If you were anywhere near the internet last week you likely saw the viral video of Adam Sandler leaving an IHOP after a hapless hostess didn't recognize him and tried to make him wait 30 minutes for table.

Well, Sandler has responded to the incident on Twitter, and in true Sandlerian fashion, has put a hilarious spin on the whole thing.


It all came down to milkshakes, you see.

A publicist for the star confirmed it was in fact Sandler in the footage, but beyond that, Sandler has chosen to just chuckle about the situation.

In his tweet, Sandler quipped:

"For the record, I only left the IHOP because the nice woman told me the all-you-can-eat deal didn't apply to the milkshakes."

Fair enough!

Sandler's response is the newest chapter in this saga, which had the internet laughing last week.

It all began with a TikTok posted by IHOP employee Dayanna Rodas, in which she included security footage of her encounter with Sandler.

It was all a simple—but hilarious—mistake.

Rodas failed to recognize the star when he and his daughter came in and relayed to him it would be a 30 minute wait for a table, whereupon Sandler walked out, leaving Rodas deeply embarrassed once she realized what had happened.

Was Sandler truly disappointed he wouldn't be able to gorge himself on delicious IHOP milkshakes? Or was he just trying to avoid having to wait for 30 minutes just to get some pancakes?

We may never know.

But one thing is for sure. Rodas' TikTok has so far been viewed more than 11 million times, so suffice to say the embarrassing moment has resonated.

And so has Sandler's jokey response.
On Twitter, people loved his comedic take on this awkward situation.









Here's hoping Sandler finds the all-you-can-drink milkshake deal of his dreams.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Disney princesses are usually known for their whimsical singing and befriending creatures from all across the animal kingdom, but Princess Rapunzel at Tokyo DisneySea may have misunderstood the assignment.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

And a TikToker has followed that lead by developing a chart that predicts a man's political persuasion based on his hair alone—and bald men are NOT happy about it.

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
