10	''[[JustForFun/DescribeTopicHere Hey, I'll TELL you when I've described too many!]]''
11
12	A character is having a lot to drink, induced [[DrowningMySorrows by sorrow]] or otherwise, and TheBartender tries to gently get this character to stop. This character will then react angrily. Often, the bartender asks "Don't you think you've had enough?", and the character snaps "I'll ''tell'' you when I've had enough!", hence the name. The bartender may listen or comply with the demand.
13
14	Nowadays, it's almost a DiscreditedTrope due to having as many parodies, usually involving someone DrunkOnMilk or drinking an [[CantHoldHisLiquor absurdly small amount]], as straight uses.
15
16	Also, even though people in RealLife are prone to do this, bartenders don't stop at asking. A bar can lose its license to serve alcohol by serving overly intoxicated customers in most jurisdictions, and the bartender may face legal repercussions, too. They will simply refuse to serve a seriously intoxicated customer any more alcohol, and if the customer makes a fuss, well, that's why bars have {{Bouncer}}s. Less scrupulous bartenders may start diluting the drinks with cheaper, non-alcoholic juice while still charging full price, since someone that drunk won't be able to tell the difference.
17
18	Almost the mantra of TheAlcoholic.

20	Contrast NoMoreForMe.

29	* In ''Literature/{{Campione}}'', a drunk Erica demands that Godou pours more wine in her glass. He obviously refuses, in no small part because she's talking to ''a mask'' in front of a mirror, facing ''completely away'' from Godou.
30	* In ''Manga/OnePiece'', Whitebeard's first scene has him claiming this. Unique in that he's neither drunk or talking to a bartender, but instead starting to feel his years and it's his nurse who's trying to curb his alcoholism for health reasons.
31	[[/folder]]
32
33	[[folder:Audio Plays]]
34	* In the ''AudioPlay/BigFinishDoctorWho'' audio drama "The Revolution'', Literature/BerniceSummerfield is asked if she's had enough (while lying on the floor) and asks if the bartender has a scientific test for inebriation. The bartender, Renk van Magnastein, suggests attempting to say his name.

46	* ''Film/{{Dangerous\|1935}}'': Played with. An already very drunk Joyce asks if she can have Don's drink at the bar. Don says "Haven't you had enough?" Joyce agrees, saying "Quite enough." Then she grabs Don's drink and downs it.
47	* Seen in ''Film/TheLostWeekend'' (although he's not Drowning His Sorrows so much as getting plastered because he's a professional drunk.)
48	* In ''Film/PetticoatPlanet'', Lily tries to tell the drunk mayor that she thinks she's had enough, only to get this response. The mayor then demands a bottle of redeye and a curly straw.

63	* Subverted in the ''Literature/CallahansCrosstimeSaloon'' series. Callahan believes his customers are adults and normally won't question how much they want to drink. He WILL, however, take their car keys as he doesn't want anyone who's had too much to drive home drunk.
64	* In the ''Franchise/StarWarsLegends'' novel "The Hutt Gambit" (Book 2 of ''Literature/TheHanSoloTrilogy''), Han starts out in a dive bar, DrowningHisSorrows over being drummed out of the Imperial Navy. Chewbacca, at the beginning of his [[IOweYouMyLife life-debt]] to Han, worries about how much the human is drinking, to which Han grumbles, "Keep your opinions to yourself, hairball.

72	* ''Series/TheWire'' In a cold open for one episode, Jimmy [=McNulty=] is getting drunk at a bar, and orders one more shot. The bartender tries to get him to slow his roll and asks if he's going to drive. [=McNulty=] swears to him he won't, only for the scene to then GilliganCut to a very drunk [=McNulty=] [[DrunkDriver barreling down the street while half-singing along to the Pogues]] and then crashing into concrete pillar ''twice''.

74
75	[[folder:Music]]
76	* Psychostick's decidedly tongue-in-cheek song "Beer Is Good" has, at the end of the second refrain, a seemingly sober by-stander suggesting, "Uh, dude, I think you've had ''enough--''" at which the singer takes a breath and declares with hostility , "NOOOOO..."

109	* In the first ''VideoGame/{{Space Quest\|I The Sarien Encounter}}'' game, after several mugs of Keronian ale the bartender refuses to pour you another one. Sticking to the trope is a way to [[HaveANiceDeath yet another stupid death]].
