This sound is associated with Uncle Roger, the comedy persona created by comedian Nigel Ng. The character became widely popular on YouTube in 2020 through reaction videos, especially food commentary delivered in a sharp, mocking style. Short lines such as "so weak" spread beyond full videos into clips, remixes and social posts because they are easy to drop into awkward or disappointing moments. It remains popular as a reaction sound thanks to its clear delivery, strong meme recognition and quick setup-to-payoff timing.
