Categories: Internet Slang

Draw The Rest Of The Owlis an internet slang term often used humorously to refer to situations where someone provides incomplete or insufficient instructions or guidance. It originates from a meme inspired by a childrens drawing tutorial that abruptly jumps from drawing an owl’s head to an accomplished drawing of a complete owl, skipping the intermediate steps.

Examples:

Example 1:

Person A: “Hey, can you help me fix this computer issue?”
Person B: “Sure, what’s the problem?”
Person A: “Well, I clicked on something and now it’s broken.”
Person B: “Um, could you be more specific? Can you explain what exactly happened?”
Person A: “I don’t know, it just doesn’t work anymore.”
Person B: “Okay, you need to provide more information. ‘Draw The Rest Of The Owl’ here.”

Example 2:

Person A: “I’m having trouble making this recipe. Can you help me?”
Person B: “Of course! What step are you on?”
Person A: “Step 1 says to sauté the vegetables, but it doesn’t mention for how long or at what temperature.”
Person B: “Oh, that’s not very clear. They definitely ‘drew the head of the owl’ without giving you the rest. Maybe you can search for similar recipes to find more specific instructions.”

Synonyms:
