The 'Give Me a Drink, Bartender' meme originates from the obscure 1991 interactive movie game 'Town With No Name' for the Commodore CDTV. The scene features a poorly animated cowboy who walks into a saloon, demands a drink, and then spectacularly fails to catch the glass as it slides across the bar, causing him to crash through a window. It gained viral fame on YouTube and social media due to its awkward voice acting and surreal, low-budget aesthetics. Today, the template is primarily used to represent feelings of total exhaustion, social awkwardness, or the immediate need for a drink after witnessing chaotic events online.
