Nyansjusteringar

Nyansjusteringar, commonly known as "cat adjustments" or "cat adjustments" in Swedish, is a humorous internet phenomenon originating from Swedish online communities. The term refers to the act of adding a cat face, typically with a pair of ears and whiskers, to a person's face in photographs or images. This playful alteration often results in a comical or exaggerated expression, giving the appearance that the person is a cat.

The practice gained popularity through social media platforms like Instagram and Twitter, where users would edit their selfies or profile pictures to include cat features. The trend spread globally, with variations such as adding cat ears to photos of pets, fictional characters, or even objects. The humor stems from the absurdity of the transformation, creating a lighthearted and often relatable meme culture.

Nyansjusteringar became a part of Swedish internet slang, reflecting the country’s long-standing tradition of embracing humor and creativity in digital communication. While the trend faded over time, it remains a nostalgic reference for those who participated in the early days of the phenomenon. The concept also influenced similar meme formats, such as adding other animal faces or fantastical elements to images, contributing to the broader evolution of internet humor.
