And I have a coworker that asks why I panic every time he mentions that he got some code from Gemini.
Is it weird, that I knew what a waffle stomp is before reading the post? Have I done too much internet?
When two completely separate sources collide to form a coherent end result I find myself amazed.
Essentially, 90% of what is being said in the text comes from a reddit thread where a user tells how his wife once scared him shitless by blurting out, while watching television, laughing histerically, she would regularly take a dump in the shower, then proceed to stomp the result down the drain. The user had been noticing the drains had been somewhat clogged lately and had made a passing remark about it to his wife.
The "waffle stomping" came from another user replying to the thread and I'm sincerely amazed how no references to "hot boxing" or "power bombing" are sprinkled in, as many users made references to how steam/moisture intensifies scents and smell, the reason which the wife had picked up the taste for scented candles.
I came into contact with this story through a podcast that extracts posts from various reddit subs.
To find a direct reference to it, here, through an AI allucination... I'm baffled.
Turning off the internet for today, folks.
I'll see myself out.
This is the source that's causing it. I think it's because Google is giving it high authority because it's coming from an edu domain: https://umsu.unimelb.edu.au/news/article/7797/2018-03-13-for-against-wafflestomping/#%3A~%3Atext=The+wafflestomp+derives+its+name+from+the%2Cdouche+as+the+French+affectionately+call+it.
Had a really bad nose bleed once in the shower.
I thought it was fine and sort of blew my nose a bit, and a huge clot came out. I had to waffle stomp it.
Any device to help would have been appreciated.
Belgians have been waffle stomping for a long time.
They should make a device that removes the need for waffle stomping. Like, maybe a separate fixture without a grille and with an aperture large enough to allow the solid loaf to pass straight through. Maybe integrate some kind of support to allow the user to comfortably assume and hold a squatting position. Oh, and a cleaning feature to wash the contents away.
Away with your snowflake wokery. Your dad waffle stomped. Your grandfather waffle stomped. What makes you so special??
They could even put a little shower inside that seperate fixture to wash away stubborn contents that refuse to evacuate from the host.
What is this fever dream nonsense, man. Get with the program, get stompin'!
I literally cant tell if this is edited, if Google is being dumb, or if people 200 years ago really used the term.
Given the "how to use a Belgian waffle maker" vid, I think this is a plausible hallucination - I bet the waffle was invented (or the word waffle started being used) in Belgium 200 years ago. Or maybe the Belgian waffle maker was invented 200 years ago?
From Wikipedia:
Florian Dacher formalized a recipe for the Brussels Waffle, the predecessor to American "Belgian" waffles, recording the recipe in 1842/43
Maybe that? Now I want waffles.
What I want to know is what the Dutch are doing exactly with their stroopwafel stomps.
We have a different kind of cookie that we name our most depraved rituals after, it looks like this.
