In volleyball, a pancake is when the ball is about to hit the floor, and a player desperately dives and slides his/her hand across the floor, in an attempt to cause the ball to bounce off of the back of the player's hand rather than the floor. If executed properly, the ball will bounce back up into the air, allowing another player to pass the ball over the net.
They would have lost the game because of John's bad pass, but Mike desperately performed a pancake, allowing Joe to hit the ball over the net, saving the point.
Mary's pancake was ineffective, because her hand was not directly under the ball when it fell.

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.
Did you tell her how you feel?
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.
