The real hot dog was the hot dog we made along the way

On a definitely related note, I've recently been thinking it's wild how we build foot paths out of rocks and then put on rubber socks for actually walking on them.

In other words, asphalt is a scam by Big Foot to sell more shoes.

Imagine if all roads were made of soft squishy stuff like rubber or carpet…one can only dream…

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

That sounds fucking disgusting

[–] sbeak@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 hours ago

no, roads would be soft and nice!

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 2 points 20 hours ago

Asphalt and concrete roads are both just elaborate gravel roads

Statement: While the majority of Lemmy may consist of subpar meat bags that does not mean all are meat bags.

[–] LuckyJones@lemmy.world 5 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Shh! Not so loud. You'll spook the neighbours.

They're made out of meat

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I thought we were ugly bags of mostly water.

[–] hansolo@lemmy.today 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Both correct.

Also, there are four lights.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 4 points 22 hours ago

There's a fifth, but

[–] Rivalarrival@lemmy.today 3 points 23 hours ago

Maybe we're a carbon based intelligence that just goes through a meat phase.

a hotdog isn't just a sausage, but we might consider ourselves sausages tho

[–] moosetwin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

if you turn the inside of a hotdog into feces it's not a hotdog anymore, this is my hot take

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 7 points 1 day ago

It only stops being a hot dog when it comes out of your ass as it is no longer encased.

[–] logicbomb@lemmy.world 2 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

But by that logic, a human centipede wouldn't be a string of hot dogs.

[–] Scott_of_the_Arctic@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

I don't know if they're dogs, but they're definitely hot. 3===\\\\'=>

3=\\\\'===>

The rest of the animal isn’t around a hot dog casing.

[–] propter_hog@hexbear.net 2 points 20 hours ago

Only after you wrap yourself in a bread blanket

[–] Prox@lemmy.world 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

We are all hot dogs on this blessed day. 🙌

[–] draconik@infosec.pub 2 points 21 hours ago

Speak for yourself

[–] winkly@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

It’s hotdogs all the way down

[–] Vanilla_PuddinFudge@infosec.pub 3 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

Not all hotdogs have casings

Sausage in - sausage out
