The Pippin Second Breakfast meme originates from the 2001 film The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. During a trek through the wilderness, the hobbit Pippin asks Aragorn about their next meal, listing various hobbit traditions like elevenses and afternoon tea. The scene perfectly captures the innocent gluttony of hobbits compared to the rugged seriousness of the Rangers. Since its release, the interaction has become a staple for internet culture, used to joke about eating habits, wanting more of a good thing, or feeling misunderstood by authority figures.
