Reported.

To be clear, my reaction was shock and appall, not wow. I’m definitely horrified

Dude...you will never get laid here...ever

Let me explain how controversial opinions work

Tacos // hot dogs

Components:

Tortilla - flat bread // sausage bun - bread

Carne (literally meat) // sausage - meat

Salsa (literally sauce) // ketchup, mustard (sauce)

A hot dog already has the sausage stuffed in the buns.

Sure there are similarities, no one is arguing otherwise. But you called a Taco a "bastardized hot dog" which is...a take. Lol. Plus while actual dates can only be speculated it's theorized that tacos came first.

But we can agree that both are delicious. That's the important thing here.

I understand the need to reply and inject knowledge, but, from the US perspective, hot dogs were being sold around 1860s Source , Tacos about 40 years later. Source.

From European and Mexican perspectives, European sources date sausages earlier than tacos by 2 centuries, but yeah there is no written history of tacos.

I didn’t say anything about how they taste. Bastardized doesn’t mean that one is less tasty than the other.

Anyway. It’s an opinion, shouldn’t have to be based on facts. Source

And I don’t think I need to agree on anything you say. I can respect your opinion, but it’s not the same as agreeing.

Open sandwiches aren't a thing. If they're open (or topless, if you will), they're not sandwiches. If they're sandwiches, they're not open.

Here’s several:

The band Boston is overrated. They had one good album and half of its success was due to the cover design. It’s overproduced.

If you receive a message from someone, you should answer it, unless the message was asking you not to contact them again. This is especially lacking on personals sites, where people just stop responding or never return a message. Men and women alike are guilty of it.

Everyone has some delusion about themself. They might believe they are better looking than they are, or smarter than they are, or exaggerate some facet of their lives. If we are lucky we figure out what that delusion is and reset to reality.

People on the autism spectrum, especially high performing to the extent you’d never suspect them, probably have a higher chance of anxiety and depression than the average person.

Nobody is “normal.” “Normal” is an artificial societal construct that is an impossible standard for everyone to meet.

I don't agree, but I love both.

That said, I'd take a good bratwurst or kielbasa over a hot dog any day.

And I may just have a chorizo taco for lunch now to celebrate both sausage and tacos.

Then stop calling me a sandwich every time you message me.

No no, I said 'sad bitch'. Close!

Well. That escalated quickly.

I actually felt quite bad, but it scanned!
Sorry

A sandwich is always topless when being constructed. An open sandwich is simply one that has all the constituent parts, but not closed.

If a tree falls in the forest and there is no one to hear it, there is still sound.

 

[RjThoughts]

Open-faced sandwiches, in which both slices of bread are covered in leftover meat and gravy, are still sandwiches. You CAN combine them to make a traditional sandwich, but it would be messy!

Pizza is an open faced sandwich.

Now we debate pineapple on sandwiches?

A hamburger is a sandwich, no? They were often referred to as hamburger sandwiches.

So I submit to you the Red Robin Banzai Burger.

Someone cannot obligate me to speak to them just because they spoke to me and vice versa. Just because a message was sent, it doesn’t deserve a reply, it has to earn one. If I send a message to someone here and they think I’m an asshole, there is zero requirement to message back. That’s bully behavior to demand a response.

No one owes anything to anyone. If someone chooses to write someone, that's on them. Much like a phone call. Just because my phone rings, doesn't mean I'm obligated to answer. Would it be good manners? Maybe. But, we're not entitled to anyone's time just because we show up in their space.

Also, many many people here aren’t here looking to hookup with anyone. The fact that there are Personals here doesn’t mean everyone is here for Personals. And just because someone has a Personal Ad here doesn’t obligate them to respond to anyone.
