You have 10 seconds to explain why a hotdog isn't a sandwich.

Because the National Hot Dog Council (real thing, look it up) has declared that a hot dog is not a sandwich, that's why.

You mean being able to distinguish between a sandwich and a roll? Do you also refer to motorbikes as cars and greentext anybody who seeks to retain clear meaning in that aspect of language?

>arbitrary
is every definition 'arbitrary' to you? Does sorting things tickle your autism?

>> No.7613721

The meat is tubular.

Sandwiches have flat toppings, because stacking the toppings is what defines of a sandwich.

You cannot stack on top of a tube. You can only pile toppings on top.

Arbitrariness is a defining characteristic of language with languages having systemic regularities regarding certain arbitrary relationships between sound and meaning: http://rstb.royalsocietypublishing.org/content/369/1651/20130299

As such, the relationship between any sound set and the definition of that sound set in a given language is arbitrary outside of onomatopoeia (which still vary between languages given the arbitrariness of sound/meaning connections).

In any case, the definition of a sandwich as a food package situated between two 'independent' slices of bread, as contrasted to a food package situated within a piece of bread that has been subdivided, is fucking dumb. If slices of bread come from the same loaf they are subdivided from the same, chronologically earlier, piece of bread.

A sandwich is stuff with bread around it. Try asking a girl, or guy, out on a date. You need some distraction.

Simple; when you slice a weenie in half longways, then slice one of those in half, apply chili to a slice of bread, lay the slices diagonally atop it, spread mustard and relish to another slice of bread, and put it on the chili/weenie slice, you call it "a hotdog sandwich".

Also, if someone asks if you want a sammich, and then they bring you a hotdog instead, your instinctual reaction is "wtf, this isn't a sammich".

First sentence unnecessary. Second sentence unnecessary. Third sentence more words than necessary to repeat what you've already said. Fourth and fifth sentences comprise an utterly ridiculous argument. Final two sentences are delicious irony.

Sure you can pile toppings on a hotdog. People stack on chili, onions, relish, etc. It's no less tubular than a pickle. Also, what does it matter if it isn't sliced like deli meat? You don't slice peanut butter and jelly. It's whatever goes between bread.

Are tacos sandwiches now too? Tortillas are a form of bread.

Is a hamburger a sandwich?
I guess it's only a sandwich if you use deli meat (as opposed to other meat, you can have sandwiches without meat.)
Like, a sandwich isn't supposed to be dinner, is lunch or an appetizer.

When does bread stop being bread and become a chip or cracker?

>> No.7613911

>>7613907
A chip or cracker is a type of bread, prepared in a certain way. They aren't different from bread, it' like a bread subgroup.

Hot dogs are not sandwiches and cereal is not soup. No reasoning necessary.

>> No.7613923

Easy, if you ripped the bun in half and turned it into two slices of bread and put the hotdog sandwiched in between them it would be a fucking sandwich you ignorant bitch.

Technically, but not colloquially.

What, you thought language had to abide by rules other than whatever consensus is reached by the native speakers?
