What Am I?

I have eyes but I can’t see
I have skin but I can’t feel anything
I can be sweet but I’m not a piece of candy
I can be baked but I’m not a cake
I am best prepared in a microwave

False. He loves one-eye Texas stack

[–] PeelerSheila@aussie.zone 6 points 1 year ago (3 children)

I've been intrigued by the whole "one eye Texas stack" thing so I googled "one eye Texas stack" and the first thing that came up was "Can you drive with one eye in Texas?"

[–] anotherspringchicken@aussie.zone 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I reckon your chances of having a stack would probably increase if you did, so there’s that

I have no idea what it is. Sometimes I refer to this fun list. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diner_lingo

Pancakes, breakfast sausage, maple, butter, and a sunny side up egg. At least according to Heinlein, who may have mislead me…

[–] useless_modern_god@aussie.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Yeah im happy to be mislead by Heinlein.
