Hey! We’re giving away a $25 Wendy’s gift card. Want to enter? Then read on. <\/p>\n

Damn. That was such a lazy intro. Usually, they’re a bit more elaborate. Maybe it’s because I’m not excited about giving away a $25 Wendy’s gift card. I should be because they have those new Signature Sides, but I’m not. Maybe I’m not excited because I have to drive in our country’s worst traffic<\/a> to get to the nearest Wendy’s in order to purchase the gift card we’re giving away.<\/p>\n

YAY! WENDY’S GIFT CARD PRIZE DRAWING!<\/p>\n

Ugh. Even though it was all in caps and used exclamation points, I’m afraid the previous sentence had no emotion.<\/p>\n
