The South Park kid is furious with school. TikTok heard a potential beat.
Eric Cartman slams and shakes a table while yelling that he's sick of school. In the original South Park scene, he's having a full-blown tantrum. In September 2026, TikTok editors started turning that same outburst into funk-style tracks and deliberately ridiculous remixes. The character wants out of class; the internet wants another chorus.
The clip dates back to a South Park episode broadcast in 2011. By 2016, a black-and-white looping GIF was circulating as a reaction for anyone who'd had enough of school. You didn't need a dramatic story behind it. A rough morning was plenty.
Then the reaction image picked up a soundtrack. Know Your Meme documents a Sparta Remix-style edit posted on September 23, 2026, a musical version on September 24, and a funk-styled animation on September 28. Those dates come from its reporting; the original TikTok uploads could not be played directly for this article.
The joke isn't that Cartman's anger disappears. It's that the editor treats it like raw material for a party song. The shaking table starts looking suspiciously like someone keeping time. His complaint sounds like a hook.
Cartman: “I hate this school.” Internet: “Great. One more verse.”
