His wife will let him go out / I will just wait
A Waiting Skeleton meme.
Waiting Skeleton is a skeleton sitting patiently on a bench, covered in dust and cobwebs. Captions describe waiting forever: for a reply to a text, for customer service, for someone to finish getting ready "in five minutes". The skeleton is what's left of you by the time it's over. It's the meme for endless, hopeless waiting.
