About
Clearly You've Never Made an Omelette, alternatively spelled as Clearly You've Never Made an Omelet, refers to a line of dialogue spoken by Ultron in the 2015 Marvel film Avengers: Age of Ultron in response to Thor saying, "nobody has to break anything." The line became the subject of memes, particularly ironic demotivational posters, in early 2021, associated with an image of Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark with a smug smile on his face.
Origin
On April 13th, 2015, the Marvel film Avengers: Age of Ultron premiered in North American theatres. At one point in the film, the Avengers encounter Ultron. Before fighting, Thor says, "Nobody has to break anything," to which Ultron responds, "Clearly you've never made an omelette," followed by Iron Man saying, "he beat me by one second" (shown below).
On June 1st, 2020, Instagram[9] user eggsylul posted a demotivational poster featuring a screenshot of Robert Downey Jr.'s face as Tony Stark in the Iron Man suit, smiling with a smug look of superiority, and the text, "Clearly you've never made an omelette," directly referencing the scene in Age of Ultron (shown below). The post gained over 520 likes in three years.
