FOOTLONG

[paracarl44]

I hear that the footlongs at subway are actually only 11" :O

^Someone else notices that you are being shorted by one inch.^

 

[milagros317]

They are long enough to provide a good meal. There is no need to be obsessed with its exact length. 😀

But after every eleven orders, you are shorted an ENTIRE shorted sammich, damnich.......😉

^Now that is another way of thinking.^

Let's see how much longer people can harangue Mil over ignorantly, impatiently being cheated an ENTIRE INCH of his sub, yet he continues in his blissful naïveté. *Reminded of Jacob stealing Esau's birthright, all for a measly bowl of stew!*
So, mil, are you going to be like Esau and sell your rightful additional inch (advertising isn't subjective; should be based on FACTUAL TRUTHS! Empirical evidence, people!), or like Israel, and demand what you want? 😛

 

[milagros317]

I will continue to eat those delicious 11-inch subs and enjoy their low price, too. 😀

But, can you agree that they're not Footlongs then, and so the advertising as such is false?

Certainly the advertising is false, as is the advertising of almost every fast food joint on earth. 😀

A foot long should be a foot long.

When they say "quarter pounder," was it really quarter pounds in weight? 😀

..........

Anyway, I could only consume 1/2 of footlongs or else I'd vomit. 🙁

I will take the half that you don't consume.

Sure! Why not?

 

[milagros317]

Sure! Why not?

Thank you! 😀

I paid over $7.00 including taxes for a sub yesterday, but I did not measure to see if it was a foot long.

You should stick to the SUB of the day which should be under $7. 😀

^I usually order the Italian sub, but I did not measure it to see if it was exactly a foot long.^

You are making progress in not being so picky about the exact length. 😀

^Maybe I should measure the remaining pieces to see if they are 6 inches in length.^

Remaining pieces? You didn't eat the whole thing all at once? 😱

^I'm not as young as I used to be so I don't have a big appetite.^

 

[milagros317]

That is very sad, my friend. 🙁

I measured a Subway sub I bought this week and it was 12 inches, a FOOTLONG.

Lucky you to get a full sized sandwich. 😀

 

[paracarl44]

I intend to by a sub from Subway, so I need to check if it is a foot long.

 

[milagros317]

Last Thursday I had an Italian combo footlong and I didn't measure it. 😀

Haven't had hotdogs for a long while... 🙁
