In meme culture, "X Will Return" is used humorously to signify the inevitable return or recurrence of something – be it a person, an object, a situation, or even a recurring thought or problem. It's applied to various relatable scenarios, from a friend's temporary absence to a recurring chore, or even the return of a weekday after a weekend.
