order panic

When you are trying to order at a food establishment, and feel pressured to order quickly so you order the first thing that you see on the menu without actually knowing what it is.

Also occurs when the place has a new menu, or has an overwhelming amount of options to choose from.

Cashier: Hi, can I take your order?

You: Uh, yeah just give me a second to look at the menu.
(Looks around)
(Don't know what you want)
(Keep looking)
(Cashier looks at watch)

Cashier: So, Can I take your order?

(Still don't know what you want because you're looking at the menu but aren't actually reading it

You: (say in one breath) uhyeahi'lljusthavethejamaicanjerkchicken

Ordealism

When too many people are involved in a decision which involves all persons engaging in an activity, and it becomes too difficult to decide where to go, or how to execute the plan.

We were all supposed to go out, but noone could agree on which restaurant, who would ride with who, there was so much ordealism that some of us lost interest in even going.
