I didn't think I'd spend the first two hours of my morning listening to people place orders at an imaginary Mcdonald's drive-thru. That is exactly what I did thanks to the social media platform.
Julee spent hours as a McDonald's cashier to an audience of thousands of radio users. She was on hour 13 with more than 1,700 people tuning in. She approved one user to speak for the customer. The customer would make absurd requests for food that wasn't on the menu, or put in an incorrect order. The person asked if they could put the cookies in the milk.
Julee almost always goes along with the bit even though she has become known for handing out bags of fries, selling marijuana with orders, and sorting out drama between customers and other employees. A customer asked for a bag filled with BTS sauce. Julee was happy to oblige. She was asked to shred a Big Mac through a paper shredder to make it look like roast beef.
After nearly two hours of listening, I have heard customers threaten robbery, order cuisines not normally served at McDonald's, cry over spouses who have left them, and complain about the several-hour line that exists outside of this nonexistent McDonald's. People seem to be committed to the part. Julee is the one who breaks character the most, because she misses therapy appointments or celebrates the length of time the Space has been around.
The Space is so strange that it made it so captivating. Many of the live audio rooms are hosted by journalists or business leaders who want to speak with others in their industry about niche topics. Julee has entertained an audience of over 1,000. There are rooms on Clubhouse that are strange, like people pretending to be whales, or a Mansion Party.
The Space was supposed to be open for 24 hours, but unfortunately it shut down this morning. It was a good distraction. This Space could be a one-off created by a hilarious user, or it could be a sign that Clubhouse's roleplay culture may be bleeding over into Twitter. That sign is shaped like Mcdonald's golden arches.
