Waffle House quality is probably fine. I wouldn't know, I was always drunk when I was taken there...

[–] wpb@lemmy.world 38 points 15 hours ago (2 children)

This is advertising. Cute posts from corporate accounts are there for no reason other than creating brand awareness. You reposted advertising.

I thought it was funny, so I upvoted

Could be true but I still love it.

Someone should make a PVP game set in a waffle house.

Will you be a front worker or kitchen staff ?

What skills do each get.

For every 5 hours of play, you level up.

Or will you be the crack head , the karen, the racist, the drunk , or the guy who slaps his gf in public. ?

Random assignment each game.

I'd watch.

Waffle House has raised their overall prices by 96% since 2020. Hash browns increased by 110% and coffee went from $1.80 to $3.15. At one point, they added a $0.50 cent surcharge per egg due to the shortages caused by the avian flu.

It’s easy and cheap to make breakfast at home with 50% less grease. Waffle House ain’t cheap anymore and that’s all they really had going.

I always assumed Waffle House was never really a destination, but somewhere you end up hungover or coming down from your actual destination?

Are there crazy people who actually go there just to go!?

What if you run over a waffle, that looks like a pancake?

Remaining use cases for Waffle House are drunk fights and measuring the scale of natural disasters / catastrophic events, see Waffle House Index.

[–] Th3D3k0y@lemmy.world 9 points 18 hours ago

Honestly, I like Waffle House. I am also not getting massive meals when I go. My kids get Waffles and Bacon, I get a Bacon Egg and Cheese. Our whole bill is maybe 20 bucks, which after materials and the time involves isn't much more than at home.

No one really goes to Waffle House on purpose.

[–] Ghostie@lemmy.zip 11 points 16 hours ago (2 children)

Last time I went to Waffle House was for a quick breakfast on my way to buy my girlfriend Plan B.

On your way? Should have just asked, I bet someone at the waffle house could have sold it to you.

The police? Ambulances?

[–] anikahj@ani.social 4 points 15 hours ago* (last edited 15 hours ago)

Yeah it’s pretty sad. Back in high school a bunch of my friends would hang out at the Waffle House sometime between 10pm and 4am several times a week. It was 3.25 for coffee and a waffle. If you forgot your wallet you could usually scrounge for change under your friends car seats and make it happen. That was about 10 years ago, but man it feels like a whole different time, and just yesterday all at the same time. The cost of everything now makes me sick

Once when I was in Indiana I went to a waffle house because I had never been. I wanna say it was late 2023. I think it seemed fairly cheap as far as eating at a restaurant goes but that may have just been because I am not from Indianapolis.

I remember thinking the food was alright. I'd definitely paid more for worse.

[–] night_petal@piefed.social 6 points 17 hours ago

I remember years ago Steak N Shake came out with some promo that was something like "10 meals under $10" and Waffle House responded with I think 15 under $5.

What do they even have to gain from that, hucking chairs at underpaid employees that are just trying to cook breakfasts for people? Who even shows up to a Waffle House, all β€œI’m gonna make sure to get some felonies before I’m done eating,” and just not even backing down?

[–] Okokimup@lemmy.world 20 points 19 hours ago

Pretty sure meth is involved.

[–] TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip 26 points 20 hours ago (2 children)

That chair redirect was amazing. You know after taking that beating she was in full time dilation.

[–] dingus@lemmy.world 17 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

She got fired for this video, unfortunately. :(

[–] TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip 23 points 19 hours ago (2 children)

WH doesn’t deserve an employee this dedicated. I hope she went on to better things like security or setting fire to the bourgeoisie… any job that lets her throw down from time to time.

I'd love to know why this shit kicked off, but I think "Waffle house fight" will have waaay too many results to find the motivations behind THIS SPECIFIC one.

Also, I love the "Careers? Text WAFFLE to 123456" as if this is a stealth recruitment drive

[–] Tehhund@lemmy.world 2 points 11 hours ago (1 children)

"Looking for a career? Do you have at least 6 months of experience as a cage fighter? Text WAFFLE to 123456"

I just woke up, and I know this is the best thing I'll see all day.

Rookie. Everybody knows that Waffle House employees are chaotic neutral and deal +4 damage if you jump the counter.

That is a guy who never tried the chili on waffle or chicken and waffles.Β 

[–] MTZ@lemmy.world 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

I never have but the chili on Hash Browns is excellent. I definitely recommend it if you've never tried it.

[–] Averagejoe@lemmy.org 3 points 14 hours ago

I actually don’t think I’ve tried it before. I assume it is like having chili on tots

A few years back, I had a GF from South Carolina. We have one Waffle House here where I live, but it's a half-hour drive away so I'd never been. She insisted we go, and now I fucking love Waffle House. It's like a full step back in time, and one step to the left. I think the employees must need to audition for the job, like a movie or TV show.

[–] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 16 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

It's more like a battle royale. 10 job applicants enter. Last one standing gets the job. No other education or experience necessary.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 24 points 19 hours ago

"You got a criminal background?"

"No"

"Well, if you do well enough we might be able to look past that"

Waffle House with the "Say it to my face, bitch!"

[–] Pudutr0n@lemmy.world 20 points 20 hours ago

Waffle House: "Sup brah?"

[–] stoly@lemmy.world 3 points 14 hours ago

Although the clientele can sometimes be questionable, Waffle House has really good food for the price.
