Sans is a supporting character in Undertale, the role playing game released by Toby Fox in 2015, known for his relaxed attitude, skeleton grin and constant puns. His jokes are a running gag throughout the game, often told to the player and to his brother Papyrus, who pretends to hate them. Clips of his dialogue voice and joke timing spread through fan edits, remixes and soundboards after the game became a cult hit, and the short format made this moment easy to reuse as a reaction to any corny line online.
