Online, short isolated chimes like this became popular because they instantly communicate a time change without dialogue or on-screen text. Editors on YouTube, TikTok and in memes use the noon strike to jump forward hours, introduce lunch scenes, or reset the pace of a skit. Its continued use comes down to clarity: almost everyone recognizes twelve chimes as midday.
