SHAUN OF THE DEAD THROW IT MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

This iconic scene originates from the 2004 cult-classic horror-comedy 'Shaun of the Dead.' In the clip, Shaun (Simon Pegg) and his roommate Ed (Nick Frost) find themselves trapped in their backyard by two zombies and decide to use Shaun's massive vinyl collection as makeshift weapons. The humor stems from Shaun being incredibly selective about which records are 'sacrificable' and which are too culturally significant to throw, even as their lives are in danger. In the meme world, this clip is the gold standard for representing the struggle of making difficult choices or being overly picky during a crisis. It perfectly captures the emotion of prioritizing one's hobbies or niche interests over practical reality. It is frequently used to mock the internal debate of discarding old belongings or choosing between two undesirable outcomes. Example caption ideas include: 'Me deciding which of my 50 open browser tabs to close first,' 'Choosing which toxic friend to finally kick from the group chat,' or 'Me and the boys deciding which of our 100+ Steam games to uninstall to make room for a new update.'
