Denny's has the best prices. When you're poor as hell and you really need something to eat at 4 in the morning, there's nothing better than that $6 breakfast sandwich.
Honestly the only meal I can cook with any kind of success happens to be breakfast. And that's after years of eating screwed up omelets, burnt toast, and floppy, grease-soaked bacon. Sadly I am much better at eating food than I am at cooking it, which has contributed to my hobbit-like physique and overall geniality.
Oh yeah, and diabetes, too. Can't forget that.
When I was in my late teens and early twenties, the only place that stayed open 24 hours in my little town was Denny's. On Friday nights, my friends and I would pile in there after the comic shop closed and we would play Vampire the Masquerade and get free coffee and discounted everything else until the sun came up.
We were nerds, but nerds with good connections.
