Title: Controversal Topic
Post by: Ozymandias on 12 Sep 2008, 10:41
Hamburgers
Hot dogs
Or stem cell research?

Which would you ban first?

Hot dogs. Our Lady of Discord has been very clear on this matter.

Oh Jesus...I...I don't know.

Does hamburgers include cheeseburgers? I would have to assume it does.
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Ozymandias on 12 Sep 2008, 10:43
Yes, I refer here to the patty itself, I suppose. Without that, it's just cheese and bun.
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Thaes on 12 Sep 2008, 10:47
And hot dog refers to the sausage inside, instead of the bun?
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Ozymandias on 12 Sep 2008, 10:48
Generally.

I mean, I guess if you ban hot dogs, you don't have to ban brats.

So it's not such a great loss, I think I could handle that.

I'd have to say hamburgers. As much as I love them, not much beats stickin a plump juicy wiener down ones throat.

And no one can deny the deliciousness of the last one.
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Thaes on 12 Sep 2008, 10:51
Well, if the term "hot dog" does not contain the bun in it, this whole thingy just got a whole lot more complicated.

But I´d still go with banning them. I am more of a cat person, you see.

Hot Dogs.  Although I could also say hamburgers because they don't have cheese on top.  Bratwurst ist krieg.

Hot dogs. Mostly because I am allergic to them, anyways! Easy choice ftw.
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: IronOxide on 12 Sep 2008, 11:21
I would ban hot dogs because there is sausage, which is much better than a hot dog with the same convenience, but there is no good hamburger replacement.

Um.. Hot dogs.. I GUESS
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Verergoca on 12 Sep 2008, 14:06
Hmmm, well, personally, id say, down with hot dogs. Its just well, hamburgers you can get enormously creative with, same with stemcells, and well... Hot dogs are just that... Not-very-interesting blobs of flesh... (ALso, Bratwurst > hot dog)
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: nobo on 12 Sep 2008, 14:10
ban hot dogs. if people want something to stick in an oblong bun it should be a polish sausage anyway
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Vendetagainst on 12 Sep 2008, 14:15
I would say hot dog, except that chicago-style hot dogs are unbelievably good. Burgers are generally much superior to hot dogs, but then there's also CHILI dogs. I guess hot dogs.
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: fifthfiend on 12 Sep 2008, 14:53
99.999999% of hamburgers are made by people who don't have the first clue how to make them and if I were eating those I would have to say hamburgers can get lost.

As it happens I make the .0000001% of hamburgers that are actually any Goddamn good so as far as I am concerned hot dogs can go choke on it.

No I don't know what it is or how it would be choked on by a hot dog. They should go figure that out.

First hot dogs, then hamburgers, then stem cell research, then balloons and astronauts.

What about the other 0.0000009%?
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Dissy on 12 Sep 2008, 15:10
I'd have to ban Stem Cell Research for two different reasons.

First, as Troll said earlier, you cant eat them
And Secondly, and more importantly for political reasons.  Let me explain.

The motto of Special Forces is "Rape, Pillage, and Eat Dead Babies."  If we keep stemcell research legal, how can they eat dead babies?

i choose hot dogs. as long as we get to keep brats, i am okay with losing hot dogs.

Growing up my brother used to eat hot dogs like they were going out of style.  Which is fine ordinarily, but his preferred method of cooking said hot dogs was to burn them to a crisp in a frying pan full of butter.  The smell was horrendous and still haunts me to this day.  I would like to spare others from being assaulted by such odors so therefore, my vote goes with hot dogs.  (I still get to eat veggie hot dogs, though, right?)
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Alex C on 12 Sep 2008, 19:58
It's your loss though; there is some shockingly good kosher dogs floating around out there. Hot dog is really just a forlorn and abused termj, after all, and it can be applied to any number of home brewed or regional sausage+bun combinations that are quite worthy of eating yet fail to fall under other sausage categories. That said, I'm picking hot dogs as the first to go as long as we're apparently all comfortable with allowing other types of sausage.

Too many hamburgers can cause heart diseases.  But stem cell research is supposed to be able to destroy all diseases and make man like God.

As these two forces cancel out, I would have to ban hot dogs, as their effect on the human body is currently unknown.
Title: Re: Controversal Topic
Post by: Storm Rider on 13 Sep 2008, 01:15
We do, however, know that the process of making hot dogs is absolutely disgusting.

Therefore, they lose out to the noble hamburger and stem cell.

Ban hamburgers. I'm getting kinda bored with regular hamburgers and want the added thrill of eating black-market hamburgers.

Post by: calenlass on 13 Sep 2008, 14:32
Man I really like burgers, so I would say hotdogs. The only trouble is, occasionally I really like to scarf down a chilidog smothered in chili and cheese sauce, and you wouldn't want to ruin a good brat or sausage that way. DILEMMA

We had hot dogs today! Almost Chicago-style, except for the absence of a poppy seed bun.

The hot dogs themselves were broiled in a convection oven, and were topped with tomatoes, serrano peppers, pickle relish, pickles, mustard, and celery salt. Note that the reddish thing on the upper left is a thinly sliced tomato, not ketchup. The tomatoes were home-grown, by the way.

Why don't you just set fire to the cubs? It's not like it would be any huge loss.
