While the original source of the Blue Lobster name is unclear, the clip lives on as part of the bassboosted prank sound wave that took over soundboards and short-form video in the late 2010s and early 2020s. Creators trade heavily distorted bass clips like this one for headphone pranks, Discord soundboard spam and meme edits where loudness itself is the joke. Its six-second length makes it easy to drop and loop, which is why it keeps circulating even as specific memes fade.
