Eric Cartman is one of the four main schoolboys in South Park, the long-running animated sitcom created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone that premiered on Comedy Central in 1997, with Parker voicing Cartman. His self-satisfied laugh became one of the character's most recognisable trademarks, clipped and shared from episodes across YouTube, soundboards and social media as a shorthand for smug mockery. It endures because the sound needs no context: even viewers who have never watched the show recognise the tone instantly and use it to puncture pomposity, celebrate a rival's slip-up or add a villainous edge to a joke.

Eric Cartman's distinctive laugh from South Park, lasting about eight seconds. Creators use it to mock a bad take, react to a fail, or punctuate a joke.
This is Eric Cartman's laugh from South Park, performed in the character's high, nasal voice with a smug, wheezing rhythm that builds and breaks into short, sharp bursts. It does not sound like a warm or generous laugh; it sounds gleeful, mean-spirited and a little unhinged, as if Cartman has just spotted someone else's embarrassment and is enjoying it far too much. Hearing it instantly frames whatever came before as foolish or deserving ridicule, turning a neutral moment into a punchline and making the listener feel like the butt of Cartman's joke.
