**Story Time With Reviewbrah Commences**
I did the unthinkable this afternoon.
I went to Burger King
willingly and
it was it was an experience. I'll tell you that.
I don't know how the idea came to me. You know, it's like it's one of those things where it just pops into your head.
Like sometimes when it comes down to your eating plans,
whatever it is that you are are going to be dining on or feasting on or just snacking on for the day
sometimes it is a
well-orchestrated
fine-tuned
well-oiled machine where you have every single step planned out and
you have it down to not even just a minute to the second to the millisecond and
everything is just
exceptionally orchestrated as though we're out of a Hollywood movie.
Other times, you're feeling spontaneous. You just go for it. This was one of those days.
I said, "I'm gonna go to Burger King and you know what?"
No regrets! I'm just gonna go in and I'm gonna get something to eat."
And this is one of those things. It just came out of the blue. I wasn't thinking about this last night..
I wasn't dreaming about this. I wasn't anticipating to do a review nothing
It just came to me all of a sudden Burger King. I'm gonna go to Burger King.
The determination
was was on another level today. That's all that I could even... That's the only way I can express it.
It was...
It was just on a completely different level.
Because it's a cold day today. And keep in mind, I've been in Florida for a while.
It is freezing today. It is probably I can't really read what the thermometer says.
It's at the very least. It's in the 30's outside. It is a freezing cold today.
Wind chill brings it down into the 20's easily.
I was looking... and it's one of those days where any
little puddles or lakes are frozen over. It is cold day.
It is harsh. It is dangerous. It is treacherous.
I said you know what? I'm gonna brave that cold. I'm gonna brave the ice.
The Arctic winds, I
will fight against and I'm gonna do what I have to do
to take the 5 minute travel and get to Burger King. And
I stepped outside and that wave of cold
was incredible and nature was fighting against me!
I could feel that cold air and part of me. wanted to say turn around. Don't do it. Go back inside!
Get comfortable and eat something else.
But, I fought against it.
I persisted and I kept pushing forward.
I'm not gonna let that cold stop me! I'm a man on a mission and I'm gonna go to Burger King.
So I begin the travel - the journey. And...
This is one of those things that, it's like... You ever get that feeling where you're doing something that you know
you don't you don't normally do and you're kind of getting this feeling like wow
I can't believe I'm actually doing this? And perhaps sometimes it's a
pleasant anticipation.
Other times it can be a little worrisome.
That's what I was kind of feeling as I was making my way over to Burger King and it was like, you know
I can't believe I'm actually doing this. I'm going over there and
that five minute travel seemed like it was at least
57 minutes long.
When I finally got to the Burger King parking lot,
I just had to stop but I had to just examine the Burger King edifice for a short period of time, not anything too long,
but for a few minutes at least to just take it in. Number one:
I reached a destination and I needed to take a you know size up this building.
I needed to know what I was in for when I went in there, but I wasn't just going through the drive-through.
No, no, I was actually dining in this time around.
I was sizing it up. I was assessing it.
What am I going to be in for when I open those doors and set foot inside
the almighty BK?
So I was sizing it up. And...
After a few minutes, I exhaled. I closed my eyes and
I took a deep breath and I was pumping myself up. I was getting psyched!
I was saying, "Alright. I'm gonna do this on the count of three. I'm gonna go in there and whatever happens happens!
One. Two. Three..." I made it past the parking lot and I got in.
When I opened the door, it was eerily quiet in there. And that means one of two things: A.
It's just uh, not a busy time.Or B.
They're waiting for me!
As it turns out, it was just, there wasn't a lot of business.
But I go in right. Let's not... I gave it away, but that's not, that's... Let's try not to... And I go in!
The menu stands there.
Like, you know in in the movie 2001 a Space Odyssey?
You know the black....
What is that? The monolith?
That's what it reminded me of!
It was towering over me, and I was trying to read every line. And I was thinking. It was very intimidating.
I was trying to think,
"Get a hold of yourself!"
"What are you going to get?"
I was feeling spontaneous. I didn't make up my mind.
I just knew I had to be at Burger King and I had to get something there!
A whopper! One whopper! As is.
It was served. I paid for it.
Dine in.
I could barely even get it out of my mouth at that point, but I kept saying, "Hold yourself together!"
"Just keep it together lad!" And...
What you have to do next is get some napkins. No drink today! I wasn't feeling like like going that far.
Get some napkins and get to a seat.
Okay.
You got this! You can do it. You made it this far.
You got to the Burger King. You got your food and now you just have to get a seat and eat it, too.
You are this far. Do not turn back! Do not waver!
Do not give up!
Very well then.
I clasped the tray ...
because they gave me a tray. You know, they like, you know how some places they'll give you a bag and then...
But they gave me the tray and I got the whopper and it was wrapped up.
But it was on a tray with napkins on the tray. I began scanning the restaurant for a place to sit.
And then I saw it!
Ketchup packets.
And I didn't really do anything with them, I I just kind of looked at the ketchup packets.
And then I just kept going about my business and I finally found a booth.
I sat in the booth. And at this point I was in the zone I said, "You know what? I've got a hold of myself."
I'm just gonna eat this whopper and and you know what? We're just gonna do it!
And that's what I did.
I sat down.
I planted myself in that seat. I acted as though I was as buckling myself in.
I was, I was, in the zone at this point!
I unwrapped it.
Examined the whopper. I took that first bite and the whopper was fighting back!
It was... the Mayo (I forgot to get it without any Mayo) the Mayo was getting everywhere. It was getting on my face!
It was... It was trying to get to the suit, but I didn't that that that thankfully didn't happen.
It was getting on my face. The pickles were sliding out. Some of the onions were dangling down.
But I kept chomping down and devouring this whopper burger.
And I ate it. And you know what?
The whopper was actually pretty good. I can't complain. It was actually a pretty decent
Whopper burger. I mean, for what it was worth.
If I usually get a whopper, it doesn't have, you know...
I try to get it like light on the mayo or no mayo.
Because I will sometimes get a whopper from Burger King, but it was just a little too much Mayo, you know?
And I think that's a universal problem.
But I ate the whopper. It was pretty good for what it was.
Job well done.
So I threw out the garbage.
I, you know, wiped my face. Got any
remnants of the whopper off my hands. Made sure I was all cleaned up. Then I packed it up.
Exited the building.
And made my way back.
Job well done, I emerged from the almighty Burger King
victorious.
Well, thank you for watching this ladies and gentlemen, I'm your host TheReportOfTheWeek.
Whether you are on the edge of your seat, which I'm sure we all were.
I'm gonna be waiting for the email from the Hollywood producers waiting to make this into a film.
You know, I'm sure we were all on the edge of your seats, but if you thought this was incredibly stupid
Thank you for bearing with me.
I just decided to challenge myself because I didn't know what I was even going to talk about today because
I don't have anything to review. I said, you know talk about your lunch and try to make it sound this interesting as possible.
So I just kind of turned the camera on and just improvised from there. Thank you for watching!
I'm your host TheReportOfTheWeek and we'll just have some
good old standard reviews coming up next, but I just wanted to have some fun some fun. Thank you and take care!
