Can't wait till the Hot Dog episode. Will that be the real "Pink" show?

I hope that after the contest is done that we can actually get a Davtonary in the Store.

Great episode. Now if the Blue show will get on iTunes now..

Lono you are really going to have to justify exactly why you can't put ketchup on Hot Dog's!?! If you do manage to convince me then you might want to spend some time convincing the rest of the world coz they don't seem to agree with you.

Put whatever you want on a hot dog, but not ketchup. It's a sin against nature.

Only children are allowed ketchup on their hot dogs!

Dirty Harry hates ketchup
F5JIpT4GkyM

From Wiki
Some Americans believe that a properly made hot dog should never be topped with ketchup, since it overpowers and destroys the taste of the hot dog instead of complementing it.[15] In Chicago, some restaurants and hot dog stands that consider themselves to be "true" purveyors of Chicago-style hot dogs do not, as a rule, carry ketchup in stock, even if they serve other food items that use this condiment, such as French fries. The National Hot Dog & Sausage Council, in its tongue-in-cheek recommendations for proper Hot Dog Etiquette capitulate only slightly to the public's general regard for ketchup, saying, "Don't use ketchup on your hot dog after the age of 18."

That is some good research. I guess I have an excuse since I am 15 :lol:.

Why are you complaining about lag issues on consoles? Of course they are going to have a lag issue because there is now backbone for online play. All of the tf2, hl2 deathmatch, and CSS have servers that run the game and usually have a huge amount of bandwidth. With consoles your going from console to console using a commercial ISP like Road Runner or Comcast which limits your bandwidth and speed.

I'm about to listen to that ending again...

By the way, can you post some of these "Davebulary" words? I know I've heard some, but I'm drawing a blank as to specifics. If someone could either post them here or PM me...

I was completely unaware that it was apparently taboo to put ketchup on a hot dog. But I'm with Doc, "I'll put pudding on it if I want to." Besides, if I'm not putting ketchup on it, what else am I supposed to put on it?

Also, Braid is 100% worth the 1200 bizarro dollars. I absolutely love, love, loved that game. I just love how clever it is and how you have to think a little differently from normal game puzzles. There's a lot of spots where at first you think it's impossible and you'll have to get some power-up. In fact, you can almost always solve every puzzle before leaving the area. There's only time in which that's not the case which is in World 2.

Hint:
you have to grab a few puzzle pieces and return to that area

Also agreed. Generally when I make sandwiches, burgers, etc. I generally only have a few things on them. Nothing too over-the-top. For hot dogs I just go with some ketchup.

I'm going to try a hotdog without ketchup, then I shall make a judgment. Though I had never actually knew that Chicago was famous for hotdogs. I also didn't know you weren't supposed to put ketchup on hotdogs I thought (like most others) that hotdogs could have any ingredient you wanted.

Look... I honestly have never actually tried what you call the perfect hotdog, so I may actually like it. But until then, (even though I VERY rarely eat hotdogs, hamburgers are much, much better) I will continue eating what I eat. Shouldn't the ideal hotdog be something where you don't have to put all this stuff on it? Shouldn't it be perfect alone?

No, young padawan. A plain hot dog is simply in its beginning stages of perfection before the proper condiments are applied that will raise the level of said dog to absolute perfection.

Some Americans believe that a properly made hot dog should never be topped with ketchup, since it overpowers and destroys the taste of the hot dog instead of complementing it.

Okay now your going to have to explain to me how exactly ketchup (a very mild flavouring) could possibly overpower something more than mustard and pickles? And what the hell is with the Poppy seed bun?

Not denying your right to eat it any way you want but your justification seems a little bit off. :tongue:

Are you my mentor in world of hotdogs now? :D
Well at some point I will try your condiment riddled hotdog, maybe the next time I go to a Cubs game or something.

Actually, I probably won't even eat a hotdog until then, there are much better things honestly.

BTW, a Hotdog is perfect with only mustard... adding pickles to your 'dog is like adding anchovees (SP?) to your Pizza.
