What does the Boys Go Always Bounce Back / Bouncing Baby Boy meme mean?

A Nigerian Pidgin resilience motto that reframes the English phrase "bouncing baby boy." The punchline is that boys always bounce back from setbacks — that's why people call them bouncing baby boys (and not crawling baby boys). Copycats quote the line as a short motivational meme after a loss, breakup, or bad day.
