of the family know what I did, I'm being asked to set up other people with this newfangled "Net flick" thing.

 

[papertoonz]

the "quiz" was terrible and people only ever did it to be polite

now we only require a pledge of allegiance to crackdown 2, and then pick a hot button topic for the thread to argue about for the next couple pages. I suggest "christmas lunch foods" or "at what point is being drunk around family no longer socially acceptable".

never played crackdown but like open world super hero games, as for the 2 suggestions l like chicken and mash, and i don't drink alcohol

i know that feeling, i got a call from my nan once asking me for some help with her TV

 

[ClivePwned]

Did an escape room today (at Strike in the Wintergarden in brisbane), it was way better than the rather janky thing at West End. Had a great time.

Also had nitrogenie- Salty caramel popcorn. wonderful.

between that, Movenpick and Cowch, my ice cream needs at Southbank are taken care of.

 

[endlessflood]

i'll do a quiz if i have to, don't really mind either way

What do you call the food item in the photo below:

Entry to AusGAF is guaranteed, this is just so we know which side you'll fight on in the eventual and inevitable AusGAF civil war.

sausage sandwich

I like this guy

 

[HolyCheck]

Something wrong with most of you.

It's just a fucking sausage.

You're offered a sausage, you know it comes with bread

 

[jambo]

THIS is a sausage sandwich

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

THIS is a sausage sandwich

Who would eat that tho

We might as well roll around in our own shit in a cave somewhere if we're going to just abandon civilization like that

Sausage sandwiches are shit, just pointing out what they are.

I think you mean "sausage in bread." I'm sorry, the people in some states have spoken...

 

[HolyCheck]

Sausage in bread is fine if you're needing to describe it to a person. But you just say sausage. You don't say, let's go to bunnings and get a sausage in bread


Its

Let's go to bunnings and get a sausage

Or let's go to bunnings and hit up the sausage sizzle

 

[BananaArnie]

Anyone interested in Dungeon Worlding? I'm gonna ask here first, then the GB thread maybe.

Let's say 4 or 5 players.

well. ill take that as a no then.

uh oh

Something wrong with most of you.

It's just a fucking sausage.

ahhh syth. you make me laugh.

ive recently been in adelaide and those people over there said lets go get a sausage sizzle at bunnings
they called the sausage and a bread a sausage sizzle


my questions is: what do you ask for when you order one of these?

 

[endlessflood]

Sausage in bread is fine if you're needing to describe it to a person.

Actually, I just had an idea: sausage in bread vending machines. We could make a fortune! If anyone would like to be involved in the formation of Sausage in Brood Pty Ltd, please PM me ASAP. I assume the export opportunities would be limited though because no doubt they already exist in Japan.

 

[Jintor]

actually true.

but vending machine bread is terrible

 

[Jables Swan]

my questions is: what do you ask for when you order one of these?

Parmie or Parmy, chips only. Don't put the chips under the parmie either please.

 

[Cerity]

Team Sausage Sizzle here.

$1 for the snag, extra 50c ($1 in posh places) for a can, free onions.

Only way to live on the weekends and certain school days.

 

[HolyCheck]

Chicken or veal schnitzel

Then they ask you what topping, and you say parmigiana. (but really you say gravy or mushroom gravy if you're a bit fancy)

 

[codswallop]

But a schnitzel and parmigiana aren't even dishes from the same country...

You cray cray, Holy.

 

[reptilescorpio]

Chips go under the parma so the bottom doesn't sweat on the plate. They also soak up a minor amount of juices.

 

[Cruncho]

now we only require a pledge of allegiance to crackdown 2

You used to be cool, Kritz.

I was thinking that Adelaide couldn't really be that backward, so I looked up the menu of a few pubs and it definitely is.

 

[Fredescu]

Star Wars was good. I think it would have been even better if it wasn't Star Wars, but then I mightn't have watched it.

 

[FormallyMegadrive]

Oh shit. Never thought of that

 

[r1chard]

Mmm. Parma.

 

[Jables Swan]

Chips go under the parma so the bottom doesn't sweat on the plate. They also soak up a minor amount of juices.

But I don't like soggy chips

 

[legend166]

...people call it something other than a sausage sandwich?

 

[Lucian Cat]

But I don't like soggy chips

This. Keep your goddamn schnitzel off my crispy chips.

 

[senahorse]

...people call it something other than a sausage sandwich?

But if it's only one slice of bread it's not a sandwich.

 

[Fredescu]

But if it's only one slice of bread it's not a sandwich.

If two layers of bread is formed from one slice, it is a sandwich.

sandwich
play

noun | sand·wich | \ˈsan(d)-ˌwich, ˈsam-; dial ˈsaŋ-\

Simple Definition of sandwich

1

: two pieces of bread with something (such as meat, peanut butter, etc.) between them

Go argue with Merriam-Webster, break that one slice into two you and your argument has merit

 

[Fredescu]

Exactly, two pieces of bread, made from one slice. Whether the two pieces remain attached to each other or not is too minor a change for that to be the point where you decide if it's a sandwich or not. In the case of a sausage sandwich they should stay attached for filling retention. If you were making a Vegemite sandwich out of one slice of bread, you might or might not cut the slice in half, but whether you do or not does not significantly change what you're eating enough to give it a new name.

 

[senahorse]

But pieces imply two completely separate objects, in the case of one slice of bread folded over that is not the case, you sausage sandwich people are wrong, it's time to join the rest of us sane people and let it go

Also I coined a new term for example, a vegemite fold.

 

[Fredescu]

But pieces imply two completely separate objects

Come on, you of all people know about virtualisation! A "piece" is a logical descriptor that does not necessarily make implications about the underlying physical structure, much like the relationship between a virtual workload and it's physical host.

OK I will meet you halfway, a quantum sausage in bread is also a sausage sandwich.

 

[BananaArnie]

nope. add him to the list along with all the adelaidians
its a parmA

Chips go under the parma so the bottom doesn't sweat on the plate. They also soak up a minor amount of juices.

BUT YOU CANT CUT IT, AND THE CHIPS GO SOGGY AND GROSS!!
NO
BAD REPTILE

also while it is not a "sausage sandwhich" that 1 slice of bred thing is bs
case in point

EDIT: hello giant picture, i shall leave that giant to emphasize my point

 

[ThoseDeafMutes]

This. Keep your goddamn schnitzel off my crispy chips.

What about when it's with veg tho

This isn't proof this is just food crazies not following science, like how a tomato is called a vegetable in culinary circles

 

[Quasar]

Who would eat that tho

We might as well roll around in our own shit in a cave somewhere if we're going to just abandon civilization like that

I would. Thats how I tend to eat left over sausages.

That just reminds me of my aggravation in people calling subs sandwiches.

 

[Fredescu]

I have no idea what your point is in this case. Obviously not everything with multiple layers of bread is a sandwich. It's just that to some, the absence or presence of a hinge between two layers of bread is the key factor between sandwich and non-sandwich, which to me is completely arbitrary.

 

[Jintor]

well. ill take that as a no then.

what character are you running arnie?

its one slice of bread (not even) and still called a sandwhich. i agree with you

 

[Poimandres]

What's the deal with people getting bent out of shape over "best of" lists? WHO GIVES A SHIT?

Arguing over nomenclature of food stuffs, now that I can get behind!

If anyone needs me I'll be having a schooner. And when I say schooner, I mean a schooner not a pot/middy/handle/half-pint/ten you Adelaidian douche bags!

 

[Lucian Cat]

What about when it's with veg tho

What veg

 

[BananaArnie]

what character are you running arnie?

basically that blue guy from lotr
i was also going to say hes got a honkey donkey named flonkey but apparently the term honkey is a bit racist. even though donkeys honk

 

[Jintor]

honky as in "predisposed to making honks" is okay but it's way too similar to honky/honkey i.e. disparaging a white dude
