This image is a screenshot of an X (formerly Twitter) post featuring a 4-panel comparison meme. The meme displays identical standard Bic Cristal ballpoint pens under four different years: 1955, 1985, 2016, and 2026, showing that the pen's design has not changed at all across the 71 year span. The post's caption calls Bic 'the world's most arrogant brand' with a laughing emoji, humorously joking about the brand's refusal to update the design of their classic, widely popular pen, implying they are so confident in their product that they do not need to alter it to keep up with market trends.

This is a two-panel comedy meme that jokes about the incredibly wide, diverse range of unrelated products manufactured by the Japanese company Yamaha. The top panel shows a simple hand-drawn Yamaha factory with a production line starting with a Japanese World War II warplane, followed by Yamaha's well-known pianos. A simple drawn onlooker comments 'I guess we're doing war planes now' reacting to the unexpected non-musical product. In the bottom panel, the factory outputs a huge pile of completely unrelated Yamaha products: Vocaloid characters (Hatsune Miku and other popular Vocaloids, as Yamaha created the Vocaloid voice synthesizer software), multiple types of musical instruments, a boat, a motorcycle, and even a sewing machine. The onlooker now reacts with confusion saying 'Wtf is happening'. The joke relies on the well-known online fact that Yamaha has one of the most diversified business portfolios of any major company, far beyond their reputation as a musical instrument brand.
