About

I Believe You Have My Stapler is a catchphrase originally uttered by the character Milton in the movie Office Space. It is often featured in YTMNDs, image macros, and remix videos.

Origin

Office Space was a 1999 comedy by Beavis and Butthead creator Mike Judge, about a group of employees who hate their jobs, and decide to rebel against their greedy boss.

Milton Waddams (played by actor Stephen Root) is an eccentric character that has an emotional attachment to his stapler.

The character Milton originally came from a short cartoon from the early 90s MTV show Liquid Television.

The "Excuse-me, I believe you have my stapler ?" catchphrase was featured in a YTMND page in 2004.
According to the YTMND wiki, it became one of the first big hits on the site.

Variations and spread

Following the YTMND popularity, others YTMND fads were made, starring Milton's incredibly funny face and his famous lines:
