Proposed amendment: the definition should note that Cucumber Guy was funny for exactly as long as it went unexplained. This entry is, unavoidably, part of the problem.
Cucumber Guy
'Sometimes you need to eat an entire cucumber' — a man slicing a whole cucumber into a deli container with a mandoline, adding a dressing, and shaking it, daily, all summer 2024. Cucumbers sold out in Iceland. The record's entry for a vegetable as a personality.

There was a version of Cucumber Guy that went round my family group chat about a month late, presented as new. I did not correct anyone. It was, for them, new, and that has to count for something.
