In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Not today, tomorrow” is a rare card of the Spanish Memes pack, number 106 of the collection, and the 104th 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 “Not today, tomorrow” meme mean?
Saying “hoy no, mañana” means refusing a task today with total confidence, pretending tomorrow will somehow be more convenient. It works as a deadpan way to dodge a chore, a reply, or a decision without any real justification.
Where does the “Not today, tomorrow” meme come from?
The line comes from a sketch performed by comedian José Mota on La 1, Spain's main public broadcaster, where his character shuts down any request with that same flat refusal. The clip later spread online on its own, stripped from the original show, and turned into a catchphrase Spanish viewers borrow whenever they want to postpone something indefinitely.
- 2011The line is already circulating as a recognizable quote on Spanish forums and social media
