    You’re being facetious but searching is a skill too. A simple skill but still a skill.

      Nobody said it wasn’t a skill, just that it isn’t the same thing as creating art. You know, the thing that artists do.

        So you’re just bothered by the use of the term “artist” to describe it?

        Subway calls their employees “sandwich artists”, but I don’t see anyone freaking out about how those people aren’t really creating art.

          I’m not bothered, just pointing out that you are entirely missing the point of the meme.

          Everyone mocks Subway for calling their employees ‘artists’.

            Can confirm. I mock subway for calling their employees “artists”.

            Also, if they can’t meet the legal Irish definition of bread, then they certainly shouldn’t be calling the whole thing a sandwich. That “ham” wasn’t sliced, it was extruded into that shape.

          They work to create an appealing looking and tasting sandwich and make a bit of a show out of the process. It might not be super impressive or extraordinary, but I suppose it can be considered somewhat of an art
