The phrase comes from Mauricio Macri during his time as Head of Government of Buenos Aires, when flooding was a recurring political issue in the city. His declaration that it would not flood again was widely quoted in Argentine media and remembered after later floods contradicted it. Shared as a short audio clip on WhatsApp, social media and meme edits, it evolved from a political statement into shorthand for ironic confidence, used far beyond its original infrastructure debate.
