Reconstruction of Greek Philosopher Aristotle Based on His Bust
What it is: Every once in a while we see a truly non-sensical trend appear on the timeline that provides zero explanation to why it's funny other than it just is. Recently a group of I assume historians or scientists reconstructed what Aristotle most likely looked like based on his Bust, which led to Twitter users putting their own spin on it with popular faces that may look like him (or not) or just making fun of the reconstruction itself.
How brands can jump in: Use the exact phrase above, post a photo of your brand mascot or find a way to integrate your brand into the reconstruction. It's such a straight forward meme that that's really it.
Examples: 1, 2, 3
Urgency level: Warm, this meme is just heating up but since it's not tied to a specific moment, consider this one as evergreen as Aristotle's granite head sculpture.
