Does anyone else hate Arby’s?

19

Jun 21, 2023, 12:17 PM

So, I was just taking a break from finalizing my 4th of July fireworks order and saw a tweet from Arby’s bragging about the smell of their meat. I get bragging about how your meat smells, but their tweets send me into a fit of rage. It happens every time, but for some reason I can’t get myself to unfollow them. It’s like “hate watching” SEC football at 3:30 on Saturdays.

As y’all know, Arby’s stopped serving potato cakes in May of 2021 and I still haven’t found a suitable fried potato replacement. McDonald’s breakfast hash browns are pretty solid, but they stop serving them at 10:30 which means I have to get up early and they get too soggy later in the day if you try to order enough to last into the afternoon.

It has gotten to the point where I even get mad when driving by an Arby’s. I’ve caught myself yelling at other drivers on the road around me. I still feel bad for giving the finger to a little old lady who was taking too much time to turn left last November. I didn’t know it was a little old lady until it was too late and it made me sad the rest of the day. I blame Arby’s for this obviously.

Anyhow, my therapist has told me to think happy thoughts whenever I feel this way. Naturally, I take a deep breath and start thinking about Clemson football. Today it was especially bad and I started thinking about what would happen if Clemson eliminated something I love, like the run down The Hill. I’m finally over the balloon banishment of 2018 and don’t want to go through that again.

I sometimes think it would be easier to be a fan of a school like Ohio State or Auburn where they don’t have any traditions that matter.

End rant. Go Tigers!

now they only offer it as a combo. As for their shakes they promote for $1, never have to worry about them as their FRICKIN shake machine is NEVER working! Been inoperative for like over 4 months now.

So, pretty much written Arby’s off.

I think it's fair for you to be angry and you shouldn't beat yourself up for giving that old hag the finger, she likely deserved it. The problem with Arby's for me isn't the missing potato cakes, or the delicious jamocha shake. It's that atrocious meme that went around years ago and now all I can think of when i see or hear arby's is: Hope Solo. iykyk. I won't go into more detail than that. It's too traumatic.

Dont get me started on the turnovers, they also dropped the cherry turnover several yrs ago. That really made me mad as that was the only desert I ever ordered from a fast food place.

Oh I tried it when my kids were young 3-7ish. They didn’t care but I sure did. I’m not super picky about fast food but it sure got my attention, in a bad way. To be fair, I haven’t given it a chance in the last decade as I just have better options. I’m beyond saving a few bucks on pizza anyway as my son is starting his sophomore year in college and my daughter just got her license. 😉
