The line comes from the start of Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released in 2004, where protagonist Carl Johnson, known as CJ, returns home to Los Santos. Often shared online as Aw Shit Here We Go Again, the moment became a reaction meme in the late 2010s on YouTube and social media. Players and creators reused the clip whenever a game, trend, or problem returned, and its tired tone helped it stay popular far beyond GTA fans as a shorthand for unwanted repetition.
