In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Umme wia a Katz” is a rare card of the German Memes pack, number 282 of the collection, and the 39th best-known meme of its 300 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Umme wia a Katz” meme mean?
The phrase likens something ending or slipping away to a cat dashing off, sudden and silent. It fits a weekend that was far too short, a pizza gobbled in two minutes or a coworker who vanishes before the meeting. The drawling dialect and its long vowels clash with the idea of speed, and that mismatch is what amuses. It has become a closing line to throw in when everything is already over.
Where does the “Umme wia a Katz” meme come from?
The meme dates from 2009. On YouTube, a video is introduced as “Das Original: Umme wia a Katz mit Walter Lang”, pointing to the base recording of the line. Other titles show the phrase was remixed, for instance Robin Gadermaier’s “Wia a katz Remix” or a track by Sebi Elepeg. The pages checked do not detail the original scene, but they do confirm Walter Lang’s name, the existence of a reference clip and the wave of remixes that followed.
