Little reliable background is published for Zebby beyond its Diablo Selos label, so its history is mostly the way it has been passed around on soundboards and in short form video. The clip gained traction as a reusable reaction sound rather than as part of a longer identifiable recording, with users saving it by its short name and sharing it for its abrupt energy. That portability helped it persist, because a fourteen second punchline can be trimmed, looped in edits or sent as a standalone joke without explanation.
