History Main / IllTellYouWhenIveHadEnough

* In ''Theatre/{{Ani}}'', TheAlcoholic Obi-Wan Kenobi proves that this phrase is effective when combined with the JediMindTrick.
-->'''Bartender:''' Whoa, buddy, you just came in here, but I think you've had enough!
-->'''Obi-Wan:''' I'll tell you when I've had enough!

-->'''Mike''': [[ItsAWonderfulLife I'm giving angels their wings]]!

* One [[http://www.drunkard.com/issues/10_06/10_06_andre_giant.html issue]] in the ''Modern Drunkard Magazine'' about [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_the_Giant Andre the Giant]] says that once a bartender wanted him to leave so he will be able to close, as he didn't want to, the bartender told him that he could stay only as long as he keeps drinking (the thing of Andre being a wrestler may have something to do with it); [[NeverGetsDrunk Andre finished up at 5:00 AM]].

* On ''RockosModernLife'', in the episode "Who's For Dinner", Heffer runs away from home after discovering he's adopted. A diner waiter tells Heffer he's had enough French fries to eat, and Heffer yells in response, "I'll tell you when I've had enough, you greasy plate jockey!" Then he tries to eat the dijon mustard stain on the waiter's apron.
* In the ''HeyArnold'' episode "6th Grade Girls", Maria's boyfriend Tommy does this at the school dance with cups of punch.

* Used in ''HomeMovies'' when Jason became addicted to candy in one episode.

* [[StraightGay Agent Smecker]] of ''TheBoondockSaints'' rudely tells the bartender at a gay club to "Just pour the drink, [[BoomerangBigot you fairy fuck]]" when the bartender tries to tell him he's had enough.

* Subverted in the ''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.

* In ''{{Narbonic}}'', Dave, ''after'' [[DrowningMySorrows drowning his sorrows]], moves from the bar to the coffee shop, where he snarls at Calliban the demonic barrista "I'll tell ''you'' when I've had enough Mocha Talls, dammit!"

* In the Audio/BigFinishDoctorWho audio drama "The Revolution'', Franchise/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.

* In a skit on ''Series/ABitOfFryAndLaurie'', Stephen, as the barman, asks a worse-for-wear looking Hugh if he's sure he wants another drink as he's had six already, and is told "You just keep 'em coming!" Stephen says "righto, your funeral", and pours another [[DrunkOnMilk blackcurrant cordial]].

* Seen in ''Film/TheLostWeekend'' (although he's not Drowning His Sorrows so much as getting plastered because he's a professional drunk.)

* In the first ''SpaceQuest'' 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]].

Some bartenders want to use a customer's intoxicated state to coax more money out of them, but don't want them to get any more drunk, so they will water down the drinks or replace alcoholic components of cocktails with non-alcoholic substitutes (which is very easy with fruity cocktails or "bitch drinks", as the fruit flavors traditionally overpower the alcohol anyways), with the drunk none the wiser due to the body's inability to detect alcohol past a certain intoxication threshold.

* From the looks of things in the demo for VideoGame/ResidentEvil6, this will happen with Chris of all people.

* Invoked by WesternAnimation/{{Freakazoid}} in the epic SpitTake scene in the episode "And Fan Boy Was His Name":

* Parodied in DrawnTogether, when Captain Hero is drinking lemonade and seemingly getting drunk off of it. He gives this line when asked if he's had enough, then demands "the whole lemon." He proceeds to squeeze the entire lemon into the cup and drink the lemon juice straight. [[CrowningMomentOfFunny Needless to say, his face implodes.]]
* Used in Rocket Power after Otto costs Reggie a really cool birthday party at the skate park. She loads up on fries from the shack (With extra salt) until Tito cuts her off and makes a sarcastic remark about her driving home.

* One [[http://www.drunkard.com/issues/10_06/10_06_andre_giant.html issue]] in the Modern Drunkard Magazine about [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andr%C3%A9_the_Giant Andre the Giant]] says that once a bartender wanted him to leave so he will be able to close, as he didn't want to, the bartender told him that he could stay only as long as he keeps drinking (the thing of Andre being a wrestler may have something to do with it); [[NeverGetsDrunk Andre finished up at 5:00 AM]].

* Thanks to Nintendo censorship, an NPC in a bar in the SNES release of ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'' can be seen demanding that the reluctant bartender give him more [[FrothyMugsOfWater soda pop]], declaring "I'll tell you when I've had enough [[FrothyMugsOfWater sugar]]!"

* An NPC in a bar in ''VideoGame/ChronoTrigger'' demands that the reluctant bartender give him more [[FrothyMugsOfWater soda pop]], declaring "I'll tell you when I've had enough '''sugar!'''"

* A [[http://www.captainsnes.com/2011/05/27/678-a-bitter-fruit/ flashback]] in ''Webcomic/CaptainSNES'' had this exchange:

* In an ''AlvinAndTheChipmunks'' episode that spoofed ''Film/KingKong'', Theodore was at a bar, and when the bartender asked the question, Theodore snapped "More carrot juice!"

* Seen in ''TheLostWeekend'' (although he's not Drowning His Sorrows so much as getting plastered because he's a professional drunk.)

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. Some bartenders who want to use a customer's intoxicated state to coax more money out of them but don't want them to get any more drunk can and frequently will water down their drinks or replace alcoholic components of cocktails with non-alcoholic substitutes (which is very easy with fruity cocktails or "bitch drinks", as the fruit flavors traditionally overpower the alcohol anyways), with the drunk none the wiser due to the body's inability to detect alcohol past a certain intoxication threshold.

Almost a stock phrase of TheAlcoholic.
