New Kids started in 2007 as a sketch series on Comedy Central Netherlands, following five antisocial gabber friends from the fictional village of Maaskantje, and their popularity led to the feature film New Kids Turbo in 2010. Rikkert is one of the five, and the shouted line 'Oprotten, Rikkert' captures the show's trademark crude, confrontational humor. Online the clip circulates with tags like #ontslagen, Dutch for 'fired', which is why creators reach for it whenever a video needs a loud, comic dismissal.
About this sound
The angry 'Oprotten, Rikkert' shout from the Dutch comedy film New Kids Turbo, used in memes to dismiss someone or joke about getting fired.
The clip is a raw, aggressive Dutch shout: a rough voice barks 'Oprotten, Rikkert', which translates to 'Get lost, Rikkert' or 'Piss off, Rikkert', and it lasts just under four seconds. It comes from New Kids Turbo, the 2010 film spun off from the Dutch Comedy Central sketch series about five antisocial gabbers from the village of Maaskantje, and Rikkert is one of that gang. The delivery is pure New Kids: loud, crude and confrontational, with no warmth at all. Dropped into an edit, it lands like a verbal door slam, turning any exit, sacking or failed attempt into a punchline of instant, exaggerated rejection.
