Sagrada Familia Finishing After 140 Years, But Gen Z Asks Why It’s Not Just a Printer Job
In a plot twist only a long-suffering construction worker could appreciate, Barcelona’s iconic Sagrada Familia is finally set to wrap up its 140-year build, expected to be completed by 2026. But instead of celebrating the end of Gaudi’s masterwork, the internet has decided the real ironic scandal is why it took so long. Memes are flooding timelines, comparing the building’s timeline to a software update stalled at “installing for 140 years” and suggesting that if the architect had just bought a 3D printer in 1882, we’d all be done. The irony? The church’s grand finale is being roasted not for its architectural splendor, but for its shocking lack of a Kickstarter-funded drone delivery system.
