Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released by Rockstar Games in 2004, opens with Carl Johnson returning to Los Santos after years away, and this line is his weary reaction as trouble finds him almost immediately.

Its staying power comes from how universally it fits: any return to a bad habit, a difficult game, or a familiar argument can be framed with the same resigned setup.
