Why are sandwiches the perfect food?
I dunno, why?
No, I wasn’t… that wasn’t set-up for a joke, I was just musing.
Oh!
I mean, they are, aren’t they?
Kinda! But I mean it’s easy, they’re an entire meal in a portable package.
Yeah but so are MREs.
Yeah but those military meal packages aren’t the same at all.
They are in the sense of…
Yeah, being one package but still, sandwiches are superior in form.
Yeah, I guess so. But that’s it? They’re just all in one food so we love them?
Pretty much. Also infinitely adaptable. Meatloaf is meatloaf. A sandwich is anything you want to make it out of.
Meatloaf is awesome though.
Yeah, meatloaf rules. Still, that has nothing to do with anything.
Except that meatloaf is awesome.
Granted!
What about a meatloaf sandwich then?
Never had one?
What? No!
Oh man, my Grandmother used to make them for me, for lunch sometimes, when we would visit her. Some left over meatloaf, a good roll? Man, I want a meat loaf sandwich now!
I do, too!
Melina makes a good meatloaf, right?
She really does.
Let’s ask her to make some, and then get some rolls!
I love this plan! Can we finish our drinks first?
You would leave a drink abandoned?
Well, no.
Good man! Yeah let’s kill this round and then go find meatloaf fixings.
It’s kinda late to show up on someone’s doorstep with meat and ask for cooking.
Oh, hmmm. I suppose that is a bit strange. Tomorrow then?
I guess so, yeah. But then what do we do now?
I don’t follow.
Well, I mean, for food.
Ah! Yes! Well!
No idea, huh?
None.
Wings.
Wings are not meatloaf.
No, but we don’t have meatloaf, so we could have wings, instead.
How are wings a substitute for meatloaf?
They aren’t! I’m just suggesting wings.
Ohhhh.
Right. So, wings?
Yeah! Spicy wings! Spicy spicy wings!
Can’t make a sandwich out of wings.
Not unless you debone them.
But then they aren’t wings.
Point. They’re just meat.
Right. Wings are the anti-sandwich!
Ohhh, that’s fancy.
Isn’t it? We should eat some in praise of their new status.
And then get meatloaf tomorrow to apologize to the sandwiches?
Or just, you know, just to have meatloaf.
Fair.

Oh man! You. Got. To. Stop. Writing. About. Food! Now I’m hungry as hell…
I have a hypothesis: You are in reality an assassin, sent here from the future to kill me! Your chosen method of killing? Death by overeating. Or from laughing to hard. Funny stuff man!

You must be careful, or the sandwich will make you it’s bitch!
