Easton's Everyday Eats
Easton Weatherby

Welcome, readers, to 'The Randomness Column'. In this issue, we’ll focus on the topic of 'Easton’s Everyday Eats'. It has been my duty this past month to compile a report of people’s opinions on random things. Coinciding with our topic for this month, I have been interviewing several students and professors on their thoughts about chocolate pancakes. Whether they have any merit as a suitable breakfast food, if they can be used as weapons in times of distress, or even if they have dire implications for the future of our youth, I, Easton Michael Weatherby, dove into the Ravenclaw Common Room to find out more.

Fellow first-year Ravenclaw Alissa Kirby stated, when asked about her feelings regarding chocolate pancakes, “[They are] … THE AWESOMENESS! Seriously.” She further commented, “They kick [butt]. Why did you want to know? That is really random," to which I replied that it was all the more suitable for The Randomness Column!

After several minutes of laughing out loud in the Ravenclaw Common Room, another group of students also gave me their thoughts on the breakfast dish. “My roommate,” said fifth-year Ravenclaw Prefect Leora Lobel, “has made…pancakes [with several condiments] this past weekend. Plain came first, chocolate was second.” Cassandra Lobiesk, sixth-year Ravenclaw prefect and one of Leora’s good friends, never quite got the chance to comment due to an uncontrollable fit of laughter that rendered her completely oblivious to the question.

Thankfully, Tyr Fenris was able to describe his views and ultimately save the day. “Chocolate pancakes?” asked the First Year Ravenclaw. “[A] 7/10 … because pancakes are 5 and chocolate is +2.”

Meanwhile, back in HOL’s main IRC channel, professors and students from Hufflepuff were more than willing to talk about the randomness of chocolate pancakes. In fact, it became a five-minute discussion as new people started logging on. Professor Stargazer, overenthusiastic at the thought of being interviewed, said, “Oh, chocolate pancakes are yummy!” Another Hufflepuff, first-year David Keebler, had unfortunately never had the chance to sample pancakes with chocolate, as he does not like pancakes very much. Adelline Aldridge, a second-year Hufflepuff, refused to comment on the subject. Last, but most certainly not least, fifth-year Hufflepuff Prefect Tarma Black said, “Um, wouldn’t they be kinda gooey?” I suppose that, even in her slightly confused state during the interview, she was right. However, she continued, adding, “I’d rather have regular pancakes dripping with butter and maple syrup [with] semi-sweet chocolate on the side.”

Stay tuned next month for 'Easton’s Ever-Energetic Exaltations', in which I explore the growing problem that is causing trouble for all of us. Library bookshelves are being disarranged, professors are arriving to their classes several hours late due to jinxed timetables, and – to top it all off – three students have already gone missing.

The flying pink elephants may be coming after YOU next.
