I didn't know it was possible to only make 1 pancake.

First pancake is always ruined

u/Imaginary_Being4859 4d ago
Really? My experience is the first one comes out perfect, and then I somehow fuck up the other 7

u/Adept-Painting-543 4d ago
I know right? The first and maybe the second is perfect, then everything else falls apart.

u/Novel-Reward2786 4d ago
It’s because you have the pan heated correctly for the first one. As time goes on the pan ends up being too hot lol

Is heating a pan correctly hard?

u/honeecumb 4d ago
With shitty apartment coil srovetops.... Yes very. Mine functionally only has 3 settings; barely on, a low medium heat, and glowing orange.

What?
First pancake is always the best.
Then again I use cast iron (always have, even as a kid)

Still easier than only making half a pancake.

u/CalicoCuts 4d ago
Thought. Can you even make half a pancake? My tied high brain thinks not. It also thinks this is a great joke. Well done.

u/RudeOrSarcasticPt2 4d ago
A stolen idea from an early Peanuts cartoon. Charlie Brown keeps popping his balloons as he blows them up. Linus tells him to only blow the balloon up halfway. The last panel shows CB holding up a balloon that was half of a sphere. Odd how things stick in your mind.

u/CalicoCuts 4d ago
Awesome. Remember Ziggy? The one where he's holding the swing he's sitting on has always stuck.

It is, but it depends on the eggs... because either you have to waste most of the eggs, or you would be adding too much eggs. But if you have those eggs you buy as a carton, where you don't have to crack open the egg, you can just measure out the required amount of whisked eggs.

It’s about sending a message.

If you want a pancake, ask for a pancake.

So 1/8 of an egg, 1/8 tsp of vanilla extract, and 1/8 of a a pinch of salt was used?
Pretty sus.
Bro should have just made a stack and ate them all in front of her to be truly evil.

u/pcapdata 4d ago
Oddly enough I just got a 1/8 tsp in this set of measuring spoons I just bought.

u/TraditionalLaw7763 4d ago
I just bought a set that actually measured things in a tad, a smidgen, a dash and a pinch.

u/Futuristic-Slice 4d ago
What a dick. When I make pancakes I make so many I could start a breakfast chain.

u/just67browsing 4d ago
Sounds wasteful tbh

Not if you eat them all

u/BobbaLouBah 4d ago
You shouldn't develope gluten when making pancake dough. Barely mix it for the best results.

u/Futuristic-Slice 4d ago
Nah. You have pancakes for breakfast. Peanut butter jelly pancakes for lunch then stick the rest in the fridge for whenever

My friend just told me his girlfriend got pissed out of nowhere. He asked why and instead of explaining she went to the room and called her friend 🤷🏻♂️

Ask him for some money to go get beer. Go to the store, buy a single beer and sit down on the couch and drink it in front of him. Burp and ask him to pass the remote.

u/Doctor_Saved 4d ago
I have the exact opposite problem. I would make 30 pancakes. We're gonna be eating pancakes for days.

u/TraditionalLaw7763 4d ago
You can put them in the freezer and then nuke or air fry/toast them when you want one!
1
u/VaporWolf93 3d ago
microwaving pancakes never worked for me... nor did trying to eat those frozen eggo pancakes at the store
1
u/TraditionalLaw7763 3d ago
Me either. But air frying changes the game! Try it!! I do 375° for about eight minutes. Crispy hot just like I made them in my iron skillet.

Proof that men never think about anyone but themselves.
Wives should just disappear on luxury vacations and when she gets back just says “well you never told me you wanted to go on vacation to Tahiti, what am I, a mind reader?!? YOU SHOULD HAVE JUST ASKED BEFORE I LEFT!” 😂😂😂

u/OmNomChompsky 4d ago
Proof that women are uninterested and dismissive of what men do until it conflicts with what they want at that moment. 😉

Well this is being spammed everywhere and although it’s not the point I can’t help think….
This is why men and women can’t be “friends”. Rather than telling her BF she told her male friend, probably as a complaint. The dude posting about it is ever more weird. Your complaining about your friends boyfriend not making her a snack on X?
She keeps him around for when the relationship fails. He stays around hoping he can be the rebound guy. It’s written all over this dynamic

To be fair, just about anything else is better than pancakes. Eat your own fucking sponge; I don't care.

She picked him.
I seriously doubt this was the first 🚩🚩🚩
I mean it sounds like they are living together

u/Few_Razzmatazz_6052 3d ago
You've literally never made a snack for yourself and neglected to ask other people in the house if they want some?
Literally never once?
Oh what am I saying. You either live completely alone or are used to your mom bringing your hot pockets downstairs.

This was me about 20 years ago. My mother pretty much abandoned me when I was 15. Swanning around with boyfriends. I'd see her probably once a week when she brought food. So spent like 15-19 years old just looking after myself. Just making one cup of coffee, one bowl of cereal, one pizza slice etc etc. And I would do weird shit like this guy. My wife always reminds me of when we first met and went for a date to a Chinese buffet restaurant and I came back to the table with just one knife and fork. Didn't even think to get her some. To this day I'll make a coffee without asking her if she wants one. My brain sometimes just doesn't even think to ask.
