'LOL F*CK OFF'! Move over, IHOP/IHOB: Carl's Jr. just found a GREAT way to kill our appetites

While Wendy’s, Whataburger, and IHOP/IHOB are duking it out over, well, burgers, Carl’s Jr. would like to get serious for a moment:

Welp. The regulations protecting #NetNeutrality expire today which means Big Internet™ companies now have a LOT more control over content/internet speeds. Nothing will change overnight but it's v possible your internet could slow down which would look a lil somethin' like this. pic.twitter.com/U0jWfAdVUf

You know what’s a great appetite killer? A burger restaurant talking about Net Neutrality.

How do you do fellow tech policy nerds https://t.co/8blc6eu1yg

Idk about you guys, but I seem to remember watching this commercial in crystal clear quality from you well before #NetNeutrality was implemented.

And lemme reiterate, I saw nothing wrong with the quality… believe me, I'd remember if I did. pic.twitter.com/4oPX76SGiJ

Carl’s Jr. opining on tech regulation, Wendy’s and A&W rattling sabers on IHOP/IHOb, Twitter billionaire issuing groveling apologies for eating Chick Fil-A, and Idiocracy was far, far too optimistic https://t.co/KsT7SPPoMa

I don't like this trend. Politicized brands are obnoxious. Grumble grumble. https://t.co/IwpV005CaS

Hey, Carl’s Jr. Just in case you’ve forgotten:

YOU'RE A BURGER PLACE https://t.co/8blc6eu1yg

Stick to what you know, guys.

You should stick to burgers

Or, you could sell burgers.
