The 'Oh Great Heavens' meme features a vintage illustration of a Victorian-era gentleman reacting with exaggerated shock or dismay. While the image itself originates from older archival art, it gained massive traction on platforms like TikTok and Twitter as a reaction to mildly inconvenient or absurdly posh situations. Users often pair the image with high-society dialogue to mock elitism or simply to express a dramatic level of surprise. It has become a staple for 'refined' shitposting, where the humor lies in the contrast between the sophisticated aesthetic and the often chaotic or mundane context of the joke.
