My Sandwich Challenge

[durangodawood]

Apparently you are misunderstanding what I said. The sum of the sandwich, and that which is less than the sandwich, is still greater than the sandwich.

Sounds like some game playing going on when you substitute in a loaded word like "create" when you really mean you just "made a sandwich" in the normally way everyone understands "made a sandwich".

Semantics.

So did I make the universe with that act?

By making a sandwich.... no.

Is there some controversy about this?

 

[durangodawood]

If this is about coming up with your own candy bar recipe, then "create" is the right word.

 

[durangodawood]

Semantics....

...is the essence of communication. Using words with an understood shared meaning.

Thank you for sharing your opinion.

It seems to be so.

That's why I provided an excerpt from a thesaurus.

Glad I could help.

Yes giving someone a variety of senses you might mean for a word rather than just telling them really "helps".

Mushy thinking has its place. But not here.

This looks like a complaint.

Did you vote?

Yes its a complaint.

I voted no based on my guess about what you meant.

I should have known better after the thesaurus thing.

Youre interested more in playing games than in discussion.

Yep, but you have to vote before you can see the results. I did that on purpose.
