Yeah, so, sorry for the Facebook post, but it looks to me like the social media coordinator for Wendys has gone insane. Certifiably bonkers.

See for yourself

At what point do we intervene?

    I don’t understand…this can’t be official. Since when did the Facebook equivalent of deep fried memes become a real thing that corporations want to emulate?

      To be frank, it doesn’t seem that much more insane than having a Facebook page for a fast food restaurant. I never understood people who socialize with the marketing departments of corporations.

        Meh, it could have it’s uses. Local restaurants around me have Facebook pages, some even only have that rather than their own website. They advertise specials, events and whatever. I don’t think it’s out of the ordinary for a business to try and engage with potential clientele on a platform like Facebook, and I don’t think it is super weird that people use that platform to engage with the business. What I do find weird is a national corporation posting Facebook messages like a 10 year old trying to impress their 14 year old cousin about the thing they did last week.

    I’m sure it’s a marketing technique. Certainly gets people looking at and talking about Wendys.

    Edit: looks like a parody of /r/oldpeoplefacebook from Reddit.
