ISTOCK/GETTY
Sometimes, the viral void coughs up something particularly bizarre.
This is one of those times.
Carter Wilkerson, a regular dude, likes chicken nuggets.
A lot.
In particular, it is Wendy’s chicken nuggets which tickle his taste buds, and in an effort to try and get a year’s free supply (because that’s clearly what your Twitter account is for), he tweeted his idol:
Yo @Wendys how many retweets for a year of free chicken nuggets?— Carter Wilkerson (@Carter Wilkerson) 1491445903
@carterjwm 18 Million— Wendy’s (@Wendy’s) 1491445934
He would need 18 million retweets for his year's free supply.
@Wendys Consider it done— Carter Wilkerson (@Carter Wilkerson) 1491445983
FYI, Wilkerson is on 1.54 million.
Even Wendy's is surprised...
@hellxxn @carterjwm Honestly has gotten way more RTs than we expected.— Wendy’s (@Wendy’s) 1491490418
People are wholly invested in this noble endeavour...
@Wendys @carterjwm Yo carter! You got my retweet. Get those nugs fam.— Jerry Miller (@Jerry Miller) 1491535724
There's even talk of a Facebook page...

Is Wendy’s afraid?
@MarkPygas @hellxxn @carterjwm Nah, not afraid. It would honestly be pretty awesome if he got that many.— Wendy’s (@Wendy’s) 1491511987
At the moment, the highest number of retweets a tweet has ever garnered, that we could find anyway, was Ellen's famous Oscars selfie in 2014.
If only Bradley's arm was longer. Best photo ever. #oscars http://t.co/C9U5NOtGap— Ellen DeGeneres (@Ellen DeGeneres) 1393815973
That got 3.2 million retweets.
It looks like carter could break that record.
