Man, yesterday I was fired, failed a test, was rear-ended, and got a parking ticket... but today I feasted on chocolaty pity pancakes made from scratch! Thanks, mom!
In the squirrels community, pancaking is a type of physical form of relaxation. It's when a squirrel is so relaxed that it will lay down on it's stomach with it's back legs flat out and just lay there all content. It's called pancaking because of the way they seem to become as flat as a pancake during this activity.
"It's so cute how Hermione loves to pancake on top of my head!"
Because words are hard, pancakes is an expression of fondness, infatuation, and affection when no other expression seems to fit or is appropriate. It is something you can say to someone so that they will know, and you will know, even though neither of you really know. There is also an emoji for it, so that is nice.
No, I got tongue-tied and said, "I really like pancakes."
Well, did she get it?
Yeah, because she said she likes pancakes too, and then we totally nibbled.
