ok well i was wondering, why do people use the phrase " the best thing since sliced bread"? i mean, unsliced bread is so much nicer. and it has a better texture. and you can choose your size depending on what you are eating- no restrictions because the folks brought the wrong thickness loaf ^_^

NB: i prefer to cut my bread thick. especially for toast. i could live on toast

I love bread, but I prefer rolls to actual loaf bread. Dunno why.

what if you want a slice of bread wider than a loaf is long?

and surely the word spam ran across your mind when posting this.

the phrase, better than....., i think it comes from a time when sliced bread was state of the art. in such a way people would come from miles around to watch bread be sliced, because it was so cool. i guess the phrase was coined when something better came along...........like tv http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

1) then your an idiot
2) nop, not for a second. i had eaten sum toast made of unsliced bread(although the term "unsliced" is kind of odd, as most people slice it to eat it anyway) and it was bloody nice. so i thought wtf do people use the time-honoured phrase better than..
3) you actually put thought into that last bit didnt you??lol

1) i resent that
2) well mabye i busted you and your trying to cover your tracks............with your toash shenanigans.
3) well i think the first line for all intents and purposes is correct. but the rest is kinda made up. ffs its 4 lines. you dont need a degree in how to get more degrees to work that one out. i liked it though. it just seemed right in a TV way.

Unsliced. Sliced's crust is so soft it doesnt tasted good. Crust is what makes the bread!

I like sliced bread because I wouldn't want to waste my time cutting bread before I make a sandwich.

well neko has been on this site since June 14th 2001, or 872 days (and yes that took me 10 mins to work out), i cant speak for neko on how long shes been on 'take our word for it'.

im confused over which point was the first, was that my one about the slice being thicker than a load of bread?

i dont get why you quoted that line of mine? i was resenting the face darth had called me an idiot, not anything to do with bread.
but i agree with the sentiment that im too lazy to cut bread myself. im sure id be crap at it anyway. my dad cuts his bread, but my sliced is a nice conveniant size, especially for the toaster (duh) http://www.pso-world.com/psoworld/images/phpbb/icons/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif
