We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
I make a motion to table these issues until the mayonnaise vs. Miracle Whip conflict is resolved.
this is definitely a thing from a show. i just can't place it. simpsons maybe? mitch hedberg? i think it's mitch hedberg. still, i have to appreciate someone taking the time to write this out by hand.
ceesick, ur correct, this is taken from a (shall i say genius) Mitch Hedberg routine
R.I.P. Mitch
Isn't the 1st rule of the Sandwich Club not to talk about the Sandwich Club?
I'd love to join such a club: I have strong opinions on some of these topics/toppings. Example: Miracle Whip forever. I've never gotten food poisoning from Miracle Whip left out in the sun on a family picnic on the beach in Galveston in the shadow of an alien pod while wearing disco pants that used to be white but were stained red by my mom's blood after that lobster incident when my mom confronted Oscar about his snoring. (did I try too hard to tie things together? Probably)
(Mitch Hedberg was a funny guy)
I'd love to join this club, I vote for,either, yes, yum, yes, and 4 squares per sandwhich!
Sandwich Club? I want to go there.
I do hope the finder changed her mind about that burrito.
"I ate a club sandwich today. I don't even know how I get away with it... I'm not even a member!..." and so on...
RIP Mitch Hedberg
I'd join, but I'm already late for the Breakfast Club.
Yes, definitely, we need to discuss the Avocado Menace.
As for the frilly toothpicks: thumbs down!
I have seen victims who have been sandwich clubbed to death. It isn't pretty.

funny- yesterday I found a List (YES! Another LIST!) and one of the cryptic items was "pan sandwich." Half of the list was perfectly normal and easy to understand- the rest of the stuff was WTF.
Thanks for solving the mystery of this Find so early... Now I won't have to fret about it all day.
I think sprouts are out. Seems like they were used heavily on sandwiches in the 70's and 80's, but not at all after that. At least not in my neck of the woods.
@Jan-I vote for mayonnaise. Miracle Whip is too effing sweet for my taste. (This has always been a hot topic in my family)
I cast an "against" ballot for frilly toothpicks.
@I'm not only-I think that means a pannini (sp?) sandwich? (Or perhaps a "passive aggressive note" sandwich? :))
All of the comments so far are hilarious, esp. Geek's. (Ooops. I forgot, I'm not supposed to talk about it!)
Miracle Whip! *gag*
Avocado, yes. Miracle Whip is yuck.
I don't know who Mitch Hedberg is / was, but I'll need to find out now. This is funny stuff.
This made me so happy. I've been listening to Mitch a whole lot this weekend, because I'm with my best friends and they love him, too. "How do you feel about frilly toothpicks?" "I'M FOR 'EM!" Haha, definitely one of my favorite routines.
RIP!
DH and I saw Mitch at the DC Improv about 6 months before his death. We drove up (4 hours) and got a hotel just to see him. Still so glad we did, because we almost didn't take the effort. So, learn this lesson my children, spur of the moment trips for seemingly silly reasons are a must for life.
RIP Mitch.
Don't even act like you didn't find this find! You have the documentation right here!
I'm going to file this under "F," for Found.
Sorry. Waxing doughnut.
Oh yeah, avacado a DEFINITE yes! (It's delicious on anything, except perhaps a PB&J...)
We quote Mitch Hedburg quite often in my house. "Man, that guy really must like Tide."
I'm glad that someone is finally tackling the pressing issues of the day.
i grew up in Philadelphia where sandwiches are very nearly a religious issue. anywhere else i go no one seems to understand their full importance, no matter how hard i try to explain
(they're HOAGIES, dammit! not subs! and you don't make them right)
The Avocado Menace - classic! this is now the title of my first novel.
1. For. The frills keep the toothpicks glaringly obvious, so they're less likely to end up lodged in your windpipe. Little "Achtung!" flags would be cooler, but probably more expensive.
2. Chips. Hands down.
3. Allowed, but NEVER mandatory.
4. Avocados are okay, depending on the sandwich.
5. I don't care.
6. Eight pieces?! Are you fucking kidding me?! A sandwich never needs to be cut into more than two pieces. After that, it becomes hors d'oeuvres.
I would like to add to the debate the "fruit vs. no fruit" issue. Let's just say that when I put mustard on your ice cream, you can put strawberries in my chicken sandwich/wrap. Until then, that's one form of segregation I'm adamantly in favor of.
In closing, all I have to say is that Miracle Whip is a putrid form of glop.
Mmmm, Heidi... a keratin sandwich.... crrrunchyy!
Mitch Hedberg! How sad...
How ironic!
Finder - did you end up getting a sandwich instead of a burrito? I think I would feel obligated!
Mitch Hedberg was the BEST!!
"I ordered a chicken sandwich but I think the waitress misunderstood me because she said, "How would you like your eggs?" So I tried to answer her anyhow. I said "Incubated, and then raised, and then beheaded, and then plucked and then cut up then put onto a grill then put onto a bun. Shit, it's gonna take awhile. I don't have time, scrambled!"
Sad to say I didn't know that Mitch Hedburg was gone with the wind. RIP, indeed. Very funny guy.
A good one gone too soon.
{If only the good die young than how come Hamlet was 400 years when he was killed? Does that mean Hamlet wasn't a good guy?}
Four pieces or eight?
Four. I don't think I'm hungry enough for eight!
This has been a great week of finds.
Hmm..well, as long as the mayo vs MW is being voted on, big THUMBS DOWN on the MW.
Sprouts..love on everything
Avocado.. a must have
Chips vs potato salad...depends on who made the p.s. and what kind of chips are being offered. Kettle Chips will always get my vote.
Finally: toothpicks? leave 'em out all together.
waste of wood/plastic
Miracle Whip is only tolerable once every six months because it has such a distinct, rich (I'm not sure if that's quite the right word to describe it)taste. Also, Ledo's Pizza. Bleh, too sweet.
I like dipping pretzels in miracle whip. The tangy zip of miracle whip.
The first time I had a customer order a club sandwich I had to look it up on the Internet to find out how to make them.
I have to vote to keep the frilly toothpicks.
They're not mere decoration- they keep the damn sandwich from self destructing during and after the cutting process.
They're frilled for high visibility- naked toothpicks can be hard to see, and therefore more likely to be accidentally eaten. (or at least chomped on. Ow.)
Sprouts, yeah, sure okay. Avocado YES! Red onion yes! (how come they call them red onion and red cabbage when they're actually purple? huh?)
I am VERY interested in joining this club!!!
The Avocado Menace. I actually want to build a treehouse for such a club and make this our official raison d'etre (we'll call ourselves The Hellfire Club, maybe even create a Hellfire Club club sandwich). And no girls allowed. Unless they're bringing sandwiches. That's right: I went there.
this sounds like a mitch hedberg bit... r.i.p., mitch...
WHY OH WHY DID HE HAVE TO DIE?
"I had a parrot. It talked. But it couldn't say I'm hungry. So it died."
This is possibly the most amazing find. Other than the legal clauses in the book consisting of whales and metal hands.
this is a ripoff of Roz Chast's Graham Cracker Club!
This is definitely all Mitch. Miss him so much! "My apartment has a Koala bear infestation. It's the cutest infestation ever!"
this seems like a lame attempt at copying mitch headburg!
