A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

so the cashier knows where one customer's groceries end and the next begin. this feels like she's going to punish herself, buying his groceries, out of pettiness, i guess
so the cashier knows where your items end and can start the payment portion of checking out, getting you out the door more quickly
I don't put the divider up for the benefit of the person behind. I put it up for me. well, and also to be nice. but it benefits me
see, a reasonable person just leaves a gap. but some people think that if they cram the belt full, the cashier will somehow process everything more quickly.
same people who glare at you when you don't start loading items when the instant free space appears on the belt. like mf I got a cart full of stuff, and I know how to unpack onto the belt so they get packed back into the cart neatly, I need two feet to start laying out the big things. mfs want you to start the belt out with bananas and shit
I've never understood this either. If someone is holding things in their arms it's helpful, but if they have a cart then nothing is really gained. I can easily fill the conveyor belt by the time the person in front of me finishes paying. So getting started early feels like I am crowding them for no reason. Like flooring it between red lights; you're just wasting energy to wait anyway.
I think someone on 4chan once answered this question: It's the only form of segregation white folks are okayed to use, so they cling to it like they do guns and religion.
