From the epic conclusion of Peter Jackson’s trilogy, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003), this scene features Aragorn (played by Viggo Mortensen) delivering a legendary rallying cry at the Black Gate of Mordor. As the forces of Men face overwhelming odds, Aragorn inspires them by acknowledging that while their courage might fail one day, "it is not this day!" In meme culture, this clip is the gold standard for high-stakes procrastination and defiance against adult responsibilities. It represents the internal battle of knowing something must be done eventually, but choosing to delay it for at least 24 more hours. It’s frequently used for dieting, cleaning, or fixing a broken sleep schedule. Example captions include: "A day may come when I close these 50 browser tabs," "A day may come when I start my laundry," or "A day may come when I stop quoting LOTR."
