Sliver of Overlap meme template

Find the one tiny agreement between two mostly separate preferences. Put that compromise in the middle caption and make the outer labels broad enough to justify the narrow overlap.

Download blank template

Two broad circles barely meet along a thin central strip. A pointer draws the eye to the narrow meeting place, emphasizing how little the two categories have in common. The caption order follows the picture from left circle through the overlap to the right circle. It suits negotiations over dinner, music, or weekend activities, where a single modest option pleases everyone. Two people might disagree about every outing except the bakery. Keep the compromise concrete and short, allowing the oversized circles to exaggerate the surrounding disagreement.
