The exact source of this thank you for playing my game line is not documented, and the clip circulates mainly as a short soundboard recording shared by gamers and editors. Its wording copies the classic wording shown on end screens in arcade and indie games, where developers thanked players after the credits. Online it spread as a reusable outro joke, especially in horror, fan game and Let's Play edits, because the polite delivery contrasts with messy gameplay and makes even an abrupt ending feel like a proper finish.
