Not entirely related but found this interesting:
“The Waffle House Index is a metric named after the ubiquitous Southern US restaurant chain Waffle House known for its 24-hour, 365-day service.”
“It’s a useful metric to determine the severity of a storm and the likely scale of assistance required for disaster recovery”
Yeah it’s Nathan for you. In this episode he goes to a food place that always has really long lines and proposes they let people with a really good reason cut the line. The guy on the right made up an excuse to cut the line, so they told him he was the 1000th customer and he won a prize (can’t remember exactly what it was, but it was to get him out on the boat), then they had a fake family shame him once he was out on the boat.
