    Well… Fuck

    I have that exact quesadilla maker in my house that we got as a wedding gift, and my youngest son got nearly that exact hoverboard for his birthday.

      Really what do people have against Arby’s?

      Maybe the American ones are shit because in Canada the fries are seasoned, crispy curls of tastiness and the sandwiches are pretty good, especially the beef n’ cheddar with that onion crown.

      I’m on keto most of the time but if I’m in a town with an Arby’s then I’m getting myself a large curly fries and two sandwiches.

      dude FUCK all this Arby’s slander online and on TV, man. That Family guy skit, every “vagina burger” post, y’all are just raking Arby’s through the coals for the hell of it, arent’cha?

      They have good sandwiches, man!! Ever had a smokehouse brisket? Those things are pretty good! French Swiss? Even better, is you ask me. And the shakes, the SHAKES! Good shit.

      AND instead of doing that annoying “start shit with other companies for fun” schtick every brand Twitter account did, they make food art of various franchises! It’s cool shit!

      The rustic, warm theming of the restaurants themselves, too. It’s just a nice place to sit down and enjoy a meal with friends on a road trip. You’ll dare your friend to chug a triple pepper sauce packet raw or some shit. It’s nice.

      Fuck all of you for slandering Arby’s. We are not friends.

      spoiler

      thanks to the person I’m replying to for the higher quality image w/o the tiktok watermark, though

        If they could just once give me hot curly fries that aren’t half-cooked, i wouldn’t dogpile them tbh. But they cant even do that

          yeahh I’ll give you that tbh they do undercook the curly fries a lot of the time

          But do you ever hear people say that‽ It’s always “gutter food that makes you shit,” never “undercooked curly fries.”

          Gah. I’m peeved, man.

          See?! This shit is what I mean. Did Arby’s CEO do something to piss off some Hollywood big-wig?! Why is this shit so prevalent?!?? It’s normal fast food, man!!

        I love how you wrote this like a counter-ad. Hard agree, jamocha shakes are the best cheap shake and Arby’s gets a totally bad rap. Just add Arbys or Horsey sauce to whatever you get to make it 10x better

        It was funny at first (several years ago), but anyone who’s still riding the “shit on Arby’s” train is so transparently desperate for laughs and attention that it’s just sad and pathetic.

    Anybody know of a proper term for this kind of humor? Where it’s themed as advertising but subverts the purpose of advertising?

    It reminds me of this: https://youtu.be/Xc_kFFmDZME

    I think it’s my favorite kind of humor and I want more.

      The post reminded me of the Apple Cabin Foods images by LiartownUSA : https://liartownusa.com/?s=Apple

      The whole site is pretty hilarious imo, used to be a tumblr blog a decade+ ago. Kind of reminds me of old-school somethingawful. I read the book they published too, funny stuff but kind of a vulgar, niche sense of humor that’s not everybody’s cup of tea.

      Seriously. Any “man” that needs to buy male-oriented products over generic asswipes should be forcibly made in to a eunuch. They’re already ball-less pieces of shit. They may as well serve a better purpose to society while more closely aligning to their gender identity…

          Better to go with “Asswipes for loose scrotumed micro dicks.”

          Pussies take a pounding and want nothing to do with losers who can’t wipe their asses without shame.

    Me looking at the shelf full of compressed freeze dried potato flakes with MSG, trying to imagine what the diffrence between “Philly cheese steak flavor pringles” and “cheese burger flavor pringles” could possibly be.

    Or trying to figure out why this glass jar of tomatoes with basil is worth twice as much as this can of high quality tomatoes and a bottle of dried basil.

    Or why there are 7 brands of paper towel, each with 2 varieties, each in 2 sizes of role, and with each coming in 5 different package sizes. Then looking at the system and realizing they all come from the same factory.
