The Great Waffle House Famine of Michigan: A Tragicomedy in One Act
Ah, Michigan. The land of Great Lakes, stunning autumns, and... a shocking dearth of Waffle Houses. Yes, you read that right. In this, the year of our lord 2024, Michigan suffers from a peculiar and frankly un-American Waffle House shortage.
There are more Canadian Tuxedos at a Justin Bieber concert than there are Waffle Houses in the entire state. Michiganders, have you no shame? Is there some deep-seated fear of scattered, smothered, and covered hash browns that keeps this glorious institution at bay?
Tip: Watch for summary phrases — they give the gist.

Theories abound:
- Perhaps Big Auto lobbied Waffle House out, fearing the greasy goodness would sap Michiganders' work ethic.
- Maybe Vernor's Ginger Ale is so potent, it renders Waffle House's sweet tea obsolete.
- Or, perhaps, there's a secret society of pasty-eating Yoopers guarding the state border, fending off any Waffle House incursions with the ferocity of a wolverine protecting its young.
The Fallout: What It Means to Be Waffle-less
QuickTip: Check if a section answers your question.
Life without Waffle House is a harsh reality, my friends. Here's what Michiganders are missing:
 |
- The 24/7 Sanctuary: Where else can you get a perfectly acceptable breakfast at 3 am after a particularly spirited bonfire (or, ahem, a productive night shift)?
- The Waffle House Index: This ingenious social barometer lets you gauge the severity of a situation based on the Waffle House clientele. Is it just a few regulars nursing lukewarm coffee? Business as usual. Is it a full house with flickering lights and syrup-stained floors? You might be in for a wild ride.
- The Waitress with the Side-Eye: A stoic guardian of the griddle, these seasoned veterans have seen it all and dispense wisdom alongside waffles.
But Fear Not, Fellow Michiganders! There is Hope!
Tip: Slow down at important lists or bullet points.
While the situation is dire, there are glimmers on the horizon. The internet hums with rumors of a proposed "Great Lakes Waffle House Expansion," and who are we to deny destiny? Perhaps you, yes YOU, can be the Waffle House whisperer, the one to bring this glorious breakfast haven to Michigan!
