The line comes from the Geto Boys track Damn It Feels Good to Be a Gangsta, which found a second audience when it was featured in the 1999 film Office Space during a scene about office workers blowing off steam. The contrast between everyday frustrations and the song's swagger made it easy to quote, and short clips of the hook later spread through edits, reaction videos, and meme soundboards. It remains popular because the attitude is instantly recognisable, even to viewers who have never heard the full song.
