The line is associated with C'est arrivé près de chez vous, the French-language Belgian mockumentary also known in English as Man Bites Dog, a dark satire that follows a film crew documenting a serial killer. Taken out of that unsettling context, the short phrase has circulated online as a standalone reaction sound, especially among French-speaking meme communities. Its appeal is its bluntness: it turns a moment of enjoyment into an accusation, and because it is only a few seconds long, it is easy to drop into edits, streams and chat replies without losing its edge.
