There was once a time when the social media managers of fast food companies had to either ignore trolls or respond to them with passive aggressive but polite comments. But 2017 is a brand new world, folks, where sh*t gets real.

Case in point: last week, Wendy's posted on Twitter bragging about their fresh beef, because why not!? Yay beef:

Shortly thereafter, Twitter user @NHride served Wendy's some fresh beef of their own by calling them liars and a "joke." Wendy's did not take that sitting down (related: "Sorry to hear you think that but you're wrong" will now be my new catchphrase in all arguments).

It didn't end there, because few things do on Twitter. @NHride continued to challenge the possible existence of this so-called "fresh beef."

So Wendy's posed this pretty simple question:

Text, Line, Font, Colorfulness, Black, Black-and-white, Pattern, Space, Circle, Number, pinterest

@NHride responded to with a diss:

Text, White, Colorfulness, Line, Font, Pattern, Azure, Black, Electric blue, Majorelle blue, pinterest

At which point Wendy's dropped this clapback:

Text, Font, Logo, Circle, Coquelicot, Trademark, Screenshot, pinterest

And yeah:

Lip, Hairstyle, Chin, Forehead, Eyebrow, Jaw, Long hair, Brown hair, Hair coloring, Eyelash, pinterest

Apparently, that burn was so sick that @NHride actually deactivated their account.

And when Twitter user @Fraxtil posted the exchange on Facebook, another user pointed out that Wendy's has a "history of savagery."

So, yea, lesson learned. Don't get on Wendy's bad side unless you're ready to get burned worse than a McDonalds breakfast patty.
