Walter White loses it over a finger

*hurts my finger* My dad: “we’re gonna have to cut it off” 6 year old me:

Walter White from Breaking Bad reacts dramatically, staggering and collapsing in the desert after a child hurts a finger and hears that it may need to be cut off. The absurd overreaction is intensified by Elton John’s mournful song “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road,” turning a minor childhood injury into a melodramatic tragedy. It is used as a reaction meme for exaggerated fear or despair over a small problem.
