About
Seconds Without Zaza / Minutes Without Zaza / Days Without Zaza, also known as Seconds No Zaza / Minutes No Zaza / Days No Zaza, refers to a catchphrase used in a series of memes prevalent on TikTok that portray physical discomfort caused by the lack of smoking weed, also known as "zaza." Over time, the periods "without zaza" notably became increasingly abstract, ranging from days to milliseconds.
Origin
On August 23rd, 2022, Twitter[1] user FrenchieHugo tweeted, "Me when no zaza," as the caption of an image of Emperor Calus from Destiny 2. The tweet received over 500 likes in five months (shown below, left). On November 20th, Twitter[2] user horribleimp tweeted, "day 3 no zaza," with an image portraying enlightenment. The tweet received over 80 likes in two months (shown below, right).
Memes with similar captions started surfacing on TikTok soon after. On December 18th, 2022, TikToker[3] jonathanrosado815 posted a video from Dead Space with text overlay reading, "2 minutes without Zaza," earning roughly 5,100 plays in one month (shown below, left). On December 26th, TikToker[4] nolsinthealpabet posted an almost identical video that earned more engagement, receiving roughly 79,600 plays and 3,600 likes in one month (shown below, right).
