Manager wants me to break up with my girlfriend because she works at Burger King

A little backstory: my manager was married to woman who runs a Burger King. I don't know why it didn't work out. He's always evasive when the topic gets brought up.

So I've never had a gf before and I finally got one but she works at the Burger King across the street from the CFA where I work. Now normally I don't even talk about my personal life with anyone because I'm very private, but she came over one day and brought me a Whopper and manager overheard me telling Brayden (guy who works the fryer) that she's my girlfriend.

When my shift was over he took me aside and said, "I think of myself as a mentor to all my team members. And I think I'm a pretty good judge of character. If I'm not mistaken you're in love with this young lady. I once believed in love. Then my Burger Queen ripped my heart out so she could 'have it her way.'" He got real angry and I was like, "Skip, i don't know what you're talking about." Then he pulled out his phone and showed me a meme picture of Ronald McDonald walking in on Wendy (from Wendy's) in a bed with the Burger King. He said, "this isn't just a meme, these are real people facing real tragedies."

Then he said that in the middle ages there was something called Prima Noctis where the king got all the women to himself on their wedding night. I told him that was a myth but he refused to believe me and he explained that Burger King continues that practice today, though in what way I couldn't understand.

Anyway, I told my gf about it and she said Romeo and Juliet faced those kinds of situations and they were still happily married (she doesn't seem to know Romeo and Juliet died). Are we really star-crossed lovers?

Zoomer coworker killing me

I'm an early millennial and I know this is going to sound like boomer talk but kids today have completely lost their minds. We just hired an 18 year old kid and I don't know where to start. Well, actually I do. He will not shut up about Star Wars. He thinks those weird movies, the ones with Obi One Kenobi and Darth Vader, but he wasn't Darth Vader yet are the best movies ever made. The new Star Wars movies they've made, he hates those. I don't think he's ever seen the originals.

No one at my store really pays attention to him, except one time he was going on about how some youtube video made people unreasonably hate those movies. Then Brayden, who works the fryer with me said to him, "Your generation gets all your opinions from youtube videos and podcasters so you can't imagine anyone else doesn't. People made fun of those movies for years before youtube even came out." The zoomer kid got mad and said "What! What! Show me! Show me where people made fun of them!" Brayden just laughed and said "A major character in those movies is a Jamaican alien who goes around stepping in animal crap."

My manager came up then and while he usually eggs this stuff on he said "alright calm down, you guys are getting hotter than a Spicy Deluxe with Pepper Jack cheese."

So anyway, later the zoomer kid is listening to music and it's like, what even is this stuff? It just sounds like effeminate men and masculine women going oooOOOOoooOOOOohhh. Completely obscene lyrics too
