DUBAI: Last week, Facebook introduced 鈥淔acebook Stories鈥� a feature similar to the 鈥淪tories鈥� feature on photo and video-sharing app Snapchat.
On Snapchat, users can post videos to the 鈥淪tories鈥� section, which can be viewed for 24 hours before they expire. In August, 2016, Instagram launched a similar feature, in which posts also expire after 24 hours.
Most recently, Facebook decided to launch a copycat feature, placing it front and center on user鈥檚 news feeds.
Internet users did not let the likenesses slide, posting a hilarious flurry of memes about the strangely similar features on three of the world鈥檚 biggest social media platforms.
Everything from an Excel spreadsheet to Hollywood actor Owen Wilson鈥檚 teeth are given the 鈥淪tories鈥� feature, in what has become known as the 鈥淲ill Now Have Stories鈥� meme trend.

Bananas and calculators were not spared.

Neither were buses, Diet Coke cans or McDonalds.

Even home pregnancy tests were given the feature.
