The 'A Center for Ants?' meme originates from the 2001 comedy film Zoolander. In a standout scene, the dim-witted supermodel Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller) is shown a scale model for the 'Derek Zoolander Center for Kids Who Can't Read Good.' Mistaking the tiny model for the actual finished building, he indignantly asks, 'What is this? A center for ants?' before smashing it. This meme template is used to mock objects that are unexpectedly small or to criticize solutions that feel inadequate for the scale of a problem.
