The 'John Oliver We Got Him' meme originates from the HBO show 'Last Week Tonight with John Oliver' during a 2015 episode. In the clip, host John Oliver celebrates a major political or social development by pressing a large red button, which triggers a shower of confetti and the song 'The Walker' by Fitz and the Tantrums. The sequence parodies the dramatic 2003 announcement of Saddam Hussein's capture by Paul Bremer, who famously used the phrase 'Ladies and Gentlemen, we got him.' This clip is a staple for celebrating major victories, catching someone in a lie, or experiencing the satisfaction of a long-awaited outcome. It represents peak triumph, relief, and the 'gotcha' moment in internet arguments. Common use cases include software developers fixing a stubborn bug, sports fans reacting to a win, or someone finally proving they were right in a long-standing debate. Example captions include: 'When you finally find the missing semicolon in your code,' 'When the person who was ghosting you accidentally likes your photo,' and 'Me after successfully arguing my way out of a parking ticket.'
