Actually you’re right. The little lower case “b” tells you the pronounce the word softly or quietly.

Woooowwwww! Black Angus ground beef! Just like the ‘specialty’ burgers that McDonalds and BK have! IHOP is going upscale!

And McDonalds has gone to a 24/7 breakfast menu. It is hard as hell for any fast food joint to make it.

Can I ask why is this a story?

Or maybe the b is silent. Or pronounced like a soft e.

Yeah, that’s it.

It’s name translates to the “quiet or soft indicator”.

I understand that, but why is that news on a political site? I can see it being the talk of America’s marketing media, but not it’s political media.

At least they didn’t unveil a new restaurant logo that looks like a turd.

So there’s that.

I figured they were changing their name to “International House of Breakfast,” which would be totally reasonable expansion of their wheelhouse, but no(t yet).

Adding burgers isn’t going to make me patronize them more. You know what would? If their booths didn’t all feel sticky. I might give them more of a chance then.

Faux News has been all over this stoking anger for the past like 2 weeks or something. Seriously. I have to imagine it’s because their target audience is largely elderly fucktards who spend all kinds of time at IHOP and Denny’s and OMFG IHOP just messed with their entire fucking world…“change…CHANGE…AAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!! MUST NOT ACCEPT CHANGE!!!”

Almost makes me wonder how much we could get them (including Faux News’ cuck bobbleheads) to flip out by having Denny’s make an announcement that they would no longer be providing “flesh” colored crayons for their placemat games because it’s racist to assume that all flesh is that sickly pinkish color you can barely see on white paper anyway.

Well unless they invest in kevlar outfits Waffle House is too dangerous.

True…although you’d think they’d be all over the waffles, especially if WH started offering a Breendock Breakfast.
