In internet slang, the term “There’s the rub” is often used to indicate that a problem or difficulty has arisen, creating a challenging or frustrating situation. It essentially conveys the notion that an issue or obstacle has been identified and is causing trouble.

Examples:

1. Person A: I’ve been working on this project for hours, and I just can’t seem to make any progress.
Person B: Ah, there’s the rub. Maybe you should take a short break and approach it with a fresh perspective later.

2. Person X: I’ve been trying to lose weight by exercising and eating healthily, but I’m not seeing any results.
Person Y: Well, there’s the rub. Losing weight requires consistency, patience, and sometimes a change in your approach. Keep pushing forward!
