In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “No Patience for Beginners” is an epic card of the Brazilian Memes pack, number 40 of the collection, and the 1st best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “No Patience for Beginners” meme mean?
The meme captures that blunt, no-filter impatience of someone who’s done explaining, teaching, or waiting for others to catch up. It became a ready-made phrase for any moment when a more experienced person, or just someone in a bad mood, cuts the conversation short and makes clear they won’t waste time on a beginner.
Where does the “No Patience for Beginners” meme come from?
In 2009, reporter Geovanna Tominaga was interviewing Susana Vieira for TV Globo's Vídeo Show when the actress took the microphone and said she had no patience for people who are just starting out. In 2018, on the show TV Fama, Geovanna said the phrase had been repeated and often used as bullying. In 2024, TV Brasil posted on its social media a 1991 interview in which Susana criticised young actors who do not like to memorise their lines and “get in the way even of us”, according to IstoÉ.
