Brunch: One Meal to rule them all. Once upon a time, there was (probably) a person who woke up too late for breakfast and thought of the genius idea of combining both the powers of breakfast and lunch into one powerhouse meal full of eggs, pancakes, hash browns, coffee, and alcohol. The beauty of brunch is there's no judgement. Eat breakfast past noon. Start treating yourself to alcohol in the ear...

Initiating Top 5 Protocol 0010101. Beep boop beep! Some of the most memorable characters in fiction are machines.
