The phrase school is kut comes from Dutch slang, where kut is used as a strong, vulgar way to say something is rubbish or miserable. Online the English Dutch mix made it easy to share outside the Netherlands, because the meaning is clear from context even without translation. The clip circulated on user generated soundboards as a short reaction and music meme for students, and it remains popular for back to school posts, exam season jokes and edits that exaggerate how draining a normal school day can feel.
