2. Shit!
Denny's doesn't even have real syrup, they use Aunt Jemima and that shit's terrible. Who'd get it fight over that swill. When I go to Denny's, I got to bring my own Connecticut Grade-B Dark.

6. America's test kitchen on maple syrup
"Americans love syrup, spending more than $450 million a year on it in supermarkets alone, with pancake syrup vastly outselling real maple syrup. While the two types look alike, and both taste sweet, the similarity ends there. Maple syrup is simply tree sap that has been boiled to reduce its water content and concentrate its sugar. As the sap boils down, it caramelizes and develops a characteristic maple flavor and golden brown color. Pancake syrup, on the other hand, is a manufactured mix of high-fructose corn syrup and other ingredients engineered to taste like maple."

3. Yes, what Rug said - that's why I love the Lounge! Wussy, wimpy, slappy
girl fight. Now that girl's butt thong is all over the interwebs.

5. I wasn't laughing, but do agree it is sad.
I know! It's the GOP's fault. They've made everyone over-the-top angry

It might be funny, it might not be. But, I'm not going to let that abomination of a layout load on my machine.

9. There's a Denny's in the same strip mall where my gym is, and usually
every morning at around 4:30 when I arrive, there's something going on.

Yeah, this is Vegas, so lots of it deals with financial transactions of a sexual nature and cops usually show up.

13. According to The Smoking Gun, the brawl was not about syrup...

FEBRUARY 23--Despite reports that a wild melee early Sunday at a Denny’s in Massachsetts was triggered by a dispute over maple syrup, a police report indicates that the combatants had earlier been involved in road rage incidents while en route to the eatery from a Chicopee sports bar.
