The 'Sneed's Feed & Seed' meme originates from a split-second background gag in the 1999 Simpsons episode 'E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt).' The humor stems from the sign's rhyming scheme; if Sneed sells 'Feed and Seed,' the implication is that the previous owner, Chuck, sold items that rhymed with his own name, leading to a crude double entendre. While the joke was a subtle Easter egg for years, it was revitalized on 4chan's /tv/ board around 2012, eventually becoming a staple of internet shitposting culture. It is now used as a meta-joke to test linguistic recognition or simply to frustrate those not in on the 'Formerly Chuck's' punchline.
