This is one of those ideas that starts as a joke and ends with everybody admitting they would absolutely use it.
The concept is a dedicated button at the drive-thru that says:
I’m too high to decide.
You press it, and the system takes over.
Not randomly. Intelligently.
It asks maybe two questions.
Sweet or savory?
Comforting or reckless?
Then it builds the order for you with calm confidence and no judgment.
Because let us be honest. There is a real window of time where reading a menu feels like trying to negotiate with a spreadsheet in another language.
Everything sounds good. Nothing sounds right. Suddenly you are deeply analyzing sauces like your answer determines the next ten years of your life.
That is not a food-ordering problem. That is a user-experience failure.
The modern drive-thru has adapted to apps, points, customizations, and ten thousand beverage variations, but it has not adapted to the very human experience of not having enough brain available for all that.
This button would be compassionate design.
Also hilarious.
And yes, sober people would use it too.
Because decision fatigue does not care why your mind is cooked.
