Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I recently went to a Burger King in a nice neighborhood the other day. I hadn't been to a Burger King in a long time but I was there before the bank opened. I walked in and it looked just like this, all the seats were rigid, cheap, small and uncomfortable (I am not a large person). There were no fountains for drinks. There were no dispensers of any kind. The seating area was basically just a small hallway to a restroom. It wasn't a place you were supposed to eat. It was more like a display from a shopping mall department store window and just as uninviting.

Inside you had to order from the digital kiosk. I assume that burger king transitioned to making the drivers window the priority during the pandemic. All the space in that building was probably allotted to increasing the size of the kitchen.

They still had the original burger king playpen and maze but it was permanently locked with an out of order sign.
