Actors in theatre say “thank you 15, thank you 10, thank you 5, thank you places”, etc. when the stage manager calls them for a show day. The numbers are how long they have until they need to be behind the curtain/ready and in the wings to preform.

Get the Thank you, tenmug. 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 thAnk yOumug. The quote dolphins said before they flew away in the first book of Douglas Adams's series "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy". They say this because they are more intelligent and tried to warn us of the Vogon's plan to destroy Earth. The reason the Vogons want to destroy Earth is to make an intergalactic freeway and earth Is in the way.

Get the thanks for comingmug. A sarcastic expression of gratitude often used to highlight frustration or irony in a situation. Typically employed when the speaker feels annoyed or hindered by circumstances, making it clear that the gratitude may not be genuine.
Being 20 and still facing screen time limits while my friends going to the movies to watch Threadpool has turned me into 'a master of overthinking'—thanks, delayed puberty!
