Origins

On December 08, 2004 SA forums goon Jer posted a thread entitled You can't fight the man, but I'll damn well try! which outlined his battles with local law enforcement over a ridiculous parking ticket. He protested the ticket once and was declined, but noticed that on the letter denying his protest outlined the process for a second appeal and quickly went to work writing a rambling and insane letter explaining his position, complete with diagrams and illustrations. The second page consisted of nothing but the aforementioned image and caption.

—SA Forums goon Jer, The court date was indefinitely postponed.

Jer changed his custom title from Happycat and the catchphrase, citing overuse for the removal. This often crops up on other websites that are not Something Awful, where it is considered "horribly overused and annoying."
