Travis Bickle Gets in Shape

Man, I don't feel like working out today, maybe tomorrow... Yeeaahhh mothafucker I gotta get in shape now. Too much sitting has ruined my body. From now on, it'll be 50 pushups each morning. Fifty pull-ups. There will be no more pills. There will be no more bad food, no more destroyers of my body. From now on, it'll be total organization. Every muscle must be tight.

A four-panel video meme combines a procrastinating cartoon figure with escalating clips of Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver intensely exercising and flexing in his apartment. His extreme self-improvement speech, accompanied by dramatic harmonica-led music, turns an ordinary decision to work out into an absurdly intense declaration of total bodily discipline. It is used as a reaction to sudden motivation, gym resolutions, or dramatically overcommitting to a healthier lifestyle.

June 29th. I gotta get in shape now. Too much sitting has ruined my body. Too much abuse has gone on for too long. From now on, it'll be 50 push ups each morning. 50 pull ups. There'll be no more pills. There'll be no more bad food. No more destroyers of my body. From now on, it'll be total organization. Every muscle must be tight.
