A character is having a lot to drink, induced by sorrow or otherwise, and the bartender tries to gently get this character to stop. This character will then react angrily. Often the bartender asks "Don't you think you've had enough?", and the character snaps "I'll tell you when I've had enough!", hence the name. Nowadays it's almost a Discredited Trope due to having as many parodies, usually involving someone Drunk on Milk or drinking an absurdly small amount, as straight uses. Almost a stock phrase of The Alcoholic. Examples of I'll Tell You When I've Had Enough! include:

Also, even though people in Real Life are prone to do this, bartenders don't stop at asking, as they need a bar to keep its license. They will simply refuse to serve a seriously intoxicated customer any more alcohol, and if the customer puts up a fuss, that's what the Bouncer is for. Almost a stock phrase of The Alcoholic.
