I wouldn't want to fight him

This is a two-panel comedic meme edited from a scene in the 2004 historical drama film *Troy*. The top panel features Brad Pitt as the Greek warrior Achilles, clad in ancient Greek battle armor, delivering the line 'That's why no one will remember your name.' as an insult to a younger character. The bottom panel shows the young character looking up at Achilles and retorting 'My name is Socrates', which subverts the original dramatic tension of the scene for humorous effect because Socrates is one of the most famous and widely studied ancient Greek philosophers in human history, rendering Achilles' insult completely ineffective.
