“Waffle House implies the existence of a Waffle Senate”

Waffle House is an American restaurant chain. There is no Waffle Senate, but there are jokes.

Am a large fan of Waffle House, but have always wondered why their food is good, but waffles are not.

Waffle House needs to cut out this thoughts and prayers bullshit and actually pass some legislation. Waffle Senate too.

If there’s a Waffle House there must be a Waffle Senate

It’s not up to the Waffle House. The power is reserved by the Waffle Senate and the Waffle Senate alone.

Republicans like Graham, Capito and Collins said they’d look at going above $10. Graham is looking at a proposal from Waffle House to get to $15 over 6-7 years
“It is a more durable solution if it’s 60 votes,” said D Sen. Coons, who is beginning to talk to Republicans

Technically you are impeached by the Waffle House and convicted by the Waffle Senate. The founders modeled this after the roles of the lower and upper houses of IHOP

You often hear about the Waffle House, but never about the Waffle Senate. I guess Waffle is unicameral.
