The image shows an outdoor scene with a blue and gray cash machine labeled "Get CASH Here" prominently displayed in the center. The machine has two ATM-style slots, each marked with "CASH" at the top. The website "Cash4Events.co.uk" is visible at the bottom of the machine. Two individuals are interacting with the machine: a woman with long dark hair wearing a white top and denim shorts, and a man in a dark t-shirt and black shorts holding a camera. The background features a cloudy sky, a white tent, and a white truck, suggesting an event setting. The ground is grassy, and there are metal barriers visible, indicating a controlled area.

A sinistra della scritta "CARLO VIVE?" c'è un'immagine di un giovane all'interno di un esagono, con accanto le date "2001" e "20 07" e due stelle rosse. Il muro è invecchiato e presenta segni di usura. In primo piano, ci sono delle barriere metalliche e alberi verdi sullo sfondo, con un cielo azzurro.

The image is a meme that celebrates the color purple. At the top, the text reads "fuck you people who don't like PURPLE" with "fuck you" crossed out. Below this, a color chart lists various shades of purple, including purple, mauve, violet, boysenberry, lavender, plum, magenta, lilac, grape, periwinkle, sangria, eggplant, jam, iris, heather, amethyst, rasin, orchid, mulberry, and wine. The chart is color-coded to show the different shades. To the right, there is an image of a bunch of grapes, and below it, a meme featuring a character labeled "me" standing defiantly against a giant labeled "people who don't like purple." The text at the bottom reads "share this post if you love PURPLE" and "fuck yourself if you don't love PURPLE," with "PURPLE" highlighted in purple.
