Cheese Sandwich Bought for $28,000
Words fail me. This woman should take the proceeds and find herself good psychiatric help (or at least, a good liquor store).
Y’know, if I were Satan, and I were bored, I’d plaster the world with images of the Virgin Mary on things like waffles and grilled cheese sandwiches.
If I were God, I most certainly WOULDN’T put images of the Virgin Mary on a grilled cheese sandwich.
Just sayin’.

Who here wanted to buy the sandwich, videotape themselves eating it (commenting on how nasty it tasted the whole while), and send the tape back to the seller?
Just me?
I don’t have $28,000 to blow on a ten-year-old sandwich, anyway, so the idea was moot…
Last year on another messageboard I frequent, a fantasy football one, someone posted a link to that kick-ass Honda commercial (the one that’s about 3.5 minutes long, and involves a giant chain reaction of events that culminates in the starting up of the new Honda, all the pieces of the reaction being made from parts of the car - extremely cool).
Over the next few weeks, a link to that commercial would be posted in a new thread roughly every 3.935 minutes. It got to the point where the mods created a new smilie, the Honda. It was a regular smilie, holding up a placard, with the Honda “H” on it.
We need one of those smilies.
The hamsters are on drugs. I posted in this thread, my post is not here.
Uh…are you sure it’s the hamsters on drugs? Or have you suddenly turned Zen?

So, LHoD, you’re implying that this is the Devil’s doing, and that the woman is sharing Lucifer with the world. Do you think she’s a dupe, or she’s really a follower of the Church of Satan?
Pot calling the kettle black.
…Heh, relax, it’s just the pot talking.
Nah, JUST SAYIN’.
I personally think it’s not the Devil’s doing, so much as it is the Skillet’s doing. I believe in the Skillet, you see. But if I DID believe in the whole God & Devil thing, I’d lay my odds on the Fellow Down Under being responsible.
I mean, c’mon. If you were God, offering a miracle by which to promote religion, would you:
- Put the Virgin Mary’s countenance blazing in the sky, where all and sundry could see it and realize Your power, or
- Put her countenance on a grilled cheese sandwich, where she might get et with noboody noticing, or if people do notice, it’d become a laughingstock?
Contrariwise, if you’re The Big Bad, would you:
- Put your countenance blazing in the sky, where it’s gonna scare people into the hands of the Noble Opposition, or
- Put the Virgin Mary’s countenance in ridiculous places, where it turns the credulous into a laughingstock?
I’m just sayin I don’t think God, if He exists, is a moron.

Somebody remind me, what’s the Virgin Mary look like again? I don’t recall seeing any recent photos.
Don’t sell him short.

Hmmm, impossible to tell, since I hear she’s had a lot of work done. Botox, all that.
I’m sure God got hit big for child support and alimony.
How much could I get by selling an old potato chip with an image of the virgin Connie Swail on it?
Lets see who gets the reference…
You know, Lobsang, since this is the 729th identical thread regarding this particular sandwich, it may just be that the thread you thought you posted to is not the thread you posted to.
Also, as everyone knows, this is not the Virgin Mary’s face on the sandwich, it is, in fact, the visage of Virginia Mayo. A simple typographical error, but a very expensive proofreading lesson.
Dragnet.
Where’s my cheese sandwich?
The suspicious thing is, the face doesn’t look like The Madonna the religious icon so much as Madonna the everpresent pop star.
Not that anyone knows what Mary looked like anyway.
It’s a miracle, I tell ya.
Assuming the buyer wanted to scarf down a decade old sammitch with the viasge of BVM emblazoned on the velveeta, would that which was produced by their digestive system be called ‘Holy Shit?’ :dubious:
I imagine they would be on their knees before the experience was over, one way or the other.
