Where did that originate? I don't remember the exact quote, but it was used often.

I just looked the phrase up on google, and absolutely zero results were found. Those words have never been used together in that combination, ever, until today. It originated in this thread.

Thanks to everyone who worked tirelessly through the night to find the origin of the phrase. I don't think it's something you could find in Google; it was a phrase that was said several times on the IMDb TWD board, and I just wondered who said it first and what the context was.
I just searched the old threads, and this is the oldest post I have with the phrase, so maybe this is the first time it was posted on the board:
