The 'Take, For Example, Death, War, Hunger' meme is derived from a chillingly calm monologue delivered by Stan Edgar in the Amazon Prime series 'The Boys.' In the scene, Edgar lists world-altering tragedies to illustrate a point about power and perspective, showcasing his cold, calculated nature. Online, the meme evolved into a template for ironic comparisons, where users list these massive global issues only to follow up with something relatively trivial or personal that feels just as significant to them. It is frequently used to highlight first-world problems, gaming frustrations, or niche community dramas with a sense of exaggerated gravity.
