So this was part of a much bigger discussion and turned out in reality to be mostly due to some unaddressed mental health issues. But on the tail end of an argument, y'know when you're starting to talk nice again and resolve things, I said something like it's okay, sometimes you're just a sad pancake. She burst into tears because she wanted to be a waffle. Hormones and mental health are wild, y'all.

Your comment is great, so I told my partner about it. He asked the cat if she was a wɑffle or a pɑncɑke. I said pɑncɑke, because she's a good sleepy circle. Now we're arguing whether waffles should be squares or circles.

Hm, round. To fit the plate.

Square, because otherwise the dimples wouldn't be uniform.

Also, square plates are better.

I've not personally had the benefit of owning square plates, mostly as I think all my dishes have been second hand. That said, they would stand up in the dish drainer much better. No rolling around. You win lol

mostly due to some unaddressed mental health issues.

I expect all the stories to be this. Why am I in this thread??
