This clip comes from Shenmue, Sega's story-driven adventure game series, as noted in the sound's existing description. Like many short game voice lines, it was lifted by players and shared on soundboards because the delivery is funnier out of context than in the game. The phrase works as a universal excuse, so it travels well beyond Shenmue fans into general meme edits, streams and chat spam. Its staying power comes from that simplicity: two words that instantly signal someone is done for the day.
