The 'It's No Use' meme originates from the 2006 video game Sonic the Hedgehog, commonly known as Sonic '06. During the boss battle against Silver the Hedgehog, the character frequently shouts the phrase while using psychokinesis to paralyze the player, often leading to an inescapable and frustrating loop of attacks. This repetitive dialogue became a legendary symbol of the game's glitches and difficulty spikes. Today, the meme is used across the internet to depict situations where effort is futile, tasks are impossible to finish, or someone is being relentlessly overwhelmed by an unstoppable force.
