    Some of my best Uber rider stories are from Waffle House waitresses. Legit fucking warriors, you have NO. IDEA. Unless your imagination involves the words “race war in the restaurant,” you have no idea.

    She was citing that as the LESS DRAMATIC LOCATION TO WORK AT. I shit you not, my hand to God.

    But their food is garbage.

      Waffle House food isn’t meant to be enjoyed sober. It isn’t even meant to be enjoyed buzzed. You gotta be to the point where you don’t remember how the fuck you got there, but that All-Star Special be lookin delicious.

        I feel like 10-15 years ago Waffle House was a really decent greasy spoon diner for the money. I remember being able to get an all star special for five bucks. I just looked it up and they’re wanting $13-14 now…

        I don’t know I’ve been to the waffle House in Colorado springs and it was actually pretty decent. I was actually kind of sad that I went there twice now and no fights. A legit asked the waitress about that since I’d never been to one before and I really wanted to see some shit happening. She said that I had just missed the six completely blitzed college chicks that got into a major fight in the middle of the restaurant.

      “Race War in the Restaurant” sounds like the successor to “Panic at the Disco”

      You don’t go to WH during normal business hours. You go in the wee hours of the morning or very late in the evening under the influence of your substance of choice.

      It doesn’t surprise me to learn that it’s a less dramatic place to work. All of the staff is ready to kill at any moment, I wouldn’t bring drama either 😅

        To be clear, I took that as her comparing two different Waffle Houses and the one with the race war was less dramatic than the other

      • ivanafterall@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago

        Sorry, I meant that she had changed Waffle House locations. The one here was “better” than the one in Texas, “except for the time a race war broke out in the restaurant.”

      I’ve a '79 Corvette. The first night I met my wife, I took her for a ride in it to the local Waffle House.

      I guess it worked; she married me eight years later.

    You don’t “go” to a Waffle House, You “find” yourself at a Waffle House.

    If you run over a pancake with a car, it looks like a waffle. If you run over a waffle with a car, it looks like a pancake. No other food does this. I’ve run over a lot of food.

    … If anyone is from Seattle:

    The CrackDonalds, 3rd and Pine.

    For those not from Seattle, go on Google Maps and pull up streetview right now… yep, the camera car drove by with the cops there.

    Because they are basically always there, because, for like at least 20 years, that McDonalds has basically been a constant scene of absolute insanity.

    There is a pretty good chance that any time you’re there or walking past it, some kind of crime that can put you away for 5 years minimum has occured within the last 8 hours.

    The staff there have seen some shit, lemme tell ya.

    I’ve seen some shit there, many times, so many times.

    That McDonalds. That particular one.

    I’d say they’d stand a good chance against a Waffle House crew.

      Damn, you weren’t kidding. I was expecting a cop car, not six.

      To anyone looking, you have to get the corner/mid-intersection shot to get the mess of police. If you’re just going up Pine, it looks pretty benign.

        And as it is in that view, Sept 2025… yeah, that whole block is actually looking a lot cleaner than it normally does, at least in my experience.

        Let’s just say its difficult to describe the … smell.

        Maybe today it’ll be meth! Maybe fent!

        Probably weed and cigarettes, decent forecast of vomit, shit, or piss, and, once in a blue moon, just an actual decaying corpse.

        Yep, that particular bundle of blankets and tarps, that particular homeless person? Not sleeping, literally dead.

        I’ve seen em clean the … residue … away, with basically flamethrowers.

        They do.

        From their website:

        The Waffle House employees receive health insurance, dental insurance, vision insurance, and life insurance.

    Fiege, Waldron, are you listening? You need this scene.

    Although to be fair the Waffle House staff would more likely be on the same side as the Avengers. Save their asses with a chair to Thanos’ head or something.

    Lol, the threadiverse has a slice of after dark waffles. The daytime crowd is mostly quiet local regulars. The staff are just the most skilled at running the place with the fewest of them as possible to make half decent money. Most of them have a small line in the door and every seat taken in the morning.
