Why it worked
The video likely resonated due to its commentary on generational differences in problem-solving and its use of a relatable, albeit slightly dark, meme format. The accompanying caption adds a layer of social commentary that could spark discussion.
Summary
The video presents a meme about how people used to dispose of razor blades by hiding them behind walls, implying this was a common problem-solving method for the boomer generation. It then overlays a caption stating "We won't be around. Sounds like someone else's problem."
