the rules of waffle house
1. give 0 ***** . employees and patrons alike
2. the cook will be high on meth at all times. dont worry your waffles and hash browns will still be delicious. this makes them more productive.
3. if you enter a waffle house after 12am sober and look like an undercover cop, you will be promptly asked to leave.
4. there will be at least one vietnam war vet drinking coffee until 5am every night.
5. if you play any of the waffle house theme music on the juke-box, your food will contain traces of spit and/or urine.
6. if the wait staff messes up do not get angry. they are probably just as drunk and/or high as you.
7. weird **** is gonna happen. you are at a waffle house at 3am after the local theater let out its weekly "rocky horror picture show" viewing party, what the hell did you expect?
I used to live in Illinois for a long while, and there is not a single Waffle House in the entire state, as far as I know. So whenever I would leave to go out of state somewhere, and would pass by one, I was always a happy man. Breakfast at any time is great.
