Thank you for your service.

If the finest dining in an area is a McDonald's, I just skip a meal.

This has been true for over thirty years but most people sadly have never heard of them.

I'm still not getting it. Are you saying intellectual disabilities, formerly known as mental retardation, were previously frequently misdiagnosed? I can't imagine that's what you're suggesting because I don't see how that makes sense here. I'm confused. Halp.

Meta: the post itself is mildly infuriating.

It's like overzeetop said, it's a ring with a split on one end and a springed handle on the other. It slides into grooves on the top and bottom sides of the griddle.

When the waffle is done, you gently squeeze it to get it out of the groove, in the progress gripping onto the waffle, then the ring portion will separate slightly when you let go. It's non-stick so the waffle typically just falls out.

I took a picture of mine. Don't judge, we haven't run the dishwasher yet.

We've tried dough but it can be a little tricky. You need enough dough that it'll press together when you close the unit, but not so much that it squeezes the fillings out. It's a pretty narrow volume window. We've made pizza waffles using standard waffle batter with added fresh basil and Parmesan and mozzarella cheese plus pizza toppings in the middle and that worked great.

It basically makes a thick waffle, thick enough where it has room to encapsulate fillings too. The maker is like your standard waffle maker but there's a removable spacer with a handle between the sides. For these waffles, you put in about half a cup of batter, add your fillings, then add another half cup on top of it. Then you close the maker and flip it over.

After it cooks, you use the removable spacer to remove the waffle and release it onto a plate. I attached a picture I snagged off the Internet so you can see what I'm talking about.

We've had ours for a couple of years. I got it as a drunken impulse buy, so drunk me surprised sober me when it showed up. It has been pretty awesome. One of my favorites is plain waffle batter filled with fruit pie filling, topped with maple syrup and whipped cream.

You're spot on. I only eat one meal a day and this was Sunday brunch. It's about 800 calories per waffle, nearly 1000 if you add sausage.

I only pull up Quora when I want to know the most common wrong answers to questions.

Yowza! That's a lot of easily disproven misinformation. You do realize you're on the Internet, right? You can actually look up the things you're claiming and verify they're not true.

The motherfuckers monetized cetaceans!

Yet Smashmouth never ate the eggs...

I'm guessing because he's horribly incompetent. I did a cursory Google search and the press is not good. There's even a change.org petition to get him to vacate his position.

Especially the kind that doesn't actually contain any ginger.

I just checked my old elementary school online. Nearly 40 years later, the same temporary buildings I had class in are still there.

You're generous with your potato allotment, I think that was a one tater comment at most.

And Pugmire!

This picture caused me to unintentionally groan aloud. It's like nails on a chalkboard.

This kind of word jumble is why I love languages. There's so often interesting history tied up in the etymology of a word or, like this, it's just insanity.
