The El Canaca meme features Guillermo López Langarica, a man who became an overnight sensation in 2007 after a local news segment in Mexico showed his intoxicated arrest. During the interview, he famously claimed to be the son of the owner of CANACA (Central de Abastos de la República Mexicana) and shouted iconic phrases like 'Me amarraron como puerco' (They tied me up like a pig) and questioned the whereabouts of his 50,000 pesos. While Langarica tragically passed away in 2008, his defiance and hilarious logic made him one of Latin America's first major viral stars. The meme is widely used to represent situations involving unfair treatment, chaotic explanations, or simply to celebrate Mexican internet nostalgia.
