Try the pecan waffle, seriously



IT’S THE WAFFLE HOUSE MEME


WHAT IS IT

It's like the Denny's meme but more southern.

Welcome to the waffle house meme. What is Waffle House, you say? It's a breakfast based chain found mostly in the southeastern US. It's like Denny's, but smaller and Generally, there are only very specific situations and times you go to the waffle house. Going outside these times causes a rift in reality so I wouldn't suggest it.


PROMTS

8 AM: Why the hell are you in Waffle House during breakfast? No one actually eats here for breakfast. You're probably alone except for an old man in the corner with a "VIETNAM VETERAN" baseball cap and a dip cup. At least the coffee is fresh.

12 PM: You're hungover, no doubt about it. Probably everyone else in here is too, including the cook. Order three orders of hashbrowns scattered, chunked, and covered and pray god no one decides to put techno on the jukebox again.

7 PM: You've just pulled off the highway and this is the only thing you've seen for miles, besides some suspect fried chicken places. Someone's put 2 hours worth of 90s country on the jukebox, but it's Garth Brooks so it'll be okay. Order the pecan pie, because you deserve this.

11 PM: You're here for lack of anything else to do, let's be honest. Maybe the party ended too early, or you got off work, or you needed a pee break reeeaalllly bad. Someone probably just put Don't Stop Belivin' on the jukebox and everyone is screeching along. Eat your goddamn pecan waffle and participate

2 AM: You're wasted, or you're the DD for the night. Either way, you're here because someone is blitzed. The only people in here that aren't drunk are the staff and like, three truckers. It doesn't matter what you eat because you won't taste it anyway.

[She's got her head propped in her hand, his sunglasses sliding down her nose as she prods at the syrup her chocolate chip waffle is swimming in. Wincing as a nearby bus boy stacks his dishes a little too loudly, she lifts her gaze to Jensen, pouting.]

Remind me how we made it out of that bar alive, again?

[Jesus christ, Foley is so hungover. Last night was one hell of a bender for her, and it's culminated in this:

Sunglasses indoors (the florescent lights are too damn bright today), a plate of greasy hashbrowns, and an audible groan coming out of her mouth as she sees some jackass trucker heading toward the jukebox for the third time in the last half-hour.

...can you use your crazy hacker powers to keep that thing from working for him? Or if not, could you just, like, shoot it?

[Because, honest-to-god, she doesn't think she has it in her to handle another bout of speed metal right now.]

Because if you do either, this is all my treat. Promise.

"This is not my fault."

Sam says it around a mouthful of mediocre pancakes. Okay, the pancakes themselves are not mediocre, but the syrup - he hesitates to call it maple - is definitely that.

Outside, one can see the tow truck driving away with their formerly smoking vehicle.

"A wrong turn does not make this my fault."

[holy shit, the staff here does not know the meaning of hustle, do they? normally, this wouldn't be a big deal for Uncle Death; he is, after all, the picture, poster child and walking, talking personification of playing it cool, being the type who finds nothing wrong with kicking his feet up on the table he's sitting at in front of Steven, lying back in a booth that — let's be real — is probably home to an industrious family of roaches. and really, it's not as if he even has a stomach to worry about. but the heart gets what it wants, and right now it wants a big stack of waffles smothered in syrup — minimum wage employees be damned.

when counting the gum underneath the table gets too boring, he starts fiddling with the silverware, taking to balancing a butter knife on the pad of his index finger. he manages an impressive seven seconds before it clumsily tumbles to the table, knocking his syrup dispenser over.]


—Awww! Uncool!

[all this gunk, everywhere. all over his sweet coat and awesome gloves, which he's shaking around, and probably all over Steven if he's not quick enough to dodge the flecks of syrup that go flying back towards him.]

[ There is a Waffle House in the New York City metro area. Not many are aware of this, and Magnus wavers between regret of knowing, and relief of knowing, only because it is a building that few non-mundanes tend to frequent. Presumably no one will recognize him, or even care about his presence, save for the man he came to meet. Nonetheless, the warlock controls an urge to shudder as he slides into the seat across from Alec without warning, arms braced gingerly against the table top. He'd rather not subject his clothing to poor hygienic practices and other such abuse, unless absolutely necessary. (Seriously, is that sticky substance syrup?) ]

Whoever decorated this place ought to have been shot.

[It's late at night, and Sabriel looks like death warmed over and escaped from a renaissance festival- she's wearing armor with a bandolier of bells- and a sword on her lap.

Oddly, she gives no sign of feeling out of place- instead, she's focused on eating her waffles and humming along to whatever's on the jukebox.]

She sees Sabriel right away and, on a hunch or a turn of faith or something, she slides in across from her.]
