The 'And Then There’s THIS Asshole' meme finds its roots in a parody of the 'Maude' sitcom intro featured in the animated series Family Guy. In the scene, Peter Griffin highlights a series of individuals before landing on a final character with aggressive disdain. This structure quickly became a popular internet format for singling out the one person, object, or event that spoils an otherwise positive situation. It is frequently used in gaming to complain about specific bosses, in tech to mock unwanted software updates, or in daily life to vent about relatable nuisances. The meme’s longevity stems from its blunt, comedic timing and its ability to perfectly capture the feeling of collective annoyance toward a specific target.
