About

"I Came Here To Laugh At You" is a memorable quote from the Japanese anime television series Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam typically used as a mocking insult in reaction image of smugly smiling characters in sunglasses.

Origin

In the anime series Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, which aired from 1985 to 1986, the character Amuro Ray asks Char Aznable[8] to explain why he has arrived, to which he responds that he came to “laugh at” him (shown below).



Amuro Ray: "Why are you here?"
Char Aznable: "I came to laugh at you! Is that what you were expecting me to say?"

On November 22nd, 2010, a captured image of Aznable with the subtitle "I came here to laugh at you" was posted to the /tg/ (Traditional Games) board on 4chan (shown below).[1]
