So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

A club sandwich is not complicated.

Seriously, and you should not have paid for that sandwich!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

A club sandwich is s little complicated. If it's on the menu it really shouldn't take 3 tries, though.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'll also note that the Spanish for meat, tomato, lettuce and bread isn't exactly Level 201, although I don't know if that includes 'bacon' or not.

Hey. New board.

Pretty sure it's "bacon" in Spanish. It is in portuguese.

Ha! Just looked it up, and it's el tocino OR el beicon. Bacon truly is part of the international language.

You can also use lunchar (to lunch) in at least some Spanish-speaking places, so I guess English takes over when the concept is pretty American.

In other news, I just ran into a former coworker on the street, and I know I know her, but still have basically no idea who she is! Good times.

Hey. New board.

In Brazil, a cheeseburger is called a XBurger, pronounced "shees boerger" because that is how you pronounce that letter.

Hey. New board.

And a bacon cheeseburger is XBacon

I'll assert that while a club sandwich is structurally complicated when compared to other sandwiches, it is also a longstanding member of sandwich canon and should not be difficult to order or execute in either Spanish or English.
