Netizens don’t need a special occasion to churn out memes, or lose time in turning those into a red-hot trend. we’ve always been an admirer of before-and-after scenarios, so we are extremely amused at a brand new meme trend that has taken Twitter by storm. It compares life before the arrival of Instagram and after it, within the most hilarious ways. Even big enterprises couldn’t help but take part the fun. Well, one in every of them is food delivery app Zomato, which has given a humorous twist to the present trend.
We all realize the 21st century ritual of taking pictures before digging into a decent platter. But Zomato shows us where it all started. The post read, “Before Instagram: eats food. After Instagram: waits for the friend to click pictures… tries to eat food”. The ordeal doesn’t end there if the friend thinks the photos weren’t ok.
Paytm also chipped in with a tweet, “Before Instagram: Paytm. After Instagram: Binod”. This post is paying homage to a viral meme trend in 2020 when Twitter users shared all types of hilarious memes using the word “Binod”. Some memes never get old!
Another page, PaytmFirstGames, commented, “Before Instagram: Pray before you Eat. After Instagram: Click before you Eat”. On this post, Zomato was tagged.
We caught another popular app jump onto the bandwagon. Dating app Tinder showed us how Instagram had affected relationships and dating. within the post, it read, “Before Instagram: awaiting them to message 24×7. After Instagram: sliding into their DMs 24×7”. Gone are the times of SMS, but the impatient expect a reply hasn’t ended yet, right?
Stationery company Luxor India’s post stressed that art survived before yet as after Instagram. “Before Instagram: Offline art sessions. After Instagram: Online art sessions”.
Twitter users also stole the show with their memes. A user named Sindhi Chhokro showed us the recognition of Instagram Reels today.
Another user named Yash Mahajan commented on the number of knowledge expenditure that we’ve got normalised nowadays.
The photo-sharing app also changed our views of beauty and altered every day-to-day object into an “aesthetic” presence.
Now, that’s quite long list of the various ways within which Instagram has changed our lives.
