Saturday Night Live did a skit about this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYNFqmu2toI
That was funny and shockingly accurate.
Waffle House is for lovers too:

If you work there and can't get a day off to get married, apparently, they're cool enough to let you hold your ceremony in the parking lot!

Didn’t I read once that FEMA has an official “Waffle house indicator” where they track WH closures to estimate the impact of hurricanes and such?
It's the first link in zer00eyz's comment. :-)

A friend and I Walked into Waffle House at 3am after I was released from the ER. My shirt was blood stained and half my face was bandaged up and it solicited pretty much no reaction from the staff or anyone else.

Waffle House goes from nice to war zone and back again just about every day. It never closes, never... If a Waffle House is closed you better have a boat or a gun cause what ever comes next will likely require one or both.
