So… did you hear? IHOP is changing its name to IHOB. No, the B does not stand for “breakfast” as most people guessed. In fact, pretty much no one guessed correctly that the B would in reality stand for, wait for it… burgers. I know, right? What are they thinking?
Ah yes. Now I get it. Do something stupid and get the internet all riled up about it and then rake in all of the free (bad) publicity.

If that was their actual plan, it is certainly working because IHOP is getting broasted by the internet (get it? never mind) for changing their name to IHOB, but the most wicked burn has to go to Wendy’s never shy and always sharp-witted social media account.

Wendy’s wasn’t done though, because Wendy’s Twitter account is gangster like that.
Of course Wendy’s wasn’t the only Twitter account to go in on IHOB.
Even NASA weighed in because, 2018.
Just…stop.
