I'm dying to know what he says to the robber,
Maybe criticism about his choice of firearm? Or even a Seinfeldian offtopic rant about robberies in abstract?

So there's a goon who's a hurricane hunter, and he was flying around inside Dorian today.

Definitely not my favorite hurricane at the moment. Took some big hits today, it’s intensifying still, pressure was like 913 mb when we were in it. Some very strong updrafts in the eye wall, we were gaining like 2k feet every time we went through, which is quite uncomfortable. Lots of positive and negative g’s going on and off quickly as we fight to keep level and on airspeed.

We wound up evacuating the plane to New Orleans since we are worried we wouldn’t be able to get out of our home field with some early strong winds coming off of this thing. Still flying balls early so only a few beers and then off to bed.

To the point where... "the Waffle House Index is an informal metric used by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to determine the effect of a storm and the likely scale of assistance required for disaster recovery."

On the flipside they also are providing food to emergency teams and citizens who may not have food access otherwise in a disaster area so it's really part of being in a community?

Yeah and they actually don't require anyone to come, either.

I grant that wage slavery exists and that some local management may not play by the rules.

Waffle House is one of the better companies, I say, damning it with faint praise.

Also you never know how good a hot meal is until you’ve lost power for 3 days and have only cold canned meat and soup for meals. A local Chinese place used a generator to reopen as soon as Irma passed and began selling hot food. There’s a palpable sense of relief and joy to going from a powerless stove and microwave to having a huge steaming plate of sliced pork and fried rice.

Keep in mind that they’re not making people operate during the disaster. Nobody is manning the building during 125 MPH winds in case a family of four crashes their SUV into the window trying to evacuate. They close when it’s dangerous and reopen to provide food once they can.

I ate their once in Georgia somewhere on my holiday to the US and it was great - I've never eaten at a place like it here in Australia. When I mentioned it to some US locals I caught up with later they acted like I was an idiot. I guess the novelty factor counts for a lot?

The only appropriate time for eating at a Waffle House is black out drunk at 3am. Even then you will regret it.

Back when I did 911 we were grateful for the Waffle House in our jurisdiction because it was a reliable generator of late night fistfights and stabbings. :cop:

The people who poo poo on Waffle House are the same people that bring unseasoned potato salad to the pot luck.

Waffle House is great for when you need sustenance after drinking all night.

The most basic indicators of enjoying a meal are salt and fat. Waffle House is a pure embodiment of that mentality.
