The line comes from Seinfeld, where Frank Costanza, played by Jerry Stiller, adopts Serenity Now as a calming mantra to keep his temper and blood pressure under control. The joke is that he shouts it instead of saying it calmly, and the phrase became one of the show's most quoted outbursts after the episode aired in 1997. Clips of the yell later spread through Seinfeld compilations, reaction videos and meme edits, where it is still used as shorthand for forced calm and sudden frustration.

Frank Costanza shouting Serenity Now from Seinfeld, a loud stressed yell used in memes and edits for moments of fake calm before completely losing it.
This is Frank Costanza at full volume, bellowing the phrase Serenity Now as if shouting alone could make him calm. His voice is strained, urgent and slightly unhinged, rising sharply on the second word before cutting off abruptly, which makes the attempt at relaxation sound completely ridiculous. The humour comes from that contradiction: a man trying to soothe himself by yelling, louder and louder, until the mantra collapses into pure frustration. Played over a stressful clip, it instantly signals that someone has reached their limit and is pretending otherwise, turning an ordinary moment of annoyance into a punchline.
