A man tricked his Jamaican father into ordering a Krabby Patty at a McDonald’s drive-thru, and people can’t stop laughing. 

In a video that’s since gone viral on Instagram, a man filmed himself at a McDonald’s drive-thru, where he asked his father to make the order. The caption reads: “I told my Jamaican dad to order a Krabby Patty from McDonald’s.

Things start out normal enough, as the man orders a medium fries and an orange juice, however, when he looks to his son to see what he’d like, he responds with a “Krabby Patty.”

His dad goes ahead and tells the drive-thru worker he’d like a Krabby Patty, clearly convinced he’s making a real order. 

His son can be seen cracking up, but trying his best to not let it show. He also asks his dad to order him a Strawberry Mirinda, to which the drive-thru worker responds: “We don’t do that here.”

The dad, however, unfamiliar with the language, doesn’t understand the McDonald’s employee’s response, and continues to try and order the Krabby Patty and Mirinda. Eventually, he even goes so far as to call for the manager, who is also baffled.

After the video was shared on a popular Instagram meme page, people found the whole situation absolutely hilarious. 

“Nah I can’t lie, this had me crying tears,” one wrote. “I can’t believe he got out of the car,” another said. 

“How you doing your dad dirty like that,” one asked, followed by a series of laughing emojis. 

Some were disappointed that the manager didn’t manage to figure out what was going on: “I wish the manager knew what a Krabby Patty was. She didn’t get the joke either. Still funny though.”
