A Brazilian WhatsApp voice note of a man saying 'Ei, obrigado pelo limão' with dry irony. People use it as a sarcastic thank-you reply in chats and edits.

The clip is a two-second voice note in Brazilian Portuguese: a man says 'Ei, obrigado pelo limão' — 'hey, thanks for the lemon' — in a flat, deadpan tone that lands somewhere between genuine gratitude and total sarcasm. The recording has the raw, close-mic quality of a WhatsApp audio message, with no music or background noise, just the voice and its dry delivery. What makes it funny is the absurd specificity: thanking someone for a single lemon, with complete seriousness, turns an everyday phrase into a punchline. Listeners hear politeness stretched so thin it becomes comedy, which is exactly why the line sticks in the memory.

The exact origin of this recording is unclear: it surfaced as a user-uploaded WhatsApp-style audio credited to TheRocky_OldSchool and tagged with Dlive and Limão, suggesting it was clipped from a livestream moment rather than produced as a sound effect. From there it spread the way most Brazilian meme audios do, passed from chat to chat as a ready-made ironic thank-you for small or useless gifts. Its staying power comes from that deadpan delivery, which fits any situation where politeness and disappointment collide, keeping it in rotation alongside other WhatsApp audios.

Pro Tip for Usage

Drop the clip right after a character receives something useless or underwhelming, like a single lemon instead of a prize. Keep the deadpan timing intact and let a beat of silence follow before the punchline lands; don't layer music over the voice.
