Unlikely Friends Bonding Over Shared Meals
Text content
when you don’t really have much in common but get together to eat every few months because you love & respect each other very much
Overview
The meme features text at the top that reads 'when you don’t really have much in common but get together to eat every few months because you love & respect each other very much'. Below the text is a photograph of two different animals, an opossum and a skunk, peacefully eating food next to each other outdoors on concrete: the opossum is eating mealworms scattered on the ground, while the skunk eats from a clear plastic container of dry food. The odd pairing of the two dissimilar animals serves as a cute, relatable visual metaphor for casual, long-standing friendships where people do not share many interests but still care deeply for each other and connect over shared meals.
