When I need to mark my place in a book I never use an actual bookmark.
I usually reach for a Post-it Note,pornografi an old receipt, or a train ticket to wedge in between the pages, but as a new literary-themed meme highlights, some place-holding methods are far more extreme.
In an absurdly unhinged brand tweet on Monday, Chex Mix trolled followers by writing, "Don't have a bookmark? Try using Chex Mix instead." The tweet also included two appalling photographs of a bunch of rye chips, breadsticks, pretzels, and crackers acting as a bookmark — a sight that could give any sensible book-lover heart palpitations.

The intentionally ridiculous shitpost from Chex Mix soon got the attention of another brand, Vitamin Water, and it wasn't long before exactly what you think would happen happened. An absolute sin.

The meme is funny to some, but many libraries, book stores, and publishing houses are publicly speaking out against the ruination of books and offering genuinely sensible alternatives.
