The line comes from the sketch comedy series I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson. It appears in a restaurant scene where Robinson’s character becomes fixated on another diner’s burger and demands it with “Gimme dat.” The sketch was released as part of the show’s second season in 2021. Short clips of the demand spread through reaction videos, GIFs, and social posts because the blunt delivery neatly matches moments involving food envy, impulsive grabbing, or exaggerated selfishness.
