    I herewith announce that from now on I will downvote any post with a brand logo, shitpost or not. Why do you advertise for your slavers and maintainers?

      I’ve never been in a waffle house, nor do I even know what it is (I’m assuming it’s a breakfast restaurant but I have no idea) and I knew that was the answer. It has a reputation larger than its business.

        It’s a restaurant chain that is almost always open to the point that there are some locations that didn’t even have locks on their doors until covid forced them to shit down.

        If the power goes out, they switch to a gas only menu. If gas goes out, they switch to an electric only menu.

        The food is not great, but very often the only option in a given town in the middle of the night. Sometimes, it’s what you need.

          I’ve also never been there but I’ve heard some people get teleported there. So maybe one day I’ll be in one.

          However, I’ve been to quite a few Pannekoekenhuizen!

      It’s not even close. Maybe Carnival Cruises could compete, but none of these restaurants can compete at Waffle House’s level.

        Carnival could only compete if they were given enough time to spread noro to everyone else.

        Carnivalmight only win because each ship has so many employees, but they’d take serious casualties on the way.

        If it was an equal number of employees from each, Waffle House, hands down.

    How did that other post describe it…?

    “A cathedral of syrup and violence”

    Waffle House, hands down.

      Yep. Waffle House, and it’s not even close. Only question here is who will come in 2nd place.

    McDonald’s if the customer’s name was Luigi.

    If not, whoever came from Aldi would probably hide, wait it out and take out the remaining Waffle House customer from behind while they’re hyperventilating.

    Oh please, this is no contest. Only one of these is literally a disaster index metric. Waffle House will throw down.

    Wallyworld fights Target, both show up well equiped but its cheap and breaks after a few swings.

    The fast foods are eyeing eachother up like a western stand off (Popeyes brought a huge knife).

    All the others are the extras like the fight scene from Anchor man.

    Waffle House is the only one left standing after throwing Dollar General through a plate glass window and walks away doing a “cool dudes dont look at explosions” bit (going to assume its a grease fire).

    If it were one employee from each, it’s Waffle House. No contest.

    One customer changes things a lot. I think it’s probably still Waffle House that takes it, but Popeyes and WalMart are in the running.

    People are saying Waffle House but Popeye’s is the underdog no one saw coming.

    And the kid from Albertson’s is dead before she even steps into the fight.

      I’m with you on Popeyes. There’s a Popeyes in a dangerous part of town that I do not fuck with.

      Really boils down to urban vs rural street fighting. I go with urban, but I’ve got a bias.
