Just saw an article on the NYT about a man who was arrested for assaulting a federal officer in WDC. . .with his Subway sandwich. He started out yelling at the feds, calling them “fascists”, started to leave, then returned and hit the guy in the chest with the food. They chased him down and arrested him. He could get a year or more.

Moderating: Spun off new thread.

Absolutely. (and yes I see what you did there.)

This seems like a clear case of malicious prosciutto.

Well, I’m out of puns, so let’s wrap this up.

I read that as ‘beat fish.

The difference between meat and fish is that if you beat your fish, it will die.

The thing about Subway’s bread is that it’s terrible. You can hardly make anything out of flour worse than what they make. The sandwich fillings are fine, but the bun is the lowest form of wheat.

Setting the dumb jokes aside, turns out the bread-tosser was – and that’s the correct tense–a DOJ employee:

If it becomes a trend, instead of sandwiches they should throw pierogi at the cops, to commemorate their boss
