Where does the “Stay, There’ll Be Cake!” meme come from?
The expression is older than the meme: it is what someone says at a birthday party to keep a guest from leaving before the birthday song. According to Know Your Meme, the meme was created in 2011 on Tumblr, built on grandmother-style phrases and tied to fake Twitter accounts of Nair Bello and Hebe Camargo, and Veja São Paulo ran an article on it. In June 2019, a video of two congresswomen, one of whom says “fica, vai ter bolo”, brought the phrase back. By then nobody was saying it seriously anymore.
