Contexto cultural
The concept of 'Abe-roo' (water of the face) is vital. This idiom describes the ultimate loss of Abe-roo. University degrees are highly prestigious in Iran. Using 'thesis' as a metaphor for a life's summary shows how much weight academic terms carry in society. Iranian newspapers often use dramatic, literary idioms in headlines to grab attention, especially in political sections. In the age of 'cancel culture', young Iranians use this phrase ironically when someone gets 'exposed' (low-shodan) online.

Too Dramatic?
Don't use this for small things like a bad grade. It's for 'Game Over' moments.
