Context

This line is spoken by Donkey, voiced by Eddie Murphy, in the film Shrek, directed by Vicky Jensen and Andrew Adamson (2001).

Shrek and Donkey weren't always friends. Before Donkey charmingly got on his BFF Shrek's nerves, Shrek found him just plain annoying. When Donkey invites himself to spend the night in Shrek's swamp abode, he lets Shrek know how it's all going down—"We can stay up late, swapping manly stories, and in the morning… I’m making waffles!"

Shrek, proving he'd be no fun to have brunch with, still doesn't want Donkey sticking around, even after the promise of waffles. Who doesn't like waffles?!

Pretentious Factor

If you were to drop this quote at a dinner party, would you get an in-unison "awww" or would everyone roll their eyes and never invite you back? Here it is, on a scale of 1-10.

If you're making waffles, please invite us. We'll wear our cutest footie jammies and bring our Shrek sleeping bag.
