The line comes from Yu-Gi-Oh! The Abridged Series, the long-running parody dub created by LittleKuriboh that revoices characters from the Yu-Gi-Oh! anime with comedic dialogue. Tristan Taylor, one of the main supporting characters, delivers the phrase in his distinctive flat style, and the clip was circulating as a standalone reaction sound by 2014. Short abridged-series lines spread easily on soundboards and in edited videos because they are instantly recognisable to fans yet understandable out of context, and this one survived as a go-to shorthand for calling out something that sounds made up.
