TikTokers Lose It After Chili's Robot Rolls Up To Their Table And Starts Singing 'Happy Birthday'

Imagine you're out to dinner at a restaurant with a few friends or family members. Everyone has gathered for your birthday.

Imagine you've already had your meal and it's time for last drinks, coffees, and dessert.


Imagine restaurant staff coming up to the table to sing "Happy Birthday" to you and your group.

Is anyone in your imaginary scenario a robot?

Probably not, but if you happen to celebrate your birthday at Chili's then there's a small chance you might find yourself getting serenaded by Rita.

As in Rita the Robot.

TikTok user @allllllllllywestttttttt - named Ally - found herself unexpectedly staring down a singing robot after her meal at one of the 50+ Chili's locations that have a Rita the Robot.

Ally and her group weren't aware of Rita before it came rolling up to their table to serenade the squad, which lead to some pretty interesting reactions among the group.

And TikTok users, who were honestly not that into Rita... though some tried to look on the bright side.

Especially when people noticed she rolled up to the table with no cake or other dessert for the birthday guest.

So we got awkward singing, a traumatic robot scare, a robot that sounds like Barbie ... and no dessert?

TikTok is not having it.

What about you?

How would you feel about having a robot sing Happy Birthday to you at a restaurant rather than having servers come to your table to sing?

Would the lack of cake make this better or worse for you?

Town Hall Crowd Erupts In Jeering Chants After GOP Rep. Has Older Woman Dragged Out

New York Republican Representative Mike Lawler has angered his own constituents after he had a woman dragged out of his town hall for pressing him on his loyalty to President Donald Trump.

Emily Feiner, whose Bluesky profile describes her as a Jewish retired social worker and mother of two, later shared that she "was certainly no threat" and that she "asked my congressperson what his red line was to finally, vocally oppose the lawless administration and he didn’t answer the question, so I called out for him to answer it and he had me removed."

Lady Gaga Emotionally Reflects On Record-Breaking Concert In Brazil: 'I Will Never Forget This Moment'

In honor of Women's History Month, Madonna once said she wanted to "rule the world," and it seemed that she had it locked in, given that she held the record for highest concert attendance for a female artist, and by a considerable margin.

But the pop star's record has officially been broken by Lady Gaga after the "Bad Romance" singer's concert at Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Beach last weekend.

Trump Blasted After Celebrating Cinco De Mayo By Resharing Infamous 2016 Tweet

President Donald Trump was criticized after he celebrated Cinco de Mayo by retweeting his now-infamous 2016 tweet in which he's eating a taco bowl from Trump Tower Grill and declares his "love" for Hispanics.

Back then, while in the middle of the same campaign in which he claimed Mexicans are "rapists" who are "bringing drugs" and "bringing crime" into the U.S., Trump posted an image of himself giving a thumbs-up at his desk while supposedly preparing to eat a taco bowl from his own eatery.
