The Skeleton at Computer meme, often referred to as the Waiting Skeleton, features a human skeleton prop seated in an office chair or at a workstation. It serves as a visual metaphor for someone who has been waiting so long for a specific event—like a webpage to load, a crush to text back, or a work project to finish—that they have literally decomposed. The image gained massive popularity on image boards like 4chan and Reddit in the early 2010s, frequently paired with the sarcastic caption 'Still Waiting' or 'OP will surely deliver.' It remains a timeless internet staple for expressing humor regarding extreme delays, procrastination, and the feeling of being forgotten in a digital world.
