This meme is flawed by its cluttered messaging. The problem is the sequence. The bottom message in memes is typically a reply in opposition or in contrast to all that comes before it. But in this case, I believe the top quote was added later to an existing meme without adding any value or humor and waters down the original punchline because there is no contrast in viewpoint. I recommend we restore the meme to it's supposed original form where the punchline clearly responds to the photo alone, and not to the poorly written statement at the top.

There are only 4 continents:
America (contiguous land mass)
Eurasia (contiguous land mass)
Africa
Antarctica
Australia is probably an island, and in the spirit of our commander in Chief, I'm just going to declare it one.
Three of the four continents, along with the world's biggest island, start and end with the same letter.
North America and South America are separated by water.

Man-made and not down to the Continental level. Keep goin tho!
Still separated.

Lol ok buddy. Not getting sucked into delusions today.
Theoretically, they are separate tectonic plates, which I think (emphasis on "I think") why they are considered separate continents.
Frank begrudgingly accepted N and S Am as separate continents on vHerf.
Yeah, no matter what new terminology the new professors are pushing it would be geographically and linguistically necessary to differentiate if some European traveler in either N or S America called their friend back home and said “guess what continent I’m on?”
I was expecting more Wile E. Coyote in this thread.

Based on all the conversation generated by this one, on the vHerf and in the forum, I'd say that the brain really sabotaged her sleep with this one. I'd say it stands as-is.
Upon further review, every continent, no matter how many there are, start and end with the same letter:
The North American continent
The south American continent
The Australian continent
The European continent
The Asian continent
The African continent
The antarctic continent
The pangean continent
That is all.
I'm bringing in this one just to admire it. The joke (in my opinion) is an identical twin to the truth. The name is hilarious and almost necessary, but If anybody wanted a Sunday side hustle and was willing to set up a food truck or a booth it could work. The goal would be to remain clear of copywrite or trademark infringements while still dropping hard hints in signage that your business is in the business of providing satisfaction when you-know-who won't.
This one was mine and I didn't catch any problems until I had posted it.
First and worst thing is the meme starts the old proverb wrong.
It should not have been teaching a man to fish.
It needs to be, "give a man a fish, you feed him for a day"
Next, I broke the "most interesting man" rule.
If you use that guys image the meme must be phrased as follows:
I don't always insert premise here
But when I do, I always insert punchline here.
I'll try not to do that again.
I tried to re-word the joke using the "most interesting man" template and get the proverb right, but I was not satisfied with any results of that effort.
I think I'll try another image.
It was funnier before because it was wrong.
At least you had a man in the meme the first time around. Better have another go at it.
BS. She's not the student. She's the teacher.
