Keep your van-neela.

I was just sexually harassed at the Burger King drive-thru.

The person who took my order through the speaker sounded like a woman. But something wasn’t right, so I refrained from my typical Kansan “Thankya Mam.”

And I was right.

What greeted me at the window was an extremely effeminate Hispanic guy. He took one look at me and I thought “crap!” because I knew it was on.

He was all smiles as he handed me my food. Then he handed me the drink with the back of his hand facing me so that I would touch his hand. I tried to avoid this and getting my drink felt like a game of Jenga.

Push from below and slide up…

But even as I artfully got the drink out of his grip he still caressed my fingers. Blech.

Then came the shake.
I ordered a shake.
WHY did I have to order a shake?
No more shakes. Ever.

“Oh you had a van-neela shake!” he said, extra smiley.
“Yes, I did,” I said.
He starts toward the shake machine, then does a half turn and coos, “Well, I’ll give you the van-neela!”

WHY?!

I avoided eye contact when I snatched the shake and resisted the temptation to speed off dramatically, screeches and all.

Ugh, ugh, ugh.
