Did anyone [else] make a wish, right before ending up here?

[There's a muted, deadened quality to this transmission - someone is trying very hard not to think about. Well. Just about anything!]

You're right, but when you think of sandwich, it's usually the same kind of thing.

[ The clock ticks closer... ]

[loopsiedaisy]

Is it...?

I mean, you can make a croque monsieur, or you can make a strawberries-and-cream sandwich like in Ka Bue. [And those are really different! One's basically a dessert!]

So isn't it just if you put stuff between bread?

[dunchies]

...

[ He hadn't considered the possibility of dessert sandwiches. ]

But do we go by structure or by taste, then? If we go by the bread-filling-bread format definition, then they'd still all be sandwiches. If we go by taste, then a croissant is a croissant no matter the shape, right?

[loopsiedaisy]

They're all called sandwiches... so I think it's structure?

[And that means pain au chocolats aren't croissants and croissants are still bad. They rest their case.]

[dunchies]

But if we go by structure, why aren’t meat buns considered sandwiches, too? It’s still bread-filling-bread... technically!

[ Croissants aren't even on his mind anymore. ]

[loopsiedaisy]

Maybe they count as one piece of bread, but with a hole in the middle...?

So if you sliced the bun part in two halves then it would become a sandwich?

[dunchies]

I suppose. I think it might defeat the purpose of starting as a meat bun, though. [ Oh wait, the original issue at hand came back to him. ]

... So if we cut a croissant in half and put some stuff in-between, would you think of it as a sandwich [ Good! ] or a croissant [ Bad! ]?

[loopsiedaisy]

It would be a sandwich that has a croissant in it. Or around it. [As a component, anyway!]

[Still bad!! Use another bread!]

[dunchies]

... Oh. I guess you can’t change what you don’t like that easy, huh? It’ll just taste the same. [ He tried. He really did. ] Sorry, Siffrin.

[loopsiedaisy]

Don't worry about it. It's not your fault they're awful.
