The line comes from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released in 2004, where protagonist Carl Johnson, known as CJ, says it near the start of the game after returning home to Los Santos. The quote became one of the game's most quoted moments and later spread widely as a meme on YouTube, TikTok and in gaming edits, used whenever a familiar problem returns. Its staying power comes from its versatility: it works for gaming fails, everyday setbacks and sequels to a bad situation, instantly framing what follows as a repeat performance.

Carl Johnson says ah shit, here we go again in GTA San Andreas, a short voice line creators use when trouble starts again in memes and reaction videos.
This is Carl Johnson's weary opening line from GTA San Andreas, delivered in a low, resigned voice as he returns to Los Santos and trouble finds him again. The clip lasts just a few seconds, with a slow, almost sighing delivery that makes the frustration feel familiar rather than angry. Hearing it instantly signals that something has gone wrong for a second time, or that a familiar mess is about to repeat itself. That dry, knowing tone is why it lands so well in memes, turning an ordinary setback into a shared joke before the action even starts.
