The 'Why Are You Booing Me? I'm Right' meme stems from a Season 2 episode of The Eric Andre Show, featuring comedian Hannibal Buress. During a bizarre stand-up segment where his jokes are met with a chorus of boos from the studio audience, Buress stops his set to point out the validity of his statements with this now-famous retort. The clip gained massive traction on social media around 2017 as a reaction image for anyone delivering a 'hard pill to swallow' or an unpopular truth. It perfectly captures the frustration and smugness of being correct while the rest of the world refuses to listen.
