Waffles, Spaghetti, and Lasagna

The patterns

in the way people communicate

are like waffles, spaghetti, and lasagna.

Waffles are logical and symmetrical,

squares inside of squares.

This is the person who is neat and orderly

and uses the oxford comma.

They give reports.

Spaghetti is context and detail,

strands inside of strands.

This is the person who has us wondering

if they have a point,

but somehow still captivates us.

They paint pictures.

Lasagna is interconnected ideas,

layers on top of layers.

This is the person who

resembles spaghetti

but the layers have symmetry, and are

made up of intermingled components.

They connect dots.

Most classy problems are complex.

In the making of our classy problems,

we have made lots

of decisions around complexity.

Sometimes with intention,

sometimes without.

Classy Problems is lasagna.

In crafting Classy Problems,

we’ve been intentional

with our decisions.

Like when eating lasagna,

we hope you’ll let it rest

so the sauce can set.

We’ve also portioned it

in a way that will

leave you with leftovers.

Revisit these ideas.

Combine them with others.

Create your own meal.
