    I always enjoy it when I post a silly joke and the first two people misunderstand it, and then the rest of humanity sees a negative number, so they don’t even give it the benefit of the doubt anymore and just toss their -1 into there for good measure.

    Like, it’s sad that the post went to waste, but I don’t care how far into the negative it is. At that point, a large negative number just amuses me.

    How do you even cut a sandwich horizontally?? The slices of bread are alreadly separated from each other! On what reference do they consider the cutting plane?

      A horizontal cut is pretty easy. Usually it’s easier than the vertical cut. Sliding the knife between the meat and the liquidy toppings gets you a nice, smooth path through. Then just lift the cut portion away from the bottom portion, and enjoy your sandwich.*

      *One may have to fold the sandwich like you do a piece of bread around a hot dog, but don’t worry, it’s just part of the process.

      I can definitely see why OP would stand by their statement about people who cut sandwiches horizontally.

      Cutting a Sando corner to corner is considered diagonal. Cutting across the middle is considered horizontal in this context.

      One creates two triangles, one creates two rectangles. This is from.a top down perspective.

      It’s not very hard to understand when you see it

        Cutting a sandwich ‘along the middle’ is still considered a vertical cut, just along a different plane. Same as cutting corner to corner. Vertical but on a plane that isn’t orthogonal to the major XYZ axes.

        People who cut crusts off toast are so weird. Some bread actually has crusts that are kind of hard, I can see why someone might want to cut it off (even though I think the crust is usually the best part). But toast? maybe useful for the visual presentation, but even then I’d just eat the crust separately.

      I was not expecting to get into pineapple pizza so much as an adult. First of all, there aren’t many pizzas I’d turn down anyway. But pineapple is fucking amazing. The sweetness and acidity marries perfectly with rich, melty cheese, just like marinara does. And I beg to differ on the garlic: I like a sauce that bites back.

        I experimented heavily with pineapple pizza until I found out I had an extreme allergy to gluten. The sauce loves some garlic but, if you really want garlic, just toss some diced garlic on top of the pizza with a drizzle of olive oil before you bake. It comes out perfect at 550 for 5-6 minutes on a pizza stone or 450 for 8-10? (I can’t remember anymore, I shifted to the former). Buuuuut, that’s how I learned that the two flavors clash when they’re too strong. A piece of pineapple with an adjacent medium to medium-well garlic is not a pleasant combo.

        Also how I found out that Italian small leaf basil and pineapple is literally a perfect combo, always. I’m making a basil pineapple salad tomorrow!

            Depends on the sandwich orientation when cutting. If you lay the sandwich side to side then cutting across the short length is vertical. Laying the sandwich so it’s point away from you would make that cut horizontal.
