The line comes from Gex 3: Deep Cover Gecko, the late-90s platformer starring Gex, a wisecracking gecko whose levels and taunts were packed with television and movie references. Eva Gabor, the Hungarian-American actress famous for Green Acres, was a frequent punchline for that era's comedy, and her name gave the joke its dated Hollywood flavor. Clips like this survived through retro gaming compilations and soundboard uploads, where fans collect Gex's strangest one-liners. Its continued use comes from that combination of nostalgia and pure randomness rather than any larger meme trend.
