As a typical middle child I must pipe up for the open-face sandwich as pleasing to both poles of the Major-Constant continuum.

So let me guess... you had a contest in the office to see who could write the best Charles Mudede post and Paul won? That last paragraph was pure Chuck.

Also, a gentleman or a lady fights with a cutlass or, if need arises, a musket. Hurling grenades with bare hands is frankly barbaric. Such must have been the thought of His Lordship the Earl of Sandwich, who was never known to have thrown a grenade.

@2, Right!? Having failed to note the author, when I got to the bit about dogs vs humans I totally assumed it was a Mudede post.

Paul, the commanding officer was a major general, not a major, and would be addressed as General Cowan. Substantial, nay, huge difference.

We're sure the original source of this story isn't The Onion?

It wasn't until 1969 that women could even sit at a bar in Washington State. They also could not walk around with a drink, they had to remain seated at a table when consuming spirits and the drink had to be ordered by a man. I put the whole story of what I know about the above here:

No man wearing that hat gets to tell me what a gentleman does or does not do.

Hear, hear, Paul Constant!

@3: And what leaves one hand free to wield a cutlass? A SANDWICH.

Charles clearly hacked Paul's account & did a post.

Hey! Did you know that 2012 was the 250th Anniversary of the Invention of the Sandwich! It was! The Earl of Sandwich is one of my personal gyros.

1. Tatstrami
2. Paseo Cuban Pork
3. Paseo Carribean Roast
4. Saigon Deli Bahn Mi BBQ Pork
5. Whatever they tell you to buy on the day you come into Salumi

The lesson is now over.

I say, old bean, none of these chappies are wearing plus-fours! What's that all about, then?

Just trust the Torygraph to wage the rearguard battles of half a century ago.

I thought it was Mudede at first too. Maybe it's a welcome sign that Charles is rubbing off on the younger Turks in the house.

What a fop!

A gentleman eats a roll with his hands. One piece at a time, torn by hand, and not cut with a knife. Each bite is buttered individually. It's a Christian tradition to tear bread by hand. An Oxbridge man would know this. Why, the good Major General is practically accusing the Holy Saviour of being barbaric. I should hope the Queen will soon be having a chat with him.

That person holding the sandwich certainly has a nice smile.

Please wait...
