The joke itself is much older, but this specific clip spread from a 2015 viral video by creator WelvenDaGreat, who delivered the line during a phone call to a friend. The video circulated widely on Vine and Instagram, turning the phrase into a repeatable audio punchline. Clean versions with the background removed became popular for editing because the voice could be dropped over any footage. It remains in rotation alongside other reaction staples like bruh in soundboards and short meme edits.
