"'scuse me mate, is that the cheese sandwich you've got there?"

"Er, yes"

"Is it any good?"

"It's a cheese sandwich."

"Yeah?"

"Have you ever had a cheese sandwich before?"

"Yeah."

"Did you like it?"

"Yes mate!"

"Then you'll like this cheese sandwich."

"Oh yeah?"

"Yes, because it's a cheese sandwich. It's more or less exactly what you'd expect from a cheese sandwich. If I was to be critical I'd say it was a tad heavy on cheese and a little light on lettuce..."

"Right?"

"But it's still a cheese sandwich."

"Ok mate! Thanks!"
