Rubber duck toys with built in squeakers have been bath and pet toys for decades, and their short squeak became a familiar stock sound in online videos. Short clips of the squeeze sound spread through meme pages and soundboards because it is easy to recognise in under a second and needs no context. Creators reuse it for pets, plush toys, babies and cartoon edits, where the familiar toy noise instantly marks a scene as playful and harmless rather than dramatic.
