The premise of Twitter is so promising – freely express and share ideas with your fellow human beings in a short and concise 140-character (Now 280 characters for some) message. The social media platform should encourage dialogue to solve problems. However, Twitter often regresses into a loathsome shouting match. Very rarely is civil discourse utilized, except when two fast food chains lock horns in a mighty rap battle.

Wingstop’s official Twitter account parodied a verse from Migos’ “Bad and Boujee” to engage their audience.
Gamestop, Wingstop.

Saucin' and tossin' our wings in a pot, pot.

It caught the eye of Wendy’s Twitter and they jumped on Wingstop’s rap with a reference from Kendrick Lamar’s “Humble.”
Sit down, be humble. 😉

Wendy’s continues to excel at Twitter. This, of course, is not the first time that Wendy’s beefed with another fast food restaurant. Back in March, Wendy’s went hard on McDonald’s.
