The 'The Party Ended an Hour Ago and He's Still Here' meme perfectly encapsulates the excruciating social tension of overstaying one's welcome. Typically featuring a character standing awkwardly in a corner while the host looks visibly drained or ready for bed, the template resonates with anyone who has ever felt trapped by a guest who can't take a hint. It gained traction on platforms like Twitter and Reddit as a way to mock lack of social awareness or to personify unwanted things—like a lingering cold or a persistent computer update—that refuse to disappear after their time is up. Its humor lies in the universal relatability of the 'internal scream' felt during these prolonged and unintended goodbyes.
