So something I just read got me thinking... What do you call your sandwich? When you go to a deli, sandwich shop, bodega, or where-ever, what is the name of the sandwich you order on the long roll?

Oh God! This should get heated.
I like
steak and
cheese sammiches. Call them Subs.

Hoagie if it's cold and on a long roll
Sammich if it's on sandwich bread or a kaiser
Grinder if it's hot

I prefer not to give them names.
That just personalizes them ... then you get attached to them.
Makes it so much harder to cut them in half and consume them.
(I so had to concentrate on carefully wording this or no telling where it would have gone)

It's a hero sandwich. A grinder is something you have to pay for at a titty bar.

Tell me about it! When on vacation, I love to ask the wait staff what kind of pop they have and have them look at you with a blank stare and finally say, "HUH????"

I used to tease my ex-girlfriend's father about it. He took it well and would tease me about my Philly-isms. They're from Pittsburgh.

I call them subs but the rest of the idiots in this town call them heros... Superman is a hero, not my sub!

These morons also say they are standing "on line" rather than "in line".... It's like living in a foreign country around here...

They're hoagies. Anyone who refers to them otherwise is dumb. There is no need for further discussion.
