Lots of people do. Place is always slammed at lunch time. I enjoy their food.

their food was really good when i was younger but it got worse and worse as i grew up
most of the time i can ignore how gross fast food is because it's cheap and convenient.
but arby's got expensive too. like i could get a plate of diner food that is way better with what i was paying at arby's
potato cakes and curly fries are second to none though.

Probably the terrible food, OP
I had Arby's earlier.
Given, it was just the mozzarella sticks and potato cakes. If I plan to eat a sandwich, it's not going to be roast beef. It's gonna be a damn burger.
Their chicken is decent too, but it's hard to screw up deep fried stuff in the fast food industry and stick around.

Arby's Italian is better than anything Subway/Quiznos/Jimmy Johns could make. I've already had it twice
What, like, twice today?

Wait people hate Arbys? I never have heard anyone hate on them. Roast beef and cheddars rule, fries rule, and Mozzarella sticks rule.
:? This is true.
I had chipotle and habenaro. The chipotle was hotter. It surprised me, both were good though.
But for real? Arby's Roast Beef w/ cheddar and Ham w/ Swiss are god tier with some curly fries and Arby's sauce. When my mom would get it on the way home, she'd always buy fries for everyone and just a bunch of those two. Then everyone grabs what they wish.

That delicious onion bun. Mmmmm.
These are my two answers.
Even Jon Stewart at one point followed up one of his jokes with "I actually have no reason to hate on you. You're fine. But... eh."

Because I have at least three other places within driving distance of me that do roast beef better, and one of them delivers. There is no reason for me to go to Arby's.

I like everything at Arby's except the sandwiches.
This. Until I actually tried it and ended up quite liking it.

It hits the spot. The Arby's closest to my apartment is pretty legit. Curly fries for life.

Nope, luckily, low quality meat is my guess.
They do have mozzarella sticks on lock down for a fast food place.

I liked them back when it was actually faster to eat there than go to the grocery and cheaper to eat there than to sit in for an average restaurant's lunch menu. Last visit to Arby's for me netted me two sandwiches with store brand quality deli slices for $12 after a 20 minute wait in a drive through.
I haven't had fries from there that weren't crunchy burnt oil tasting double cooked zombie fries in 3 years, so I don't even bother anymore.
I'll still go if I have a good enough coupon ;p

Nah, just within the last month. The sandwich was just introduced about a month ago. I'm usually a beef n cheddar guy, but this sandwich made a homie reconsider.

Tell that to the people who haven't noticed Subway has been shit for 10 years and Jimmy Johns has always been shit
Holy shit!!! The dudes from Red Letter Media are hella young and in this. The fuck. Mind blown.
Subway isn't shit. (Though they were better when I was a kid, I admit)

I love Arbys i feel like i must have the only not shit operated store when i hear people complain. I always get hot fresh delicious food. The Reuben is on point, Brisket is on point and their big ass roast beef sammiches are o-so-good. I always get 2 tator cakes instead of fries.

It's come full circle and people ironically hate Arby's now.
Which means they actually like it.
Or they ironically buy their food. Which still means they buy it. I dunno. Something something Poe's Law.

I like getting potato cakes (basically thicker McDonald's hash browns) instead of fries, and they are usually fried to order so they are fresh.
I don't have a very high bar when it comes to food and have no problem eating at an upscale restaurant one day and a McDonald's the next, but Subway I just can't do. It's pretty much the only fast food place I refuse to go to.

I know that feel bro. Back in 10th grade I went on a Drama club field trip and I convinced our teacher to take us to Arbys for lunch since I really liked Arbys and there were a lot of Arbys virgins with us. I was so excited everyone would get to experience Arbys. Just an hour later, my classmates were complaining of stomach aches, nausea, and were almost universally in agreement that Arbys was the worst food they had ever eaten. I lost a lot of friends that day, and was ostracized in Drama after that because no one trusted me.
Arby's: A great way to lose your friends.
