    But I think it's a bit of a stretch to call themselves "international". :dayton: You might as well call yourself the "intergalactic" house of pancakes! BTW does anyone here on WF know anyone (or remember anyone) who calls pancakes "flap jacks?" :unsure: Flap jacks sounds like some kinky sex thing.

    Yeah, there's a rebuilt one down the street from me and we hit it from time to time. Love that place.

    I do remember when pancakes were called flap jacks. Haven't heard that in many years.

    I used to like I hop. However it is sort of a diabetic nightmare. However they had the best desert breakfast ever. They found ways to put anything sweet and candy related into pancakes and French toast. Then after you get your sugar infused flap jacks of diabetes you have your choice of syrups to pour over it. Also they give you the whole pot of coffee in a carafe so you do not need to wait for refills. You could get a hot chocolate which was pure chocolate sugar bliss.

    Ok there are probably reasons my body can no longer handle sugar properly anymore, and my nerves are frayed into flaming spasms. However having tasted the sweet bliss of ihop I know I lived life once.

    There is something to be said for leaving the whole pot of coffee at the table for you. :nautica:

    I'm not going out to eat on a Saturday or Sunday morning unless it completely ruins the rest of my plans for the day

    There's a Denny's over on the eastside that has a bar in the back and serves alcohol in the main room.

    I'm actually heading over there in a bit as I've got the kids today and I need to take a load of stuff over to a buddy's out in Northbend.

    People like IHOP? They just serve crap you can buy in the frozen food section of a Walmart.

    their French toast may be higher quality, but it has less sugar and fat. IHOP super infuses their food with ten times the sugar and fat of your standard breakfast place. This is why you take your children there after boring them into a religion coma after church on Sunday. The massive rush of glucose into the brain after hours of programming forms stronger memories and promotes a lack of rational disbelief in whatever stories were told to you during your slumber. This is also why many children have a cult like attachment to their childhood morning and after school cartoons into adult hood.

    It is theorized bronies secretly watched my little ponies as young boys and would bring sugary snacks and breakfast cereals into their basement viewing dens which is why they now reside primarily in their parents basement while still clutching their pastel pony merchandise and praying to lord schmooze for the annihilation of the haters. Or at least that is why I think I do it. I could just be an antisocial lazy good for nothing who likes playing with pink pony dolls and dressing up like a princess while eating junk food.

    A friend of mine just posted this from a Denny's. Apparently it's their sausage "mascot" but it looks more like one of Mr. Hankey's relatives. :lol:
