The Age Old Question: Is ‘Die Hard’ a Christmas Movie?
Is “Die Hard” a Christmas Movie, and is a hot dog a sandwich?
Over 25,000 people took a fun Buzzfeed poll on divisive questions. They have no answers — or do they?
The Answers For Questions With No Answers
For example: “What’s the best day of the week?” Saturday got 46% of the vote, and Friday was second at 37%. Monday was voted the worst day of the week. A big “duhhh” on that. And 57% still don’t think socks with sandals is a good look.
The Mike and Carla Morning Show took to the listeners to answer some of these very divisive — and stupid — questions. They were actually very decisive on many of these questions. Mike, Carla, and Producer Morty didn’t necessarily agree, but it was interesting
These questions are really fun, because there really is no right or wrong answer. See what you think.
Hot Dogs, Straws, and Die Hard
Is a hot dog a sandwich? It’s meat between bread, but 81% said “no” in the Buzzfeed poll. Mike and Carla said “nope!” not a sandwich. Producer Morty said it absolutely is!
Listeners had fun with this one: “Does a straw have one hole or two?” Morty said two. Mike and Carla said one. It’s actually a small tunnel. And some listeners agreed. According to Buzzfeed, 61% said one hole, 39% said two holes — one on each end. But according to Science ABC: A straw only has one hole.
Another interesting question: What brownie is better? The edge piece or the middle piece? Carla and Morty agree on the edge being the best. You get the chewiness and the crunchiness. But Mike says only the middle will do. Middle brownie snobbery.
Raise your hand if you saw “Titanic?” Could Jack have fit on the door with Rose at the end of the movie? Most people believe he absolutely could have. But that’s obviously not what James Cameron wanted. So Jack didn’t even try. But he could have. Thanks Rose.
One of the most divisive questions still remains Is “Die Hard” a Christmas movie? Yes, it takes place on Christmas Eve, but does that mean it’s a Christmas movie? If that’s the case then “Batman Returns,” “Lethal Weapon,” and “Ironman,” should all be Christmas movies too. Mike and Carla said “nope.” Morty said it absolutely is! Listeners were split.
My final answer? NO -DIE HARD IS NOT A CHRISTMAS MOVIE. Even Bruce Willis says it is not.
Does pineapple belong on pizza? PlayStation or Xbox? Is Cereal soup? Stupid questions, for sure. But always fun for fodder.
Merry Christmas — even though it’s not Christmas yet, but there are lights up.
