i cant believe i can justifiably say this but some of you might be too young to remember this meme
façade is a freeware game (which you can still download and play) that rose to internet fame around 2011-early 2012. it was an (imo) interesting concept where you played as a friend of a married couple visiting for the first time in years, using interactive text and game AI to either solve or help collapse their failing marriage. the graphics are extremely simple. the music is weird. the voice acting is pretty good.
it got to memetic quality pretty fast because of the….customizable nature of what you could say to them as well as the fact that trip (the husband) would forcibly remove you from the apartment and cause a game over if you said too many wrong things.
a big part of the meme was that if you said “melon” or “melons,” you’d almost always automatically be kicked out. this was bc the game always caught it as slang for tits regardless of context.
this shit feels like it was yesterday but it was almost an entire decade ago and im upset
