This meme originates from a June 2021 tweet by political consultant Bailey Moon during the New York City primary elections. In response to a tweet urging people not to vote for candidate Zohran Mamdani, Moon quote-tweeted it with the simple, defiant caption: 'Too bad I did today.' The interaction quickly went viral for its blunt energy and has since become a popular reaction template across social media. It is widely used to mock unsolicited advice or to celebrate doing exactly what one was told not to do, capturing a specific brand of internet spite and personal agency.
