As we've learned from the chaotic evil "Don't have couples hardcore sex videos with handcuffa bookmark?" meme from 2019, many items in this world are not meant to be placed between the paper pages of valuable reading material.
Bad bookmarks include everything from a pile of Chex Mix or a puddle of Vitamin Water, to a bunch of Gushers fruit snacks and a piece of chicken. Most suggestions made on Twitter last year were jokes, so we let them slide, but it's recently come to our attention that an actual human being once used a slice of cheese as a bookmark, which is absolutely unacceptable.
On Tuesday, the University of Liverpool Library tweeted photographic evidence of this crime against books. "This is not a bookmark," the account declared, and posted a cursed photo of a discolored, oily, old slice of cheese that's still wrapped in plastic.

The social media manager for the University of Liverpool's library went on to joke that when talking to a pest control man about mice in the library they claimed to have no idea why the little critters were sniffing around the books. This was, of course, before a literal slice of cheese was found in a library book. Now things are starting to make a bit more sense.

Anyway, Library Twitter stepped up to the challenge and also shared some of the horrifying bookmarks they've found over the years. Spoiler alert: The thread got real... gouda.

Do you remember in Finding Nemowhen those three sharks gather together to say "fish are friends, not food?" In the spirit of that quote, remind yourselves on a semi-regular basis that slices of cheese slice are food, notbookmarks. Glad we had this chat!
