National Pancake Day, A Requiem

This dreary tuesday morning I dragged my ass out of bed, let the dogs out, and had just rubbed the sleep out of my eyes when I remembered "HOLY SHIT, FREE PANCAKES TODAY!! YESSSSSSS" I ran down the street in my stocking pjs like a kid on christmas morning and was greeted at IHOP's doors by magical pixies who poured syrup and magic on my shortstack.

But seriously...

I called Tiffany on monday night and was all:

me "Hey bitches, wanna go get some free pancakes?"
tiff "Um ok, what time"
me "7:30 bro"
tiff "Ugh. fuck that shit yo'. But sure. 7:30"
me "Sweeeeeeeeet"

Maybe a little more refined, but that was the long-shortstack of that conversation. (see what I just did there? pun gold.)

For those of you who are now confused and live under a rock, IHOP celebrated National Pancake Day by giving away a free shortstack of pancakes per customer. Yup, free. And you missed it.



Now, IHOP is by no means a fantabulous place for breakfast or any other meal, but they're ok. They're a chain, and you can only expect so much from them (mediocrity comes to mind first) but FREE FUCKING PANCAKES PEOPLE! It's really hard to screw up a pancake, unless you're the Sunnyside Cafe. In yo' face Sunnyside. So for a free breakfast, it was pretty good. And free.


Did I mention free?

  1. IHOP is one notch above Denny's. I was however, as a child, a member of the IHOP "pancake club."

    I just stumbled upon your blog. Very funny! Glad I found it. If you don't mind, I'm going to tag along!
    good job!

  2. If by a notch above you mean the laws of physics are bent and that one notch is on the same level as the previous notch, then yes.

    But, um, Pancakes. For Free. I rest my case. (because we're arguing I guess?)

    Anywho... Welcome to the party, Pattycakes. Do you mind if I call you Pattycakes? Too late. Pattycakes it is.

    P.S. I wonder if it's too late for me to join the pancake club? I'll let you know how the initiation goes.
