The Cake Slice meme, often featuring a visual of a massive portion of cake being cut next to a tiny sliver, is the ultimate internet shorthand for unequal distribution. It originated as a way to mock how people or entities claim to share resources while keeping the lion's share for themselves. Over time, it evolved into a more personal relatable format used to describe how we spend our time, money, or emotional energy. Whether it's a tiny slice representing 'sleep' and a massive one representing 'scrolling on my phone,' the template remains a staple for pointing out life's many imbalances with a sugary, humorous twist.
