I’ve seen it go by dozens of times since Max Tempkin [1] made it back
in 2011, and each time it grated on me: why count the complexity
of creating the disposable spoon, but not the complexity of washing
it? Instead of phrasing my disagreement as a comment, though, I
decided to make a new version:
You know the thing where you see something on Facebook, start reading
it or composing a reply, and then you lose it? Yeah. I can’t
remember which of my friends shared this, and Facebook’s
limited-by-design searching didn’t turn it up either. So, being
unable to post my counter-meme in the appropriate place, I’ll just
leave it here until the next time I come across the original.
