Support NeoGAF

[Speevy]

I just hope the person whose job it is to deflect Twitter insults has other responsibilities within the company, or doesn't.

 

[Slayven]

No.

/puts Slayven on ignore like the rest of GAF

You will rue this day

I can't imagine being such a curmudgeon that some funny back and forth between two PR agents is met with "I wish they'd shut up."

Get a sense of humor.

I don't want to live in the world where i can't appreciate some good petty beef

 

[Bleepey]

If I was Hardee's I'd say just cos you're first doesn't mean you'll get credit for it when others do it better. Without cheating who was the inventor of the light bulb.

Wendy's Twitter person got to be a black woman

Yep. Has to be.

 

[Zen Aku]

you won't believe what the wendy's twitter account had to say to the hardee's twitter account

You must be a blast at parties.

Comedy critic GAF is my favorite GAF.

 

[Joel Was Right]

Reads the passive aggressive tweets.

America, you're weird.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Man people here do NOT like stuff that may or may not be remotely funny eh? Come on guys. Have some fun once in a while.

Lighten up dude.

 

[Sir Blaming]

Wendy's is the smug anime girl of fast food social media.

Which one of them has the better breakfast.

what kind of lame ass parties do you go to where brand twitter beef is a topic of conversation?

 

[Speevy]

Which one of them has the better breakfast.

Whichever one has the good sense to stop serving breakfast first.

 

[AlexFlame116]

Holy crap....

 

[Alienous]

That wasn't a relevant burn.

If I asked "Who walked on the moon with the most style", which is analogous to asking who has the best food, and someone responds "Tell me the fourth person to walk on the moon" it would be a dumb, irrelevant response.

Hardees was right - being first has nothing to do with being the best.

Cyberpunk expectations: rival corporations using spies and hacking.

Cyberpunk reality: fast food companies going off on twitter

I don't know where they go but judging from this thread you'd overstay your welcome and let everyone know how lame it is instead of dipping

 

[discospider]

Corporations thinking they people is creepy.

 

[Crocodile]

Obligatory:

Not that this isn't still funny as hell though

 

[Lord Fagan]

You've posted on every page of this thread.

I'm curious how far you'll go to prove you're not invested.

 

[ItIsOkBro]

what is the hardee's handler thinking! that kind of response just opens you up for anything.

 

[ElBoxyBrown]

Wendy's is saying that no one remembers the fourth person to walk on the moon compared to the first, as a rebuttal to Hardees claiming that being the first at something or being the original doesn't make you the best.

In the context of being the first to offer certain fast food deals, it's pretty dumb.

Compared to their competition it's still the best deal.

[Kite]

I have no dog in this fight but Hardees is right, first person on the moon matters to history but who gives a fuck who was the first to come up with some fast food sales gimmick? They're roughly the same level of quality in my book, a lil better than the shit tier like McDs and BK so.. congrats special olympics of fast food burgers?

 

[AllIsOneIsNone]

I peed before my girlfriend today, therefore I am better.

We only remember the first pee.

That's the analogy you want to make?

 

[Lactose_Intolerant]

I prefer Nihilist Arby's.

It's almost as though don rickles is zinging God in heaven, except there's no heaven, God doesn't exist & Don rickles is just dead
Eat arbys

yep, this is better.

 

[Kite]

That's the analogy you want to make?

It's kinda insulting to the special olympics but it's the closest I can come up with so yeah.

[EloquentM]

This thread was a mistake. I have no sense of humor. Wendy's made an illogical joke. Why are we applauding corporations catering to the twitter sphere. Why are we assuming the Wendy's social media employee is a black woman. Omg omg omg whyyyyyy??!!! *explodes*

 

[Just_myles]

Can you name another dollar menu besides Micky Ds? What's the first one that comes to your mind when that deal is mentioned? You might be able to, but I bet most people will name the big M first. That's the point - once you created something in a field where quality is roughly the same it's part of your brand in the eyes of the consumer. So sure Hardee's can do something like it, and it might be better, but the vast majority are more willing to go to those who pioneered it.

Funnily enough when you said dollar menu I thought of Wendy's value menu cause I don't eat McDonald's lol

 

[Nepenthe]

Locked-in syndrome for technology and innovation is a real phenomenon that the joke depends on. If you're unaware of this, it doesn't help to act like Wendy's response is totally illogical, and this is before we get to the fact that this is little more than a clapback that doesn't require technical accuracy to acquire merit.

Seriously, some of y'all are some squares. And I ain't talkin' bout their burgers.

I think the more important question is at what point did finding amusement in a joke become "celebration?"

Most likely, ya know? Exceptions apply.

I'd rather fuck with Wendy's value menu tbh

[superdeluxe]

Don't ever come at Wendy's social media.

Tip of the hat to arbys social media with all of their awesome pop culture posts

Alan LaVern Bean was the fourth person to walk on the moon.

Seriously?

 

[Chumley]

If you hate Twitter and can't even appreciate light hearted humor why even come into this thread and post in the first place.

The people who have to make it known how much they hate stuff like this are more annoying than the stuff they're criticizing.

And here we have someone insulting disabled people because their favorite fast food joint was insulted.

Fucking unbelievable. Sometimes GAF is truly abominable.

 

[blame space]

Damn Wendy's is out here murdering ppl. 5 stars ..rt..the works. Social Media and fast food Fucking own.
