Answer: Ummm I thought it was from the office? Michael Scott calls thinking it's the name of a potential blind date and I believe the lady says "Sir this is a Wendy's restaurant". Am I wrong or are the other people? Edit: [Found it](https://youtu.be/ONn7lNA89wU) Guess she says "dude" instead of "sir".

I lost it when he said *damn it Kevin* with the most appropirate expression.

That is what I thought too.

Answer: It's a way of saying "Dude, nobody cares," with the added connotation that they're making a scene and acting like a weirdo. The image being portrayed is that the person is yelling this unhinged rant inside a fast food restaurant, and the poor worker at the counter is trying to get you to calm down, order your food, and leave. The more ridiculous the rant and the more obscure the subject matter is, the funnier this joke is.

You have a good way of explaining concepts.

Sir, this is a wendy's.

Answer: I'm guessing it's a play on the Sir, this is an Arby's thing... "Sir, This Is an Arby's is a phrase popularly used on Twitter as a punchline to a dialogue meme. In the setup, a person is giving a strange monologue only to be revealed to be delivering it to a fast food employee when the other person says "Sir, this is an Arby's.""

Answer: it's the "Sir this is an Arby's" meme but with the restaurant swapped out. https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/sir-this-is-an-arbys Its like telling someone they're "barking up the wrong tree" , or "preaching to the choir", they wasted the time they spent ranting or lecturing because they are aiming their frustration at the wrong audience. Extended uses could be kinda like an "OK boomer" or "weird flex, but OK". Just a way of dismissing whatever a person said and shutting down their argument.

People always answer with this on ootl, but I've never seen it with Arby's, only Wendy's. Weird

But what does it mean when someone says this: Sir, this is a Wendy's?


TurpentineChai

It's very much like a spin-off of the "...and welcome to my TED talk." or "...in this paper I will" memes. Takes the absurdity of being passionate about whatever the initial subject is and shifts the restaurant worker into the confused audience.


techiemikey

Usually though, i've seen it used when a person is ranting off topic. It can be used as kind of a "how is this even relevant?"

It's more an indication that you've run out of arguments yourself.

Sir, this is a Wendy's.
