CADDYSHACK YOULL GET NOTHING AND LIKE IT MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

The 'You'll Get Nothing and Like It' meme originates from the 1980 cult classic comedy film 'Caddyshack.' In this specific scene, the wealthy and high-strung Judge Elihu Smails (played by Ted Knight) is dining with his entitled grandson, Spaulding (played by John F. Barmon Jr.). Spaulding is complaining about his food and wanting a hamburger and a milkshake instead of what he was given. The Judge finally loses his patience, leans in close, and aggressively shouts, 'You'll get nothing and like it!' This clip has become a staple in the reaction meme lexicon for its perfect depiction of authoritative dismissal and forced compliance. It is commonly used to represent scenarios involving strict parenting, corporate stinginess, or video game developers responding to player complaints about lack of features. The humor stems from the intensity of the delivery versus the trivial nature of the complaint. Example caption ideas include: 'Me to my dog when he asks for a fourth treat,' 'Management when the staff asks for a cost-of-living raise,' and 'When you ask for a discount on a 99-cent app.'
