For all of us who have frequented Waffle Houses at 2 am- There are reasons why the local police send an officer to stand guard at the door. People are shitfaced, belligerent, and cheap/hungry motherfuckers.

“whacking each other with crutches and sweet potatoes.”

I live in a smallish town in East Tennessee and I have seen some crazy ass fights at the Waffle House around 2 AM. Shit gets insane real quick.

National Guard do not live on base. In Kentucky they can carry their legal firearm while at a military office or installation: http://m.wave3.com/wave/pm_/conte…. Therefore, totally possible he had his firearm on him coming off of duty.

At 2 am in Waffle House, there are typically 2-3 employees. It’s my opinion that under any circumstances, they should be able to request that customers not being in weapons. I worked overnight at several Waffle Houses and it’s hard to not feel vulnerable in a well-lit, glass box alongside dark highways.

There are very few reasons why an armed service member would be off base/post. Going to Waffle House is not a legitimate reason.

“ The second item not reported accurately was the time the most recent incident occurred, 2AM. We have associates who have to make snap decisions on our third shifts to provide for their own safety and the safety of our customers.”

I’m confused by the notion that Waffle House gets any business that isn’t between the hours of 11 PM and 6 AM.

* Law-enforcement officers are typically exempted from this policy, although I struggle to understand the argument that members of the Army National Guard count as “law-enforcement officers.”

He loves the sound of his own voice sOoOoOo much that he rarely thinks before he speaks, and what comes out is pretentious nonsense.

I’m so disappointed that he’s turned out to be such a fucking clueless douche.I liked him so much.

Matt Damon, stop talking. Just stop.

I terms of fast food chicken it is wooooooorlds better than what is offered by McD’s, BK, etc. the chicken is actually whole peices of chicken that actually tastes like chicken, not sadness and regret.

Not only that, but you can’t even enter the contest as a homeless person because you can’t prove you live in the zip code where you usually sleep on the sidewalk.

Is it just me, or is this a bit insensitive? You spend a night outside, as some sort of challenge for a year’s worth of free food? In New York? Which, like all major cities, has a substantial homeless population?

They misspelled bourgeoisie.

My dream reception is an open bar with a ton of cheese, fruit and charcuterie platters. I doubt anyone will miss the ubiquitous dry chicken breast and steamed vegetable medley.

You definitely still pay per person for a buffet.

Really heavy food isn’t a great idea (Thanksgiving effect). Not to mention that eating big greasy items can lead to spillage and guests who get all dolled up most likely won’t appreciate eating at a food court.

The last wedding I went to was all buffet and even had a sliders station. Boom! Problem solved.
