Originally, this is what people used to say after giving a long, nonprofit speech or lecture devoted to spreading ideas, usually in the form of powerful talks given at the main TED (technology, entertainment and design) annual event or one of its many satellite events around the world.
By 2015, This phrase then got broken down and used whenever people finished typing up an extensively long social media post.
Then, after like, 2018, this phrase got even more deteriorated (mainly by Gen Z or Gen X trying to sound like Gen Z) to the point that people now say it after saying a sentence, or, even worse, a sentence fragment because they think they’re being funny.

Get the Talking Screws To A Hammermug. A phrase used to describe someone who's barely holding it together, but still managing to show up to life—often with chaotic vibes, questionable decisions, and a diet that can’t include bread.
