Not mentioned in this article is these vacant apartments are mostly owned by slumlords who take advantage of international students who have to take a place sight unseen. These landlords are some of the only people getting fucked by Trump's policies who actually deserve it

            I'm a firm believer in a thin layer of a mayo based sauce on the majority of sliced/chopped meat sandwiches. Even pastrami. The lipid moisture barrier delays bread sog.
Aside: D'Angelo sold packets of Mr. Spice garlic steak sauce in the 90s for the Number 9 and I still special order that shit.

My less popular take is the salami on a traditional bomb is undetectable to the palate and therefore extraneous (especially if it has hots, which it should).

            One of my hot takes is the Boston area steak and cheese / steak bomb is an order of magnitude better than Philly cheesesteaks. Telling this to Philly people upsets them until I add that a Philly roast pork & raab is better than both, at which point they admit Boston has the superior steak sub.
