Aaaaand Its Gone meme template with example captions

Origin

The meme comes from South Park, featuring a bank teller character who cheerfully demonstrates to a customer how quickly a deposit disappears — the moment the money hits the counter, he sweeps it away with "Aaaand it's gone." The clip spread as an advice animal image macro on Reddit around 2011–2012, used to caption any situation where something valuable vanishes almost instantly — money, time, motivation, opportunities. The format stuck because the delivery is so matter-of-fact, which makes the loss feel even more absurd.
