BOILER ROOM YOU WANT DETAILS FINE MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

The 'You Want Details Fine' clip originates from the 2000 crime drama 'Boiler Room,' a film centered on the high-pressure world of pump-and-dump brokerage firms. In this intense scene, the protagonist Seth Davis, played by actor Giovanni Ribisi, is pushed to his limit during a confrontation. He snaps with the line 'You want details? Fine,' before launching into a rapid-fire, gritty explanation of his business dealings. The scene perfectly captures the moral exhaustion and defensive aggression of a character caught in a web of lies. In the meme world, this clip is the gold standard for 'over-explaining' or 'malicious compliance.' It is commonly used to represent situations where someone is asked a simple question and responds with an overwhelming, perhaps unwanted, amount of information. Whether it is explaining niche video game lore to a confused parent or detailing why a project is behind schedule to a micromanager, the clip resonates with anyone who has ever felt the need to 'info-dump' under pressure. Example captions include: 'When someone asks why I have 400 hours in a farming simulator,' 'Me explaining the entire timeline of my favorite TV show to a first date,' or 'When the boss asks for a status update on a task I haven't started.'
