Burger King learned the lesson that seemingly all other fast-food chains have learned at some point during their Twitter tenure: Don’t come for Wendy’s.

The beef began when Burger King posted a photo of the eponymous mascot standing in front of a Wendy’s, holding a cardboard sign that read “Roses are red, violets are blue, patties are round.” To which Wendy’s promptly delivered a KO to BK: “Looked who dropped by to see what Spicy Nuggets were supposed to taste like,” Wendy’s replied.
