The Boondocks is an adult animated series created by Aaron McGruder, adapted from his comic strip and first aired on Adult Swim in 2005. Colonel H. Stinkmeaner was introduced as a blind, elderly antagonist whose hate-fuelled rants made him an instant fan favourite despite limited screen time. His return appearances turned his entrances into running jokes, and fans began clipping his lines for soundboards and edits. This longer comeback line survived through meme pages and reaction videos, where it is now used whenever anyone makes an unwanted return.
