The Arby's social media account is amazing

mrmickfran · Apr 6, 2018

They make tons of references to nerd shit and I love it.

"We're thinking of updating our menu

"It's time to duel"

"Let's rock baby"

"Overcome the impossible"

"Understand, Understand, the concept of love"

"You might call this a post for 90's gamers, but we think of it as millennial fare"

There's a bunch more on their Facebook/Twitter. Best social media account. Eat your heart out Wendy's.

I follow the spoof Nihilist Arby's account on Twitter. It's pretty good.

Dracil · Apr 6, 2018

Why not? I think it's a relevant counterpoint that tarnishes their amazingness.

Seriously. I just wanted to share their social media account's posts and now the whole thread is ruined.

Cybersai · Apr 6, 2018

And yet this still won't make me eat at them. I tried Arby's at a mall once and I got the basic turkey sandwich and it was nothing. Dried out 3 pieces of meat with cheese, what a waste of money.

Raw64life · Apr 6, 2018

I personally enjoy the Arby's Twitter account and also think the food is a lot better than The Simpsons gives it credit for

Everyone beat me to my hot take. Disappointed in you Arby's.

I'm mostly just on this site to discuss literally anything else haha

I think the premise is funny but I can only be told God isn't real and death is forever some many times before I feel like I'm watching a rerun of Rick and Morty.

Oh, they do? Fuck them then. I don't care if the cutouts or whatever those are look cool.

That's why you get the French dip. It's got the au jus that makes you go au yeahhh.

Oh, fuck, they didn't stop advertising yet. That sucks.

"Muh vidya games"

It's absolutely worth pointing out the contrast between Arby's shrewd, millennial-minded Twitter messaging and shameless financial endorsement of hate speech.

Deleted member 9135 · Apr 6, 2018

So are fast food chains going to follow Amy Brown's work on the Wendy's twitter handle (she's gone; someone else is posting behind the scenes now) and simply cater to geeks? How do you then distinguish yourself from the competition when all you're doing is replicating the same strategy?

BMW · Apr 6, 2018

I see they are following Wendy's excellent twitter game.

I'm stealing the "modern man children" bit from your post though. Describes pretty much how I feel about the "30 year old gamers".

Look as much as I dislike Laura, Arby's does have the right to keep her on if they want to. Not trying to offend any of you guys but cmon

Y'all have nearly 2000 posts on a video game forum between the two of you, what the fuck are you complaining about

Right, just let me enjoy my damn food.

Well let me edit this, I don't care about the twitter. I will eat the hell out of their food though.

passepied joe · Apr 6, 2018

Whoa, this company posted something wacky and geeky that I like! I'm going to eat at their restaurant now! I love Nintendo and Rick and Morty! :O

Praxis · Apr 6, 2018

I feel extra manipulated looking at these. It's like Ready Player One in advertising.

John Rabbit · Apr 6, 2018

It's possible to both like these tweets AND be frustrated and their choice of sponsorship guys.

Okay now this is just uncalled for. Slanderous.

Arby's has the right to keep her on, and we have the right to criticize them for it

Pretty much every other major company dropped, and Arby's was targeted heavily because they market to youth. Arby's continued support of Ingraham is deliberate. It's perfectly fair to point out their hypocrisy of courting millenial money with these ads while shoveling that money into political pundits who bully and endanger the very demographic Arby's is targeting

You fool me once, I'm done. First impressions are everything. I paid over $7 for that sandwich, it wasn't cheap.

Its the only fast food twitter worth following. Fuck Wendys and their tryhard cringy campaign against McDonalds. The two twitters are not even comparable.

I hate #brands being cool on the Internet so much.

Didn'know they support Laura Ingraham, fuck them

This is one of the funnier and least expected thread backfires I've seen.
