This meme stems from a scene in the 2022 film 'The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent,' where Nicolas Cage and Pedro Pascal share a drive in a convertible. The sequence gained massive viral traction on TikTok and Instagram in 2023, almost always accompanied by the upbeat track 'Make Your Own Kind of Music' by Cass Elliot. The humor lies in the jarring juxtaposition of Pedro Pascal’s infectious, carefree grin against Nicolas Cage’s expression of existential dread or utter bewilderment. It has become the go-to template for depicting scenarios where one person is blissfully ignoring a problem that another person is deeply stressed about.
