Click here if you don't understandThe meme is a reference to the song "Bulls on Parade" by Rage Against The Machine. Go to this video, skip to 0:22, the guitar riffs will sound like "wow, wow, wocka, wow wow, wocka wocka wocka" ("wow" being a phrase Owen Wilson is associated with, and "wocka wocka" being Fozzie Bear's catchphrase).

I jam the song all the time....but I didn't get it until you explained it. Hahaha. Hilarious, thanks for clarifying.

Pretty great op post as well.

Same. Never would have occurred to me to describe the onomatopoeia that way.
