It is plausible that someone who did things repeatedly for years might do that thing out of context. This is an unlikely extreme, but it is plausible or it wouldn't land as a joke.
Of course it didn't happen to the person who told the joke. Most comedy bits like this are either 'what if' or extremely embellished to the point of being fictional with something real that was vaguely similar. It is still funny to think about how it could happen, because it might remind us of stuff that other people or even ourselves have done that was stupid and illogical due to habits.
Never let the truth get in the way of a good joke
Were it simply an allegory for the folly of man, why, I ask you, is the gentleman still laughing about it?
A strong imagination!
The act of making a blizzard vs filling a cup with soda are not comparable.
Statistically, it is more likely this scenario woild happen at a Dairy Queen than a Burger King but that wouldn't be as funny.
