It should go without saying that the challenging bit doesn't lie in the burger getting eaten.
The challenging bit lies in the burger (not to put too fine a point on it) staying eaten.

That's an exaggeration. In reality, the compromise was: in every room with a ceiling and on the porch.

At a Thanksgiving dinner a few years ago, I got bored with the dry conversation. I nodded to my fam members sitting near me at the kids' end of the table, saying "Watch this!"BillTre said:
I mimed grabbing a grenade, and pulling the pin out with my teeth.
I hollered "Trump!" and lobbed the pretend grenade into the middle of the other end of the table. I stuck my fingers in my ears and mimed cowering.
The explosion went off and the grown ups argued for an hour straight.
True story!
