DODGEBALL A TRUE UNDERDOG STORY IF YOU CAN DODGE A WRENCH YOU CAN DODGE A BALL MEME MAKER

ORIGIN & LORE

The 2004 comedy classic Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story features one of cinema's most legendary training sequences. The scene stars Rip Torn as the eccentric coach Patches O'Houlihan, who is training the Average Joe's team, specifically Justin Long's character, Justin Redman. Patches famously delivers the ultimatum, 'If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball,' immediately before pegging Justin in the forehead with a piece of hardware. This clip is a cornerstone of internet culture, used to represent 'tough love' or the feeling of being completely blindsided by an unexpected challenge. It perfectly captures situations involving steep learning curves, workplace trials, or life's brutal lessons. Example caption ideas include: 'Me trying to learn a new skill on YouTube,' 'When the syllabus says no prerequisites required,' and 'Corporate training on my first day.'
