Sure, Jan. 

A sentence used to sarcastically dismiss another person's obviously fictitious story.

It originated in the 1995 movie "The Brady Bunch", a parody take on the TV series of the same name.

In one of the earlier scenes of the movie, Jan, one of the Brady children, wants to impress her family and makes up an obviously completely made-up story about having started dating a boy named George Glass at her school, every time someone in her family inquires about this boy, she keeps piling on the lies up until her older sister Marcia ends the conversation with a curt "Sure, Jan." faking agreement but clearly being so done with Jan's crap.
Donald Trump:
"The aid my administration brought to Puerto Rico was a complete success, we did better than any other administration before!"

Everybody else:
"Sure, Jan."

The grindset is a contemporary ideology of self-exploitation disguised as strength, deeply tied to the aesthetics of the “sigma male” and to new digital forms of patriarchy. It promotes the idea that human worth depends on productivity, economic success, absolute emotional control, and the ability to work endlessly, turning vulnerability, rest, community, and tenderness into signs of weakness. Beneath its rhetoric of discipline and power often lies a profound inability to relate healthily to pain, fragility, and human interdependence.
“That’s the grindset, brother. While weak men sleep and complain, sigma males stay disciplined, work in silence, suppress emotions, and build power while everyone else wastes time chasing comfort.”
