The line comes from Postal, the controversial action game series centred on the Postal Dude, a disgruntled everyman whose deadpan narration became a signature of the games. Fans clipped his most quotable lines for soundboards, where this one stood out for its bleak, self-aware humour. It later spread through gameplay videos, edits and meme pages that used it to mock attachment to a single weapon or a feeling of being misunderstood. Its short length and dry delivery keep it easy to drop into short-form videos, which is why it still circulates long after the games first appeared.
