• @BurgerKing was looking for love in all the right places on May 9 when workers changed a Boston location's sign to read: "@Wendys ... Prom?" and posted a picture to Twitter. United Press International reported that it took less than an hour for the red-headed fast-food heartthrob, just a few doors down, to respond: "OK, but don't get handsy and we have to be home by 10." In a classic love triangle, @MoonPie expressed his disappointment: "I knew I should've asked sooner." [United Press International, 5/10/2018]
