Expunged originates from Vs. Dave and Bambi, a popular Friday Night Funkin mod created by MoldyGH and released in 2021. In the mod Expunged is the true, three dimensional form of Bambi who appears in the secret Expunged songs with heavily processed vocals. Clips of his voicelines spread through YouTube gameplay, FNF soundboards and TikTok edits, where fans isolate individual lines for memes. This eighth voiceline remains popular because it captures his distorted, chaotic style in a short, reusable moment separate from the full songs.
