Oh just that square packing thing from the post. There have been many posts/jokes about it being a mathematically optimal solution that feels irritatingly wrong.

I find the whole thing funny because it's a very niche scientific concept that somehow made it to popular culture to the same level as a zombie game.

I wonder how many people would have understood both references just a few years ago. Yet today, not only someone made a meme out of this, but it also gets a good deal of upvotes. That's the internet culture I love!

That baffles me too. Being annoyed by an obnoxious ad instantly puts the brand in my naughty, to-boycott list.

Like, if I ever need to use a VPN, guess who I'll go out of my way to never, ever use? That's right NordVPN, go fuck yourself! I've never used you and I already hate you.

How do people care so little that it's still a beneficial strategy for brands?

The untold truth is that feelings were reportedly involved. Which obviously cannot be allowed to stand.
