MEMernet: Honoré, Different Memphis, and Memphis Bridge Crack

A roundup of Memphis on the World Wide Web.

The red stairs

Utah-based guitar string and accessory manufacturer, Black Harbor Sound, posted an announcement, featuring Memphis-based band Honoré astride a familiar set of red stairs, to Instagram last week. The guitar company was welcoming Honoré to their roster of endorsed artists with a shot of the frequently photographed stairs inside Crosstown Concourse. 

Memphis is Different

A hilarious tweet from @panduh__ said, “Memphis is DIFFERENT different.” The tweet showed a screenshot of several messages from a DoorDash delivery person who was picking up from the Happy Mexican.

“Aye, bruh,” the message reads. “They said they can’t make yo food cuz they chefs arguin. They said cancel the order.”

Cracking up

Memphis Bridge Crack, the official unofficial Twitter account of the crack in the Hernando DeSoto Bridge, has kept the comedy flowing as strong as the waters below it.

For example, on a tweet from a Wall Street Journal story that noted “how one failed bridge in Memphis is costing business,” the Crack commented, “Ahem. I think you mean one *failed inspection team.* I didn’t do any of this myself.”
