What is the I Should Not Have Said That meme?

I Should Not Have Said That is a close-up of Hagrid from the Harry Potter films, played by Robbie Coltrane, his face framed by a huge tangle of hair and beard, eyes wide and lips pursed in the frozen expression of someone who has just realized what came out of his mouth. In the films Hagrid is famously bad at keeping secrets and keeps blurting out exactly what he was told not to share. As a meme it captures that instant of regret after oversharing, spoiling a surprise or saying the quiet part out loud.

Origin: The line comes from the Harry Potter film series, where Hagrid repeatedly lets slip information to Harry, Ron and Hermione in the first film (2001) and then mutters that he shouldn't have said it.

Also known as: Hagrid Regret, Hagrid I Should Not Have Said That, Harry Potter Hagrid.

How to use the I Should Not Have Said That meme

The top box is optional and often left empty. When used, it holds what you just blurted out or the situation that led to it. The bottom box keeps the catchphrase: "I should not have said that".

It works for spoilers, accidental confessions, telling your boss what you really think, mentioning a surprise party, or saying a game's patch notes out loud before release. The frozen face makes the most sense when the slip has obvious consequences the reader can imagine.
