The catchphrase 'I Always Come Back' originated from the horror franchise Five Nights at Freddy's, specifically spoken by the main antagonist William Afton (also known as Springtrap) in the game Freddy Fazbear's Pizzeria Simulator. It highlights Afton's supernatural resilience and his tendency to reappear in sequels despite seemingly being killed off. In meme culture, the phrase is used to represent anything that refuses to go away, from bad habits and toxic relationships to persistent bugs in software or a player returning to a game they claimed to quit. The image usually features a tattered Springtrap, symbolizing grit and an ominous, inevitable return.
