The robbery charges against a 19-year-old were dropped because he had posted “Where are my pancakes?” as his Facebook status from his father’s computer at the time of the crime. One expert thinks the charges were dropped too hastily: “Some of the brightest people on the Internet are teenagers,” he said. “They know the Internet better than a lot of people. Why? Because they use it all the time.” So sinister!

      The question is, whether he’d found his pancakes.
      Their miserable fate…
      Their desappearance…
      Their nothingness…
