protein wisdom exhibits a kind of multicultural whimsy

For breakfast this morning I had a big plate of Belgian waffles, but just for kicks I decided to call them Peruvian waffles.  And there wasn’t a damn thing the hardcore nominalists could do about it.

    You’ve never met an envelope you couldn’t push, eh Jeff?

  2. gail says:

    Did you also call them “low carb”?

    I actually spent time reading that.  Figured it must be over my head.  Then, stunned by the fact that there were actually comments, I read the comments.  Now I’m actually posting a comment on your post about your breakfast. 

    My question is: do you have some kind of pact with Satan?

    I’ve been refusing to use maple syrup until the voters of Vermont got rid of that execrable socialist, Bernie Sanders.  All this time, I could have simply been calling it “freedom syrup” instead of using that artificial glop made out of corn grease. 

    You have opened my eyes, sir, if not my clogged arteries.

  5. Kazmin says:

    Technically, all waffles are Belgian.

    Of course, if you really believe, they can all be Peruvian.

  6. Michael says:

    I’ve been to Peru.  Sorry, there’s no such thing as a Peruvian waffle.  But they have the best potatoes on earth.  And Pisco Sours.

  7. Phinn says:

    I call my waffles “pancakes.”

    For a time, I thought about calling them “freedom cakes,” but decided against it.

  8. gail says:

    You should call them cow pancakes. Then nobody would try to take them from you.

  9. TallDave says:

    Oh, so now you’re a nominalistophobic, eh?

    Well, consider yourself delinked!!!!

  10. waffles, Peru & pacts with Satan.  the blogosphere: is there anything it can’t do?

  11. CraigC says:

    And, what about those dogs?

  12. Joe says:

    I’ve got to admire a man willing to take on the hardcore nominalists for breakfast. For lunch, I recommend the renamed freedom fries, and then, working your way up to … dinner ? Sauerbraten Pot roast with a nice NY state sparkling wine champagne.

    Free the language, man ! Power to the preverb !

    A nice trope with a bit of synedoche thrown in. Almost calls for a sonnet or perhaps you could muster a bit of cantillation?

  14. The Sanity Inspector says:

    Peruvian waffles, hmm?

    Then, I surmise that the white stuff on top isn’t powdered sugar.  Which would explain a lot…

  15. Scott P says:

    A much healthier choice than Pink Peruvian Flakes…

  16. Dave S. says:

    Nothing is ever good enough. 

    Always someone trying to change the world.  Can we not leave good enough alone, DAMMIT?

    Or was this for ‘The Children©®’?
