A “sandwich” is a term used in internet slang to describe a situation where a person interrupts two others conversing online by inserting their own message or comment. It refers to someone “sandwiching” themselves in the middle of an ongoing conversation.

Examples:

Example 1:

UserA: Hey, did you guys watch the new episode of that TV show last night?
UserB: Yes! It was amazing, especially the plot twist at the end!
UserC: I love that show too, but have you seen this other series? It’s even better!
UserA: Dude, you just sandwiched yourself into our conversation!

Example 2:

UserX: Just booked my vacation to Hawaii! So excited!
UserY: That’s awesome! Hawaii is beautiful. The beaches are amazing.
UserZ: Oh, I went to Hawaii last year and had the best time ever. You should try the snorkeling there!
UserX: Hey, UserZ, no need to sandwich yourself into our conversation. I was sharing my excitement.
