This legendary scene originates from the 1980 cult classic comedy Caddyshack. It features the boisterous real estate tycoon Al Czervik, played by the incomparable Rodney Dangerfield, as he navigates his massive yacht through a crowded marina. Czervik carelessly rams into the pristine sailboat owned by his rival, Judge Smails, causing significant damage. Instead of taking responsibility, Czervik leans over the side and indignantly shouts the iconic line, 'Hey, you scratched my anchor!' This clip has become a staple in meme culture to illustrate extreme entitlement, gaslighting, or focusing on a minor inconvenience while ignoring a major catastrophe you caused. It is the perfect reaction for situations where someone refuses to admit they are at fault and instead plays the victim. It resonates because everyone knows someone who deflects blame in the most absurd way possible. Example captions include: 'When you're the one who started the argument but find one word they said to get offended by,' or 'Me complaining about the 1% battery drop while the entire phone screen is shattered.'
