Well, our servers are back up, after being out since 9:00. I didn't get into work until 10:45, and they went up briefly from 11:05 to 11:20 so I was able to get some work done before they crashed again, but at least I had a new book in my purse I could read at my desk until we had access restored. I have to stay until around 7:00, so I just hope I can continue to use the computer until then.
Reavers ain't men. Or they forgot how to be. Now they're just nothing. They got out to the edge of the galaxy, to that place of nothing, and that's what they became.

I don't understand why the pancakes have to have chocolate chips. Chocolate dipped pancakes would be waaaay more disgusting.
Tangent: I discovered that when I was in Montreal that plain yogurt mixed with maple syrup is nummy on pancakes and prevents that pancake sogginess I hate.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's the chocolate chips in the pancake that make it a no. One of my favorite things in the world is a waffle with bacon embedded right in the batter, and syrup - YUM!, and I'd be smooshing them together anyway.
With chocolate, though?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can't tell what I think about that. I'd definitely try it at a restaurant, but am skeptical about the frozen pre-fab variety. But I like frozen corndogs, so what does that tell you? Although, my one quibble with the Morningstar corndogs is that the corn part is too sweet. HMMMM. Am confused.

It's the chocolate chips that make it nasty to me. They do not belong in my pancakes. Or sausage.

My OTP when it comes to pancakes is sour cream and cinnamon. Yum. Chocolate chips only belong in cookies.

t's the chocolate chips in the pancake that make it a no.
Not the fact that's it's a frozen microwaveable Jimmy Dean pancake in the first place?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
What they all said. If it weren't "chocolate chip flavored", I might be more likely to try it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

My experience with microwaveable pancakes is they often end up dry and hard. But maybe the sausage juice would prevent that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Pancakes are about the only place I do like chocolate chips.
