Origin
Bad Girls Club Season 2 premiered on December 4, 2007 on Oxygen with a group of women yet again living under the same roof, one of which was Tanisha Thomas, a notable player in this meme and a notable future member of the Bad Girls crew. At the beginning of the episode “Prank Wars Part 3: The Fat Lady Sings!”, (later referred to by fans as “Tanisha Bangs The Pans Of War”) Tanisha, angry at housemates Jennavicia, Cordelia and Darlen for keeping the other girls up the previous night, (after inviting boys over) and angrier still at their refusal to clean up their mess, grabs a set of baking pans and proceeds to stomp around the house. Banging the pans together, she yells to “GETTHEHELL UP!” and “CLEANTHEFUCKINGHOUSE!” with the occasional “I’M TIRED OF THISSHIT!” After previously waking up a crashing member on the living room couch with “LET ME HEARYOUSAYBWOMPBWOMP!”, she makes her way down the brightly-patterned hall to the open bedroom doors, leading to the iconic shot of her screaming a strangely rhythmic, sing-songy “I DIDN’T GET NO FUCKINGSLEEP‘CAUSE OF Y’ALL! YA’LL NOTGONNAGET NO SLEEP’CAUSE OF ME!” whilst banging the pans.
A remix of the song, later featured in the episode, was posted to YouTube by user ciara in 2010, and the notable moment was .gif-ed soon afterwards. Although circulated around some forums and an inside joke by fans of the show, it did not gain much traction as a meme until later.
Spread
Much later, in early 2014, the meme was revitalized by the Vine community, having discovered it much later after it’s original air date. The common format was to layer Tanisha’s pan-tantrum over different music. The earliest instance of this located was a simple camera-recorded vine by user PagonPigeon, seen here.It soon began to become a trend, with some compilation video made towards it. It is still somewhat notable as of recently, although not as widely circulated as before.
