The 'My Time Has Come' meme originates from the 2008 animated film Kung Fu Panda, featuring the wise turtle Master Oogway. In this poignant scene, Oogway imparts his final wisdom to Shifu before peacefully dissolving into a flurry of peach blossoms and ascending. While originally a somber and philosophical moment, the internet repurposed the still image to represent situations involving a dramatic exit, acceptance of an inevitable fate, or the moment one is finally called upon to perform a specific task. It gained massive traction on platforms like Reddit and Twitter as a versatile reaction image for both wholesome and self-deprecating humor.
