They aren’t selling hope. They are selling answers to personal hunger, for profit. You can buy hope nearly anywhere, but it won’t come with butter and syrup, just empty promises.
But…..doesn’t IHOP already make the world better? I mean, awesome buttermilk pancakes and not one, not one, but FOUR kinds of syrup to put on them? I like to get a meal where you get two pancakes, then I cut the stack in half, making four pieces. And then I have each piece with a different syrup. They’re all yummy. Oh, and don’t forget pumpkin pancakes! Now those are just good with the butter pecan syrup!
By a strange coincidence, we are going to IHOP for breakfast this morning. You all are making me really hungry. IHOPe it’s good (and things get better in the world).
Every civilization since the beginning of our historical knowledge has risen and fallen like a political souffle people have made too much noise around. It’s not about religion; it’s about greed, territoriality, and the attempt of some to subjugate others to their will. Hate, prejudice, mass murders, slavery, rampant cruelty—these simply support the above. We can do better as a species, but so far we haven’t been able to balance sanity with human animal urges. God, a Presence which surely exists, has nothing to do with it, except that, whatever we ask for and accept , we get . We are given the tool of Karma, but we misuse it.
Oh, Pig! I’d say you wear your emotions on your sleeve, if you had sleeves. But you don’t. so instead you deface other people’s property and tell yourself you’ve done a Good Thing.

They’re on the right track. Maple syrup and whipped cream always makes things better.

If this were Mormon themed, the IHOP would then be altered to say “-e they call me on a mission” (Lee Cox would know what I mean).

I’m not a big pancake fan, but that place does make a great breakfast of sausage, eggs, biscuits and gravy.
I understand though that IHOSEBAG wouldn’t be a very good name for a restaurant.

If you keep vandalizing storefronts, Pig, you’re going to get busted by an ICOP!

Sorry, Pig – that was the previous administration. The current administration’s motto appears to be “Just Give Up.”

Does Pastis get paid for advertising the restaurant chain? Or does he get sued?

Do you mean to tell me that no one saw that? In an open restaurant? And here I thought Pig was the idiot of the group. Camouflage, perhaps?
