  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Cincinnati coney. Specifically the very picture from the Skyline Chili menu. Also available at Great American Ballpark, home of the Reds.
Ahhh, never been to Cincinnati or the skyline chili place and haven’t passed through Ohio in over 12+ years.

Ooooh what type of dog is that? ;)

And to order it without the hot dog, it's called...a chili cheese sandwich.

... Do I actually truly understand the question being asked? Do I know why the question is being asked?

My answer to these questions are no, and no.


And thus, my answer to the question at face value: Unsure.

I'm not really sure. A lot of initial answers pop up, but I guess it kind of depends on what you're actually asking. Do you want to know if I think the dictionary definition of a hot dog fits the dictionary definition of a sandwich? If so, yes, and there's some nuance to that, but ultimately I would say yes. But if you're asking me if I personally think a hot dog is in the same vein or realm as a sandwich, I would say no. Because I would never ask someone for a sandwich, receive a hot dog, and then say, "Thanks, this is exactly what I asked for.". I would be very confused on why they gave me a hot dog. And vice versa, I'd never give someone a hot dog if they asked for a sandwich, and if I did, I'd probably immediately preface it with, "Sorry, they didn't have any sandwiches, I hope a hot dog is okay.", and that fact alone makes me think it's obviously not a sandwich, because why would it cause confusion if it was indeed a sandwich? Maybe it's cultural, and maybe I'm wrong, but I think if the average person asked anyone for a sandwich and they were given a hot dog, that person would either think someone is very confused, pulling a prank, or out of their whole mind.

Or maybe... Neither answer answers the actual question, because that's not what's being asked? :tearsofjoy:
