A phrase introduced in the 1991
Sega Genesis game called "Zero Wing" that is
sometimes abbreviated as AYB or AYBABTU. The game was
poorly translated to English from a Japanese version of the
game as seen in the below dialog of the game.
Titles: In A.D. 2101, war was beginning.
Captain: What happen?
Mechanic: Someone set up us the bomb.
Operator: We get signal!
Captain: What!
Operator: Main screen turn on!
Captain: It's you!!
Cats: How are you gentlemen!! All your base are belong to us. You are on the way to destruction.
Captain: What you say!!
Cats: You have no chance to survive make your time. Ha ha ha ha....
Operator: Captain!!
Captain: Take off every 'ZIG'!! You know what you doing. Move 'ZIG." For great justice.
Later, gamers and other computer geeks
started using this saying as a joke and to demonstrate their
true geekdom. Today, this phrase is found on thousands of
websites, movies, text messages, and other locations.
