Hey, Hec, would you call this a muffaletta?
Nope. But you can see that they consider the olives to be the essential muffaletta defining ingredient.
...because God knows you need some satisfaction in life besides shagging Captain Cardboard! And I never really liked you anyway. And you have stupid hair!

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
Hey! Why must I suffer?
Because Sean would have eaten your muffaletta.
But I think we should get you one, like, now. Would you like it with olives, or without?

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I know. It was the high school hangout place. We giggled a lot.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Well, see if I call him SuperFab Fonzie Dude With a Big Swinging Dick.

I think I'm actually responsible for starting all this, since I proclaimed that I scrape most of the olives off my muffaletta.

Yeah, that's going to assuage her cravings.

Just don't put any disgusting green olives in it, 'kay?

I'm sorry but that's how he ordered it.
Then he threw the olive on the ground and called it a muffaletta.

Plus, I thought it might make Sean like me.
You don't have to do anything to make me like you, Dana. I already do.
And I'd totally let you eat my muffaletta if you wanted it.
"Here's your Martini."
That's a vodka and tonic. I asked for a vodka martini.
Not at all. It's impossible to have a muffaletta without olives.
And whenever the question of What Is A Muffaletta comes up, everyone know the preeminent authority on the subject is the Hecubot?

I guess it won't do to Comm about 60 posts, will it?
I really lost it at "I've moved on from the receipt thing. You should let it go."
My stand on the burning questions of the hour are:
If you take the olive salad off, it's a perfectly good and distinctive sandwich, but not, strictly speaking, a muffaletta.
We do not want Deb eating muffalettas with olives, because we want to keep her around for a good long time.
Putting a cat in a dog house does not make it a dog. Putting anything but gin, vermouth and an olive, pickled onion or twist in a martini glass does not make the drink a martini.
