‘The World Is So Usuriously Serious’: Social Media Reacts to Wild Mississippi Taco Bell Meltdown
Working a fast food job or just the service industry in general seems like it would be an easy gig. Yet, that couldn’t be further from the truth. There are countless clips online that depict that line of work as an absolute nightmare. Take this recently posted TikTok video for example. The clip has around 1.3 million likes and 8.1 million views as viewers watch a Mississippi man totally melt down inside a Taco Bell.
Unfortunately, the TikTok video would start off with the altercation having already taken place. However, what viewers do see is the aftermath of the encounter. Nevertheless, it is still quite entertaining as the Mississippi man completely loses his cool. The video then shows an employee outside of the restaurant as the angry man steps out of his car and thrusts the air at the woman. This prompts the man recording to begin yelling as he states, “Quit doing that! Get out of here, boy!”
While that clip may have come to an end with the man getting back into his vehicle, a second video was posted by the same account giving a little more context to what really went down inside that Mississippi Taco Bell. A news segment is then shown in the second clip explaining that the man came into the restaurant wanting his food and got angry that it was not ready yet. He would then cause a massive scene, as well as yelling racial slurs.
TikTok Reacts To Mississippi Man’s Taco Bell Melt Down
The TikTok comment section had a lot to say regarding this man’s behavior, as many users would rush to leave behind their own thoughts and opinions. “I don’t think y’all truly understand how funny this is. I’m howling,” said one. Another wrote, “It’s the opening the car door from the outside for me.” A different commenter then jokingly asked, “I only counted two pumps; why are y’all tipping?” Finally, one last person’s comment also read, “The world is so usuriously serious.”
This kind of encounter is not super uncommon in the service industry, sadly. Watch Mojo even has a list of the times that fast food Karens face consequences. There are so many encounters like this one online that it is a wonder that there are any fast food employees left.
The story would then come to an end with the first TikTok video being the outcome of the Mississippi man’s Taco Bell meltdown. After making his strange gesture towards the female employee, the man would get back in his car and drive off. At the end of the day, this man’s behavior was totally uncalled for. Hopefully, he was able to cool off a little bit following this encounter.
