Self Evaluation... Am I a Snob?

[rest have risen above me]

Being at an age where I'm allowed a crisis every so often I am going through a patch of self evaluation at the moment.
Today I just made myself a couple of really well made Egg Butties.. 4 slices of bread 2 eggs and a bottle of Tomato sauce. Then I took a knife and cut the butties as is normal.
I CUT THEM CORNER TO CORNER????
What is going on in my life?
Help please? Is it OK or am I a snob? Should I place myself in an institution? I need some back up and confirmation here?
And do sandwiches cut corner to corner taste better?

[Shugster]

If you cut them in to Two then that is acceptable... If you cut them in to Four then you are a upper class Lord Snooty wannabe!
:PDT_Xtremez_30:

Which was it?

[AllWoman]

Question is...........did you cut them in half or quarters? And did you leave the crusts on?:PDT_Xtremez_14:

Well, if he cut them in 4 and cut the crusts off he is not only a snob but probably has gay tendencies too!!:PDT_Xtremez_30:

[BJW]

Why the fukc are you cutting it at all, I assume you have got 2 hands and a gob full of teeth - that's all you need:PDT_Xtremez_14:

Oi.. that's a bit harsh...
There was no mention of removing the crusts...Good grief you people take it too far.....lol and 4 is for kids....

Anyway it was a Kingsmill Thick sliced Gold loaf and it was bought at Waitrose.

[Martin Blank]

Plus why the fek was it only an egg butty why not the full tripple layer with bacon and sausage as well.
One cut is acceptable in any direction but not two :PDT_Xtremez_30:

edit:
Waitrose & Kingsmill!!!!!
I take it back you're a not only a fekking snob you've got far to much money.

You missed out the fine slices of cucumber.................:PDT_Xtremez_31:

[RAF Bird]

The problem that I can see here is that you need to man up!! There is room for 2 eggs per 2 slices of bread. It is fine to cut it in half however you should put salad cream on it not tomato sauce!!! Much better. :PDT_Xtremez_15:

[True Blue Jack]

Salad cream!!?! How very dare you!!

The deciding factor has to be whether or not the yolks were runny. If there was no chance of a yellow mess down the front of your shirt then you are a snob.

I think you've spelled that wrong - it starts with a K in my dictionary

[gemarriott]

I have relented after an impassioned appeal to my conscience and the fact I have had it pointed out to me I myself have discussed sh1t sarnies several times you can discuss sh1t sandwiches here in the playground.

See those of you who doubted we mods are human after all:PDT_Xtremez_35:

What are you on about cucumber sandwiches shouldn't be eaten until 4pm with some earl grey tea.

Now for the real reason for starting this thread.
Does a butty taste better if it cut corner to corner?

[Tashy_Man]

Does a butty taste better if it cut corner to corner?

I see no real reason why it would, afterall can your tastebuds and stomach tell the difference once masticated ?

However it is I believe the first step to becomming a cnut or otherwise known as an Orificer......perhaps TBJ can answer for us ?

Crack on....................:PDT_Xtremez_09:

God knows. I think that lesson comes in Term 3, after we learn the correct placing of knives and forks. :PDT_Xtremez_15:

earl grey is fine- as long as it is served black (Milk! milk! in earl grey?!? only plebians and uncoth people do that) and with a nice slice of lemon

buttys shouldn't be cut at all- eat them whole!!!

I always use my hands to hold the said knife and fork......feck me, now I know why some of the Jengos have been prats.

As a general rule:

Cold butty; corner to corner.
Hot butty; don't cut.
Best butty; Chilli con Carne and thick cut chips (fried in beef dripping).

[planesailing]

My only issue is with tomatoe sauce on an egg sandwich, oh dear! you philistine and and despoiler of egg banjoes, what are you thinking of!

A little salt and a modicom of pepper is all thats needed, presentation is important, cutting from corner to corner is OK but a little GAY, if that suits you, fine, but across the middle is more, how can I say, normal, so if your normal and not GAY its how it should be done! :PDT_Xtremez_15:

[POB]

A real egg banjo is a fried egg, still runny in the middle, between two slices of white bread. The inside surfaces of the bread should be smeared with some kind of grease, (compo margarine for the best flavour) the external surfaces of the bread should be smeared in a little diesel fuel, avtur or gun oil. They should be served by a grumy cnut of a cook, with dubious stains down the front of his clothes. To enjoy them properly you should be wearing NBC rig. For added authenticity, the "Gas, Gas, Gas!" call should go out when you have about two mouthfuls left, forcing you to put all of the remaining banjo into your gob as you don your face welly desperately trying to swallow the banjo, blow out shouting "Gas, Gas, Gas!" and pull your hood up.

Anything else is just a sandwich, and luxury.

Any addition simply turns it into sandwich.

A quote from July 2007. FFS. ANYTHING that is not a REAL egg banjo is a sandwich, and you can do what you want with it...Makes you a bit gay, and of questionable parenthood...But you can still cut it/cover it in tomato whatever. Up to you. But please stop confusing a sandwich with an egg banjo. The two are different and mutually exclusive.

[rest have risen above me]

So the consensus is corner to corner is questionable/snobby..

mmm Why then is every pre pack butty cut corner to corner even Aldi/Lidl ones which must be the chavviest places on earth (I only go to Waitrose and wouldn't know).
I have never seen a straight cut butty pre packed..I feel a petition or at least a strongly worded letter to the Daily Mail patronising the poorer elements of society as pre pack butties are a waste as surely if you want a butty the au-pair will make it.

[AllWoman]

You need to go to Greggs all their pre-packed sarnies are cut straight!:PDT_Xtremez_28:

Unfortunately there is no McGreggs up here but there I will check McPhails to see if they cut their sandwiches straight.

Isn't Greggs that one where the chavs hang around outside, near the level crossing across from Poundstretcher and next to Farm Foods?

Who are you calling uncouth young lady ? :PDT_Xtremez_15:
THE only tea I drink, with a splash of milk ::P:

However your correct about the butty's. If you cut them your a snob !

Butty's should be eaten whole, or folded double if your in a hurry :PDT_Xtremez_30:

[rest have risen above me]

Last night I had another bout of self doubt about my snobbishness which was due to my wife watching I'm a celebrity get me out of here (which without sounding all BBC2like is absolutely tosh and rubbish TV). What got me was the absolute rubbish food they were selling to the uneducated masses that go to Iceland. Can someone please tell me which Chef or maybe Chev came up with "King prawn Spoons" or Mini Cornish pasties? It just smacks of chav in the first degree.

And FFS that Katona bint is just annoying in the extreme.
