The 'If You're In Line, Stay In Line' meme originated as a public service announcement during high-turnout elections to encourage voters to remain at polling stations despite long waits. It entered the internet's Hall of Fame as a versatile reaction used for any frustrating waiting period, from high-demand concert ticket drops to buggy video game launches and hype-driven retail releases. The phrase represents a mix of determination, collective struggle, and the humor found in endless digital queues. Its simplicity makes it the go-to template for mocking 'Sold Out' screens or the anxiety of being number 10,000 in a virtual line.
