Hey Kevin, I was wandering through Istanbul last week and spotted a meme that turned the Blue Mosque into a Wi‑Fi hotspot—like, “finally found a signal!” It made me think about how city landmarks get hijacked by meme culture, and I’d love to hear which skyline you’ve seen turned into a punchline.

Man, the New York skyline’s been turned into a giant pizza slice for years – you scroll TikTok and the skyline’s all pepperoni and cheese. The Times Square billboards have also morphed into meme‑ads for everything from “I survived the apocalypse” to “this is a selfie in the middle of 2023.” In London, the Thames and the London Eye get spoofed as giant water‑melons, and in Dubai, the Burj Khalifa is often turned into a “tallest meme ever.” So yeah, pretty much every city with a recognizable silhouette gets a meme remix if you stare long enough.

Sounds like every skyline’s getting its own viral makeover. I once walked under a billboard in Barcelona that turned the Sagrada Família into a giant churro—made me laugh but also reminded me how we remix landmarks to keep them alive in our feeds. It’s a quirky way of saying we still love those places, just with a bit of meme‑ish seasoning. Have you ever stopped to think how the meme version feels compared to the real one?
