Colour me surprised that friendzone memes are still a thing given the concept seems to be a 90% nice guy(TM) made concept.

looking at wikipedia it seems that there's even been research about the concept:

Binghamton University did a study on undergraduates from a midsize university in the northeastern United States. There were 562 participants with 305 identified as female and 257 as male. Of the 562 participants, 427 were exclusively heterosexual while 113 were not exclusively heterosexual. The participants were asked "Have you ever friend-zoned someone else?" and "Have you ever been friend-zoned?" The study found that 65.7% of exclusively heterosexual males have friend-zoned someone while 92.6% of exclusively heterosexual females have friend-zoned someone. The study also found that 75.2% of exclusively heterosexual males have been friend-zoned before while only 41.2% of exclusively heterosexual females have been friend-zoned before

unless the participants got severely misled about what the term means, I think this shows the idea is not going away any time soon

(also I just noticed, this was posted to an "antique memes" community)

That’s interesting that they actually did a study on it though I would point out that friendzoning someone and considering yourself friendzoned are different. Boy I didn’t even see the sub name so that’s on me.

There are some things that should be left to crumble into dust in an old cardboard box in the attic.

And then set on fire and thrown into a lake.

"It would be weird, you're like a brother to me" would probably be worse. I just picked it at random as an example.
