Finally, a Chat Roulette-style app just for devoted fans of Applebee’s! Imagine being able to walk into your favorite neighborhood bar and grill, order up some sliders and pull out your phone for a quick chat with another Applebee’s diner somewhere in the world. Thanks to the WhatsApplebee’s app, that ever-elusive dream is finally a reality.
The maker of the app, a developer named Michael Lazer-Walker who has no affiliation with the actual Applebee’s company, explained to Engadget, “Lately I’ve seen so many apps that seem like they’re a parody of Silicon Valley culture but are in fact real, actual products. I wanted to create something just on the other side of that line—something that’s clearly a terrible idea, but not SO outlandish compared to the current state of things that you might, for a second, believe it’s real.” The app itself may be a joke, but the good news for lonely diners looking for an actual Applebee’s-based social network is that WhatsApplebee’s is a fully functional iPhone app. You’ll never have to spend a lonely evening with your Bourbon Black & Bleu Burger again …
