POV: You Check the Time at 3am

This meme displays a novelty wall clock with a wavy dark wood frame. The clock face with Roman numerals is printed over an illustration of Jesus Christ, who is posed looking upward directly at the clock face, creating the visual gag that Jesus himself is checking the time. The text overlay above the clock reads 'Jesus Christ would you look at the time', which operates as a double pun: it is a common colloquial exclamation people use when surprised by how late it is, while also literally describing the visual of Jesus in the illustration looking at the clock's time. The original title frames the joke as the relatable experience of checking the time unexpectedly at 3am when staying up late.
