A Florida branch of the Chipotle restaurant chain has been hit with a wave of negative reviews after claims an employee seduced multiple women’s husbands. An employee appearing to go by the name Lucy has apparently caused a stir after being named in several negative Yelp reviews of a Fort Myers, Florida, Chipotle restaurant. The reviewers all claim that Lucy has a tendency to seduce husbands and sleep with them and the scathing reviews were shared online. Twitter user @fiveeightshorty shared a screenshot of the Yelp reviews, writing: “Apparently there's some controversy at my local Chipotle.” Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Three separate one-star reviews posted one month ago all mentioned the employee Lucy by name and insinuated she sleeps with married customers. One of the reviews read: “Stay far away. Lucy the GM or whatever position she is in-- she likes to sleep with married men AKA her customers.” Another reviewer also added, “The guac sucks too!!”, at the end of their review about Lucy’s alleged activities. The tweet has been viewed almost 12 million times and led to a whole host of jokes. One person wrote: “Let her cook!!” Another said: “Sounds like Lucy is great with customer service to me.” “Sounds like Lucy's guac brings all the boys to the Chipotle,” someone else wrote. Since the review went viral, the Yelp page has been flooded with some hilarious (likely fake) five-star reviews. One review said: “Lucy went above and beyond when handling my burrito. Will be visiting this location much more frequently.” indy100 has contacted Chipotle for comment. Have your say in our news democracy.

Twitter has rebranded to X as part of Elon Musk’s plan to create an “everything app”. The tech billionaire, who took over the platform in October 2022, replaced the famous blue bird with the new logo on Monday after crowdsourcing ideas from users over the weekend. He also reportedly informed employees by email that Twitter would become X, as well as redirected the domain X.com to Twitter.com. Linda Yaccarino, who Mr Musk hired to be the chief executive of Twitter last month, confirmed the switch in a series of tweets late on Sunday. “It’s an exceptionally rare thing – in life or in business – that you get a second chance to make another big impression,” she wrote. “Twitter made one massive impression and changed the way we communicate. Now, X will go further, transforming the global town square.” Ms Yaccarino described the app as the “future state of unlimited interactivity”, incorporating audio, video, messaging, payments and banking. “There’s absolutely no limit to this transformation,” she added. “X will be the platform that can deliver, well... everything.” Mike Proulx, research director at Forrester, said on Sunday that the move would further alienate Twitter’s original, and once fiercely loyal, user base. “On the one hand, you can make the argument he would be getting rid of an iconic brand. On the other hand, he is signalling it is a new day for what was once Twitter and that the company is heading in a different direction with a different user base.” Mr Musk said in a Sunday post he wanted to change Twitter’s logo and polled his millions of followers whether they would favour changing the site’s colour scheme from blue to black. He posted a picture of a stylized X against a black outer space-themed background. “And soon we shall bid adieu to the Twitter brand and, gradually, all the birds,” he said. Under Mr Musk’s tumultuous tenure since he bought Twitter in October, the company has changed its business name to X Corp, reflecting the billionaire’s vision to create a “super app” like China’s WeChat. In April, Twitter’s legacy blue bird logo was temporarily replaced by Dogecoin’s Shiba Inu dog, helping drive a surge in the cryptocurrency’s market value. The company came under widespread criticism from users and marketing professionals when Musk announced earlier this month that Twitter would limit how many tweets per day various accounts can read. The daily limits helped Meta Platforms-owned rival service Threads, which crossed 100 million sign-ups within five days of its 5 July launch. Twitter did not respond to a request for comment about the latest changes. Additional reporting from agencies Read More What is Elon Musk’s ‘everything app’ X?

Oh Google, you naughty old devil. Someone in Silicone Valley is rolling around in laughter after pulling off this hilarious prank at the expense of the Flat Earth community. Flat Earthers believe that the world is flat, and that any evidence to the contrary is faked. Their belief that the world is flat has been described as the ultimate conspiracy theory, as they also think that several governments and NASA are working together to keep the general public in the dark. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter Now, one member of Google's workforce has decided to take matters into their own hands with this subtle but oh-so-effective troll. Log onto Google, and access Google Translate. When you're in there, type in 'I'm a flat-earther' in English, then look at the French translation. If you're not a fluent French speaker, then the translation might need explaining. Try flipping that box around again and see what you get. In other flat earthers news, they announced that they think that Australia - yes, that massive, dusty continent that's given us Kylie Minogue, and has a population of 24 million - doesn't exist. In a now-deleted Facebook post, one of the leaders of the movement Shelley Floryd wrote: Australia does not exist. All things you call 'proof' are actually well-fabricated lies and documents made by the leading governments of the world. Your Australian friends? They're all actors and computer-generated personas, part of the plot to trick the world. If you think you've ever been to Australia, you're terribly wrong. The pilots are all in on this and have in all actuality only flown you to islands close nearby - or in some cases, parts of South America, where they have cleared space and hired actors to act our as real Australians. As if that wasn't enough, they also said that they think that gravity doesn't exist and that the only real force is electromagnetism. Right... Now we see why Google set up the troll.
