Released in 2014, Christopher Nolan's 'Interstellar' features a haunting scene where Professor Brand, played by Michael Caine, recites the Dylan Thomas poem 'Do not go gentle into that good night.' As Joseph Cooper, played by Matthew McConaughey, and the crew of the Endurance launch into the unknown, the recitation serves as a desperate plea for humanity's survival. The scene captures the heavy emotional weight of leaving a dying Earth while 'raging' against the inevitable extinction of the human race. This clip has become a staple for internet users to depict moments of extreme defiance or dramatic struggle against mundane obstacles. It represents situations where someone refuses to give up, even when the odds are hilariously stacked against them or the task is objectively trivial. Common uses include staying awake through a boring meeting or trying to revive a dead group chat with one last joke. Example captions include 'Me fighting my 1.4 GPA during finals week' or 'When the group chat has been silent for 4 hours and I drop a niche meme.'
