A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- No explicitly political content (about political figures, political events, elections and so on), !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca can be better place for that
- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejä tänne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen
- Ei selkeän poliittista sisältöä (poliitikoista, poliittisista tapahtumista, vaaleista jne) parempi paikka esim. !politicalmemes@lemmy.ca

Back in my day, we took whatever pixels we were given and we were glad for them! And before your precious pixels, we were happy to get ASCII pictures!

How is it that almost every brand except Doritos is the shit brand that I never buy because there's always something better? Is tge company's philosophy to make everything too sweet or something?
You find Quaker oats too sweet?
Of course it's not an "always has been" situation but a long long road of consolidation.
Is there a non potato version of this where the brands are readable?
Legit did not realize that cap't crunch, and starbucks are pepsi owned.
I still have a conspiracy theory that pepsi also owns 100% of small business resteraunts. You ever try ordering coke in a resteraunt??? "Is pepsi ok?"
Everytime.
Starbucks isn't owned by Pepsi. The meme lacks veracity. How dare they!?!
Not the stores, but the bottled and canned stuff that you can buy in the grocery stores
Ooooooooh. So they don't own starbucks. They just have a distribution agreement in place.
Theoretically starbucks COULD do that themselves, but it would cost a lot of upfront investment which may not end up being profitable. So they just say to pepsi "here's the formula, you bottle and ship it, and we'll pay you a fee".
In Germany Pepsi doesn't exist outside of grocery stores lol. Only small local brands can compete with Coka Cola in the restaurant game ironically
You've never ate at a Sub Way? They only have Pepsi Co products.
