The line adapts a preparation quote widely attributed to Abraham Lincoln: give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe. Online creators kept the formal setup but replaced sharpening with gooning, a slang punchline that flips the lesson from diligence to distraction. The contrast between an old motivational saying and modern internet slang is why the clip spread as a short meme sound, reused whenever someone claims to be preparing while clearly doing anything but the actual task at hand.

Voice clip of the Abraham Lincoln tree quote twisted into a meme, ending with spending the first four hours gooning instead of sharpening the axe.
This is a short voice clip delivering the famous preparation quote with an absurd meme twist. A speaker sets up the line about having six hours to chop down a tree, then subverts the expected lesson about sharpening the axe by saying he will spend the first four hours gooning instead. The deadpan setup makes the crude punchline land harder, turning a motivational saying into a joke about procrastination, wasted prep time, and completely unserious priorities that viewers instantly recognise from online humour.
