LOST characters explain how to make a sandwich

Thought this was great and just had to share!  From tumblr.  Libby’s sandwich is my favorite.

How To Make a Sandwich on the Island:

Jack
1. Gather ingredients
2. Point gun at ingredients and shout “HOW DO I MAKE A SANDWICH OUT OF YOU?!?!?”
3. Breathe heavily through your nose as though you were about to hit ingredients
4. Give up and make the sandwich yourself, and eat it bitterly

Kate
1. Make separate sandwiches, one with peanut butter and one with jelly
2. Take a bite of the peanut butter sandwich, declaring it the best
3. Take a bite of the jelly sandwich, declaring it the best
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 ad infinitum
5. Follow peanut butter or jelly sandwich into grave danger

Sawyer
1. Throw the jar of jelly at wall, sneering “I don’t need no sandwich”
2. Call the mascot on the jar of peanut butter lots of clever nicknames
3. Huff and puff and stomp around and grumble a lot
4. When no one’s looking, make perfect, even, symmetrical peanut butter and jelly sandwich and sit in a corner, enjoying every bite

Locke
1. Sit idly by, believing that the ingredients will find a way to make a sandwich out of themselves
2. Lose faith and make the sandwich anyway
3. Realize that you were the instrument by which the ingredients chose to make a sandwich after all
4. Run around the room and grab everyone’s knives, insisting that their sandwiches will do the same in time

Hurley
1. Make sandwich
2. Eat sandwich
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 ad infinitum

Sayid
1. Procure 23 milligrams of uranium-20
2. Set hadron supercollider to eight megajoules

2. Call the sandwich “brother”
3. Place peanut butter slice over jelly slice
4. Spread jelly on the other slice
5. Spread peanut butter on one slice
6. Take two slices of bread, a jar of peanut butter and a jar of jelly

Ben
1. Steal someone else’s sandwich
2. Claim you coerced them into making the sandwich for you all along
3. Say you’ll tell them everything if they make you another sandwich
4. Stare at them all creepy-like

Libby
1. Lay out plans for one of the most intricate, fascinating, and delicious sandwiches of all time
2. Just as you start making it, get shot

Danielle
1. Apply peanut butter
2. Disappear for eight months
3. Apply jelly
4. Disappear for eight months
5. Eat sandwich

Claire
1. Mmmmmmm, peanut butter

Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse

2. Have someone take a bite, then tell them it’s a baloney sandwich
3. Make up a whole bunch of other shit, then say you had planned it all along
4. Buy a few yachts

    Charles Widmore would buy a very expensive sandwich at auction, act as if he were about to share it with you, and then say you're not worthy of his sandwich.

    For three years, Desmond had to make a new sandwich every 108 minutes or the world would end. It was the only great thing he ever did.

    Locke got his sandwich from Richard. He held onto it, went back in time, and then gave it to Richard so that Richard could give it to him.

    Daniel Faraday would make but never eat his sandwich, storing it in a safe deposit box at Oxford so it could act as his constant.

    Jacob had a sandwich handed to him by God himself.

    But Ms. Hawking would make you realize that, no, you DON'T MAKE THE SANDWICH.

    (P.S. Chris Tucker, I like your name.)

    charlie warns everyone that the sandwich on the freighter is "NOT PENNY'S SANDWICH" so... it's up in the air. first one to the freighter gets a free sandwich.

    mikhail has a very hard time making sandwiches, because he has issues with depth perception, and they always turn out gross. but no one ever eats them anyway, because he kicks them in the face before they get a chance.

    walt can make sandwiches with his mind, just by thinking about them.

    and last, but not least...

    frank lapidus makes a damn good sandwich.

    And Libby can take solace in Dr. Arzt's similarly interrupted sandwich-making process.

    1. Lay out two slices of bread.
    2. Spread pean--ka-BOOOOMM!!!!

    PROVERBIAL. PROVERBIAL sandwich.

    Also, it's really NOT that hard to link directly to the blog post you stole, instead of linking to a Tumblr category. I'd link it myself if this comment form didn't stop me from posting URLs. Here's the best I can do:

    Dear spellcheck and credit (if that is, indeed, your real name),

    I thank you for catching my spelling mistake, but am offended by your insinuation that I stole the referenced blog post. I shared this material and sourced the link provided by Google Alerts. The link you created does not point to the same source.

    And btw, if you’ll run a check of your own, you’ll actually find spell-check or spell check to be correct.

    Hope you enjoyed the read anyway.

    "Spellcheck and credit" may have jumped down your throat a bit, but I'm not sure there's any denying that the link he/she posted is the same as the content you've reproduced here. Perhaps you could change it, if only for 15-year-old Phil's sake (poor Phil!). And after all, tumblr.com/tagged/damon+lindelof is indeed only a category, which no longer points to this content...at all. Great find, though!

    Hey Kristy, Thanks. I'm still laughing, two hours later! My wife and I are LOST junkies and have been lost (no pun intended) without my weekly fix of Ben Linus and Jack "We Gotta go BACK" Sheppard. It's hard to believe that such a brilliant show is gone. However, how far could it have gone? I forget, writing news for the Examiner, that there is a fun and mysterious world out there. I think I go throw the first season of LOST on and start watching it from the beginning, all over again! Thanks!
