In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Dienstagmittag fertig” is a rare card of the German Memes pack, number 285 of the collection, and the 39th 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 “Dienstagmittag fertig” meme mean?

The meme promises a result with slightly comic confidence. The precise hour and the flat tone make it sound like a firm pledge, which is exactly why people post it when nothing is certain. It suits a late assignment, a building site, a video edit or a group project. It also works ironically, to tease someone who names a deadline with too much self-assurance.

Where does the “Dienstagmittag fertig” meme come from?

The phrase shows up in videos that gather the best one-liners of Michael Häupl, for years mayor of Vienna, uploaded to YouTube by Austrian media and fan channels. Several of those compilations replay his quick-fire sayings and unmistakable accent. Cut loose from its original setting, the line became a ready-made text for German-speaking chats, a kind of password between people who know the man.

How to use the “Dienstagmittag fertig” meme

  • Replying to a colleague who asks when the file will be ready: “Dienstagmittag fertig.”
