About

Origin

Zoolander is a 2001 comedy film written, directed and starring Ben Stiller. In it he plays Derek Zoolander, an American male model brainwashed to kill the Prime Minister of Malaysia. The phrase "I feel like I'm taking crazy pills" occurs when the fashion designer 'Jacobim Mugatu', played by Will Ferrell finally expresses his frustration at the fact no one else in the fashion world has noticed Derek Zoolander's supposedly career defining runway 'looks' are nothing more than him pulling the same face over and over again.

Spread

Since the film's release, the phrase has been used to describe vexation when the common consensus appears to go against common sense or when an expected straight-forward situation is greeted by a surprise outcome.
