I know there are two outside Paris. We took my wife’s parents back to her dad’s hometown this summer and because I don’t feel comfortable with driving 5 hours to the west coast after flying overnight from North America we usually try to find a place to stay near Paris. We discovered our hotel would be about a half-hour’s drive from the Costco southwest of Paris and we joked about driving there after checking in so we could troll friends and family on social media that our first meal in France was a €1.50 Costco hot dog. I would be genuinely curious to check it out sometime if we ever had the time, just to see what’s the same and what’s different.

Yes, but I think the headstone comment is relating to all the products killed by Google, often referred to as the Google Graveyard, a term that’s been around since at least 2013. Nothing to do with Google being evil or not.

It seems they offer it for €1.50 in Europe, too!

They’ve been killing good products for well over a decade

I have always found Pepsi sweeter than Coke

I saw the original clip; the kid saying “six seven!” and doing a bobbling hand gesture looked and sounded pretty ridiculous and I can absolutely see how it would get turned into a meme, especially if you repeat it enough on TikTok-style short videos
