Yeah, how did this not come up?

Sounds like SOMEONE wants to have sex with some teenagers…

The point of the movie was the hole, dude.

Wes Anderson's Alive

Gene Hackman does whatever the fuck he wants.

25th Hour?

Good point. The Joy of Cooking mentions only wiping waffle irons down with a damp cloth. I think it even eschews soap.

America makes a lot more sense once you realize it owes its existence a bunch of rich Massholes who got all buzzed and fighty.

If your waffles are getting stuck, you're not letting them cook long enough. I mean, the batter is mostly butter, right? Let the waffle iron stay closed until steam stops coming out of it.
