It's a sandwich on its side, of course. I think you're trying a little too hard.
I think his point is that the definition is problematic. He isn't trying too hard, just demonstrating the problems with the definition as it stands.

To me, since all of the "layers" of the hot dog lie in the same plane, it is not a sandwich until it is turned on its side. If you eat your hot dog sideways, you are eating a sandwich. If you eat it meat side up, you aren't.

What is this insanity? Your entire post is called into question because of this.

An open face sandwich. I didn't write it. The dictionary people did and if you look up sandwich in multiple places, you'll see "open sandwich" or the like.
What exactly do you call an open face sandwich?
P.S. Dictionary.com also deems a corn dog to be a sandwich.
That should blow your mind right into a thousand pieces.
a sandwich consisting of a frankfurter baked or fried in corn bread and usually spread with mustard before eating: often served on a stick.

Therefore open face sandwich =/= regular sandwich.
When you are making hot dogs, do you tell your friends "hey I'm making hot dogs, would you like one" or do you tell them "hey, I'm making open face frankfurter sandwiches, would you like one?"
A hot dog is a hot dog, and don't you dare put any ketchup on it.

I am irrationally angry about that. That is the most nonsensical thing I've ever read
ETA: So does that mean LSU fans are sandwiches?
Also, what if I put two slices of pizza together, toppings inward? Does that become a sandwich?

Yes, a type of sandwich.

If a calzone is a sandwich, then where in the hell does a waffle cone filled with fried chicken and mashed potatoes fall into the taxonomy?

The waffle cone is a gray area, but I believe that would fall into the "mystery" sandwich category.
-still a style of sandwich.
