On June 12th, 2016, e-hentai.org user caglioro2016 posted a pornographic Spanish language comic book adaptation of the American animated television series The Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy. The first page of the comic, which inspired the memes, features the character Billy walking up to Mandy, spanking her on the buttocks and saying, "Buenos dias Mandy" ("Good morning Mandy"). Mandy turns, punches in the face and says, "Imbecil!" ("Moron!") The force of the punch knocks Billy onto the street, where a car runs over his hands.
