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

[-] MTZ@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Could be true but I still love it.

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!?

Truly inspirational

[-] ulterno@programming.dev 0 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

Yes it's my literal favorite

[-] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

The Texas steak sandwich is an absolute must for a hangover.

[-] HelluvaKick@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

I haven't had a non breakfast item from there in 15 years. Will try it

[-] anikahj@ani.social 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks 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

[-] night_petal@piefed.social 1 points 2 weeks 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.

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.

[-] UnspecificGravity@piefed.social 0 points 2 weeks ago

No one really goes to Waffle House on purpose.

[-] Ghostie@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] Imgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

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

"Stop right there, criminal scum! Here, take a menu and sit wherever you'd like. Will you be taking regular or decaf today?"

[-] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 weeks ago

"This place is nasty. Terrible cooks, idiot staff!"

[-] Janx@piefed.social 6 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

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

[-] SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)
[-] TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

She got fired for this video, unfortunately. :(

[-] TheAsianDonKnots@lemmy.zip 0 points 2 weeks ago

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.

[-] SSUPII@sopuli.xyz 0 points 2 weeks ago

If I remember the story correctly that employee instigated the fight

[-] dingus@lemmy.world 2 points 2 weeks ago

Interesting. I didn't hear this part. Do you have more on this backstory? I watched a video from chair girl, but she didn't mention instigating anything. I mean I definitely wouldn't blame her for not wanting to admit it lol.

[-] Skullgrid@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] YoiksAndAway@piefed.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

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

[-] tanisnikana@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

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 ā€œI’m gonna make sure to get some felonies before I’m done eating,ā€ and just not even backing down?

[-] Okokimup@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Pretty sure meth is involved.

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

I always want the mouthy camera assholes to get kicked in the teeth.

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Normally I’d agree, but this mouthy camera guy was 100% right the whole time: they should train more, because that was embarrassing to watch; they’re tempting jail; and they should be better than this.

I almost forgot, they were absolutely wilding.

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world -1 points 2 weeks ago

Who should train more? The women who sat in a closed off section of the store and got upset when they were not served?

[-] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

The people who are unnecessarily starting a fight they can’t win. All of his statements are directed to them.

I mean, it works out better for the rest of us that they’re bad at fighting, but it would serve their purposes better if they trained.

[-] MehBlah@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

No answer is no answer is no answer. You are rooting for the ones in the wrong. The trash who sat in a closed off section and got mad when rules applied to them.

I'm rooting for the employees who are working a job and having to deal with trash humans who are violent and thuggish. The ones who started the fight were the customers. No one else.

[-] AlDente@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago

He's rooting for the employees. Once again, you completely misunderstand who you're responding to and default to hostile behavior.

[-] thorhop@sopuli.xyz 1 points 2 weeks ago

Wanna feel old?

Cash me ouside, how bout dat?

[-] Dettweiler42@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 2 weeks ago
[-] Averagejoe@lemmy.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] MTZ@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] Averagejoe@lemmy.org 1 points 2 weeks ago

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

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

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 1 points 2 weeks ago

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 1 points 2 weeks ago

"You got a criminal background?"

"No"

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

[-] MTZ@lemmy.world 0 points 2 weeks ago

Waffle House is definitely like Springer.

[-] Remember_the_tooth@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago

Springer wishes it were Waffle House
