Laundry Color Separation Sacrifice Lord Farquaad Meme

This meme uses a scene from the 2001 animated film Shrek featuring villain Lord Farquaad standing between two armored knights addressing his troops. The top text sets up the relatable everyday scenario: 'Throwing all my clothes into the laundry at once', referencing the common chore of doing laundry. The bottom text is a pun on Farquaad's original line from the film, changing 'die' to its homophone 'dye': 'Some of you may dye but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make'.
