About this sound

Arthur Morgan says 'wastin' my time' in Red Dead Redemption 2, a frustrated Western line creators use for delays, excuses and annoying hold-ups.

This is Arthur Morgan's irritated line 'you're wastin' my time' delivered in his gravelly Southern drawl from Red Dead Redemption 2. The clip is short and clipped, with the annoyance building in the phrasing rather than a shout, which makes it feel dismissive instead of dramatic. It lands like a cowboy telling someone to get to the point, and that mix of calm menace and tired frustration is why it works so well as a reaction. Viewers instantly read it as fed up, unimpressed and ready to walk away.

Arthur Morgan is the protagonist of Red Dead Redemption 2, released by Rockstar Games in 2018 and voiced by Roger Clark. His terse, world-weary delivery turned many in-game remarks into shareable reaction clips as the game spread on YouTube, TikTok and gaming Discords. Fans cut this line for moments of impatience, in the same tradition as the Aw Shit! Here go again clip from Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. It stays popular because the sentiment is universal and instantly understood without any context from the story.

Pro Tip for Usage

Drop it right after a long-winded excuse or loading screen stalls, letting Arthur's line answer for you. Keep the original game audio underneath low, trim any silence before 'wastin'' so the impatience hits instantly, and don't stretch it with reverb.

Use Cases

  • When a teammate takes forever to loot.
  • Reacting to a friend making endless excuses again.
  • Punctuating a boring meeting recap in edits.
  • Answering clickbait videos that delay the payoff.
