That's freakin' brilliant

okay I appreciate this so much because dang. me too. I have no better possible phrase to say it

Damn I’m sorry

Oh...

Oof

Christ... anyone who's lived in the South knows this is... just accurate

Those were the thickest places where the zombies were man. Duh lol

I love how she made a whole video about waffle House to justify her song for it😂

@@TsukiRaiki it's not the only part of "The South", naturally, Alabama, Mississippi, are as well to name a couple, but Georgia is probably one of the more commonly given examples of a "Southern" state in the US. Of course, if you're thinking on the country, not the US state, then yes, it's very much so not what I would think of as southern. If you're not familiar with the US and our general areas, there's "The North", which is generally just the states that didn't secede in our civil war, vs "The South" which is generally the states that did. The "North" breaks up into generally New England, which is the part that's East of the Great Lakes, and the "Midwest", which starts under the Great Lakes and stretches to slightly west of center of the continent. Yes, half of the Midwest is in the eastern half of the country. Don't ask us, we have no idea. Then you have the "West" and "Southwest", which is actually what you probably would guess the Midwest is, because it's the middle of the Western half and the southern half of that. And then there's the Pacific Northwest, that one actually makes sense, and just "California", which is in the Southwestern part of the country. The names of the regions of our country don't make any damn sense, I swear...

Maybe Walking Dead is fictional because Waffle House is real. Like, I legitimately can't imagine how many walkers it would take to overrun a Waffle House in full swing. And you know Rick, Darryl, and Michonne are going to be in there somewhere. There's literally a Darryl in every Waffle House in the a.m.

That is a top tier Waffle House story

Bro i think you and @bbybovine are talking about the same waffle house

@wendigostudios212 I thought so too lol

Where's it at? Bucket List!

Anywhere else this would be a tall tale, but for Waffle House, it's a Tuesday.

Wholesome comment made my day, I hope you and your child are doing well

It’s also a bit sus. Like, why are you all wanting waffles at 3 am? 🧐

As someone who used to work there, I agree

Also known as being "burger kinged"

The driver probably: "Hey, do you guys have a drive thru?" Waffle House employee: "No, you gotta come in the restaurant." The driver: "Okay."

Their patience deserves an award man

I've actually experienced 2 waffle houses being closed on multiple occasions before. the waffle houses in blacksburg and christiansburg VA are often closed simply because they dont get enough customers. Its really annoying actually.

@@twentysparrow1019 yeah, it can be, but those two seem to be different from other waffle houses in general though. never thought I'd see comparatively local waffle houses on the internet

​@@twentysparrow1019 Not surprising. The Waffle Houses are awful in Virginia.

thx gooby

sometimes with audience participation

u mean crack... because only blacks tear each other apart and destroy their local infrastructure

If the Colosseum had the winning combatant bring the audience their food afterwards they would still be in business.

@@simplykathrynrebeca to consider working in waffle house you gotta be somewhat insane.

That almost sounds intensional, like he was saving you from something worse

It really is. Either people are fighting or your waiter is just having the worst time ever. But any way, you’re getting Dinner and a Show.

After a night at a bar, my friends and I went to Waffle House at 3 am and saw people screaming at each other in the parking lot. We went inside quickly to get away from them and while we were ordering they came in all bloody and went to the bathrooms to wash it off. Then the cops came and asked us if we saw anything lol.

Nashville I had the most amazing experience it was strange like everyone knew I was Canadian and was acting on best behaviors

I am at that Waffle House right now

I am from Atlanta and this checks out, this is indeed just part of the experience

The safest work environment requirement:

cast iron pan gotta be in the top 3. defense and offense in one.

HAHAHA yea they take the ‘defend the waffle’ part of the job so seriously. I remember at my store we had so many issues that if the cops weren’t already present and someone stepped on our tiles, it was a part of your job to defend your store. Any weapon is free game. I miss it every day 😂

@@lilaculots those cheese egg skillets are no joke, and they are easily throwable for sure

They practically asked you if you would be able to become jackie chan if the situation called for it.

This comment is so wholesome. I love it.

What would the expectations be for employees during a disaster? Are the employees were paid well for it? Especially one like Katrina, since I'd assume their own homes and lives were badly affected by the hurricane as well. I'd be pissed if my house was flooded or worse, and I was expected to go to work at a fast food chain to 'be there for the community'. Who is there for the employees?

@@PutRandomNameHere Depends on management like anywhere else. If you can make it you are paid as long as you are there. It was extra but I don't thing anything wild but if you lost stuff our store pooled together to get stuff for people.

This is correct, as a former Waffle House Grill Operator. And it WAS wild. I'm convinced we used the little cast-iron skillets for the scrambled eggs and cheese just because they were handy in a fight. Those things were clutch.

I love an establishment that will give people second chances.

I disagree, waffle house at 4-5 in the morning, after the fights and thunder dome, when everyone leaves, it is the most quiet and surreal experience, a single hungover guy in the corner and a single worker. It's a whole form of zen

What’s crazy is I’ve never seen a fight at Waffle House and I go there so often 😭

no no you see giving people good wages to deal with shit work would mean they have to cut into profits. they can't do that. if it was a good job, it wouldn't be open during a hurricane.

Truly couldn't tell if it was a joke lol

@@savanna8898 I guess you go during the tamer hours lol

You, my friend need to tell me your entire life story, because this just intrigued me, and I did just smoke 😅

@@Softbee13 LOL waffle house really was a trip. one time an old lady had a seizure and threw up all over the lower bar area, fire fighters and ambulances were called. she was fine ultimately, and we literally only blocked off the booth that got the puke in it (i cleaned the puke 😭) the rest of the waffle house went about business as usually. literally people eating like 5 feet away from a seizing puking woman. and this happened on a weekend morning, and for those who don’t know; weekend mornings are BUSY for waffle house. to the point where most of them will have someone who’s only job is to stand at the door and take the ‘reservations’ as people come in and have to wait. they’ll also serve coffee to people waiting. so it just added to the chaos and people didn’t turn away or leave despite puke being all over the booth and floor. my waffle house was also held at gunpoint but it was during the night shift, so I was not there at the time. whoever did it fired a few shots in the ceiling and the last time I went there (years after this incident) the bullet holes were still there. last I heard, it was a coordinated inside job with one of the employees too. I don’t remember which one or if it was ever proven, I wasn’t super close to the night cooks because I rarely saw them.

@@brittanylikesmemes_ that’s insane thank you so much for sharing 😂😂 I’m glad everyone was safe tho that night geez!! And that the lady was okay too 😩😂😂

some other fun waffle house tidbits- the servers manually price the items on your tickets (and are expected to do it by knowing the prices by heart. like you are not suppose to use the menu to price your tickets because it ‘takes too much time’) and then they manually do the math to add in tax and all that. so if you notice that your regular order is always a different price, that’s probably because the server misremembered a price and did it wrong. I accidentally over charged and under charged people basically daily. they audit tickets every month or few months to see just how bad the price mess ups are, it’s nothing crazy and usually balances out for the most part. (like I would accidentally overcharge someone by $2, but then in the same day accidentally under charge by $2 so the company was like whatever). also if you’re a server or a cook you basically learn a second language. the cooks have to learn ways to ‘mark’ the plates before they cook while the server is calling (so like if I called an order of scrambled eggs with hash browns, they would set down a specific sized plate and put a tiny piece of hashbrown at the top to signify hash browns and then a particular sauce packet at the bottom facing a certain way to signify specifically scrambled eggs. this is a very bare bones overview) this is so they can look over at the plates they have set up, and remember exactly what they’re cooking. they even have marks for things like “no onions” and for specific cooks (like medium, rare, well done). different marks would be like different sauce packets meaning their own meat, or placement of the items on the plate meaning if it’s a meal or a burger or something. also it’s been years since I worked there so this is all from faded memory lol. then as a server you have to learn a specific way to ‘call out’ the orders so the cooks can mark the plates. you go in a certain order, and you use phrases and terms to shorthand the process. it’s all created to be very fast and efficient but it’s so stressful until it becomes like second nature lol. as a server you literally take a 3 full work day class where you just sit and memorize everything. it can be intense.

@@AIopekis inorder to get the peak experience, go between midnight and 5 in the morning

You definitely need to experience it in your life

If you haven't fought your own crackhead in waffle house parking lot in coming back from the club have you even Americaned? I think not 😂😂😂😂

That's cause we have Greggs instead *Remembers that iconic photo of a guy being arrested in front of a Greggs*

As someone from American who's never seen one, same

you are unironically correct, friend. welcome to anthropology 101.

@@sithdude2436 Same 🤷🏻‍♀️

Given that they're open around the clock, I don't see why they'd give someone the boot as long as the person in question is quiet and periodically ordering food. (I was once allowed to sleep overnight in a Denny's; the staff members were all really kind about my situation, which I will grant you was not a bet)

As a Floridian I can imagine.

I once went to a Waffle House at 1 a.m. after a live-action Rocky Horror Picture Show, our group fully dressed in gothic pinup regalia. While there adding extra flavor to the Waffley scene, we witnessed two groups of apparent rival prostitutes and their respective pimps having an rap insult battle that escalated to weave-ripping, all while either a drug deal or a foursome was going on in the men's bathroom. (Guys just kept going in there without any ever coming back out. It's a single stall restroom. I promise, I can imagine.

I'm from FL and my family spent one Christmas Day in an IHOP after checking me out from the psych ward

​@@psychotophatcat woahhhhhh, you got to tell us the rest Which prostitutes group came out on top? Does the pimp's rap fire? Did you participate in the foursome/drug deal? And how did the employees reacted to all this? Please tell us more about this surreal moment!!!!!!!!!!

@@zetharerey3761not better, but cheaper for sure.

Welcome to the US. Where the cost of healthcare will make you want to die.

​@@weineraustin7220kind of reminds me of a certain scene from South Beach tow, where Bernice got knocked two floors off of a garage, and she still didn't want to have to take an ambulance ride. I think she told what's his name"my Obamacare ain't kicked in yet" when he wanted her to go to the hospital.

Question: how good is the improvised weaponry in melee combat?

​@@Zanophane_GamingReally good for the tight quarters. Boiling grits or the ever-present pot of Lo-Melt make for excellent napalm, the dishes are really heavy and shatter well into long spear points, and there are bacon weights as well as handy little cast iron skillets. The one I worked at favored full-length heavy chef's knives, maybe 16", and also a steel about the length of your forearm that weighed maybe two pounds. But of course, the _real_ weapons are your regular customers. Maintain those, and any intruder will get a close look at what a zombie outbreak feels like.

@@MrBendylaw So what you're saying in that last sentence is basically: *_⚠You have alerted the horde!_*

@@Zanophane_Gaming Yep. On third shift, a lot of your clientele is at least partially wasted. So you make sure you take care of them, and insist on some basic ground rules, and you hook up a few key regulars with bigger hash browns, extra eggs in their scramble, whatever. They'll have your back if it gets crazy.

Waffle House: we’ll give you the skills you need.

@Ching Vang Lived on the west coast and southeast coast and I can tell you the only difference in Denys and Waffle House is that Waffle Houses are usually smaller, have a much more basic menu, are not as overpriced and the breakfast food is a little better but the sandwiches and lunch items at Denys are better. The drunken brawls go down in both and a lot depends on location. Plenty of sleepy dead Waffle Houses and Denys out there in the middle of the night but the ones near any club or bar scenes are like some kind of arena of drunken stupidity.

I used to live in Georgia(where there is a Waffle House)and now I live in California. I miss Waffle House man. Such an experience.

I'm in California and denny's is usually fairly busy after midnight

Once every couple months me and friends who work odd shifts will go to Waffle House together. Always a great time, and I always meet interesting folks.

As another Californian, I now really need to go to a Waffle House

We also need menthol cigarettes but dont deserve them 😂
