Where’s the beef? On Twitter, apparently. Fast food giant Wendy’s has earned itself quite a few new fans and some media love after a hilarious social media takedown of one irate customer.
The brutal back and forth started after the since-deleted Twitter account for @NHride (since deleted) took a shot at the chain for its slogan, “Always fresh, never frozen.”
Right before the New Year, the Twitter account for Wendy’s sent out the seemingly innocuous message: “Our beef is way too cool to ever be frozen.”
@NHride wrote back, “your beef is frozen and we all know it. Y’all know we laugh at your slogan ‘fresh, never frozen,’ right? Like you’re really a joke.”
At first, Wendy’s responded gently but after the critic kept coming back for more, the fast food restaurant finally decided it was time for him to get served:
The takedown was so severe that @NHride actually deleted their Twitter account. While we’d never endorse cyberbullying in any form, this vintage clap back is one people simply could not help but applaud:
And think about it, it’s not very often that social media decides to rally around a corporate entity, especially one delivering fast food. But that’s just a testament to how quick witted the anonymous voice behind Wendy’s Twitter account is. Whoever that person is should immediately be up for a raise, including an unlimited supply of Frosty’s to compliment that cold, cold throttling.
And lest you think this is just a one-off joke, check out this thread to see the carnage spill out to include any who test the wrath of our red-headed burger boss.

Grieving couple comforting each other
This response to someone grieving a friend might be the best internet comment ever
When someone is hit with the sudden loss of a friend or loved one, words rarely feel like enough. Yet, more than a decade ago, a wise Redditor named GSnow shared thoughts so profound they still bring comfort to grieving hearts today.
Originally posted around 2011, the now-famous reply was rediscovered when Upvoted, an official Reddit publication, featured it again to remind everyone of its enduring truth. It began as a simple plea for help: “My friend just died. I don't know what to do.”
What followed was a piece of writing that many consider one of the internet’s best comments of all time. It remains shared across social media, grief forums, and personal messages to this day because its honesty and metaphor speak to the raw reality of loss and the slow, irregular path toward healing.
Below is GSnow’s full reply, unchanged, in all its gentle, wave-crashing beauty:
Why this advice still matters
Mental health professionals and grief counselors often describe bereavement in stages or phases, but GSnow’s “wave theory” gives an image more relatable for many. Rather than a linear process, grief surges and retreats—sometimes triggered by a song, a place, or a simple morning cup of coffee.
In recent years, this metaphor has found renewed relevance. Communities on Reddit, TikTok, and grief support groups frequently reshare it to help explain the unpredictable nature of mourning.
Many readers say this analogy helps them feel less alone, giving them permission to ride each wave of grief rather than fight it.
Finding comfort in shared wisdom
Since this comment first surfaced, countless people have posted their own stories underneath it, thanking GSnow and passing the words to others facing fresh heartbreak. It’s proof that sometimes, the internet can feel like a global support group—strangers linked by shared loss and hope.
For those searching for more support today, organizations like The Dougy Center, GriefShare, and local bereavement groups offer compassionate resources. If you or someone you know is struggling with intense grief, please reach out to mental health professionals who can help navigate these deep waters.
When grief comes crashing like the ocean, remember these words—and hang on. There is life between the waves.
