i want to find a picture on the internets and i can't. help?
"Im in ur base, killing all ur doodz"
referenced often around the internets, its origin has eluded me. i hear tell it comes from an image very much like this only with the added text, but image searches turn up nothing. Does this image actually exist, or is this just a fanboy/gaming/forum tagline?
if it is out there i would like it for a collection of "famous" jpgs/animated gifs/videos i am compiling. thank you hive mind.

Oh wow, guess I don't have to ask this. Thanks fidgets! If you ever publish/disseminate that collection of internet funny, hook me up! I also have a small collection of older stuff, if you are looking for any other oldies.

It was a catchphrase (eventually a bannable one, if I remember correctly) that originated as such from the Something Awful forums around a year and a half or two years back. Why it became so common around the rest of the web so much later, I'm not sure, but that's very often the way of these things.
You might find what you're looking for at the SA-related imagemacro.com (but it seems to be down at the moment, for me at least).

Two of my favorite versions, not that this really answers your question:

Oh, and I'm not going to inline it, but you can find all the versions of the animated ceiling cat I created at http://www.3e.org/dmd/scents/assets/ ...

I believe this predates the SA forums. I first saw it around 1998 in the Quake community. I believe it may have been a bragging statement made by a Capture the Flag player that took off. I don't remember whether I saw it on the Apocalypse Now screen grab or superimposed over the load screen of McKinley Base, but I'm pretty sure that is the origin.
