25 Wendy's tweets that served a double shade burger in 2017

"Turn your hat around, you aren't Bart Simpson, and it isn't 1997."

Let's face it: 2017 was the perfect year to stress eat a Baconator and Frosty. Wendy's not only helped us feed our feelings, the mastermind behind the Wendy's Twitter account provided emotional comfort when the fourth Spicy Chicken Sandwich just didn't cut it.

The fast food chain has shown no mercy when it comes to its competitors. With its witty clapbacks, Wendy's kept our mouths watering as it continued to serve up beefy burgers with a cold side of shade.

Here are some of Wendy's most brutal tweets from 2017:

1. Wendy's did not come to play

2. Ouch

3. Hide yo' frosties, hide yo' fries because Wendy's is rating everyone out here

4. A Burger King burn done right

5. The pettiness is strong with this one

6. No one is safe from the red head's wrath

7. The only beef that matters

8. We need a napkin with all this spilled tea

9. Not a great holiday gift

10. It seems like their chicken sandwich isn't the only thing that's spicy

11. Savage level: 100%

12. To quote Demi Lovato, they're "sorry, not sorry"

13. Wendy's is always in first place ... for shade

14. That's probably not a lot

15. Don't come for Wendy's unless they send for you

16. A non-factor

17. Friendship doesn't last forever, according to this burger chain

18. They do have a point, dear

19. Seems like they're tired of your 'roast' requests

20. Okay, even we think this is a bit harsh (but we still love it)

21. A change in scenery is always nice

22. Their ego is as massive and as their many locations

23. Don't worry, they don't follow us either

24. Taking out the trash

25. When you ask for a roast from Wendy's, that's exactly what you're going to get

Thanks for the laughs, Wendy's. We look forward to seeing what you have in store next year.
