The clip comes from asdfmovie4, part of the asdfmovie animated sketch series created by TomSka and posted on YouTube in the early 2010s. The series is built from rapid, unrelated sketches with simple stick figure characters, deadpan voices and abrupt endings, which made individual lines easy to lift as reactions. This line spread through reposts, edits and soundboards because its meaning needs no context from the original sketch. It remains popular for calling out bad decisions, long after the episode first appeared online among fans.
