The clip comes from the 2005 French comedy Brice de Nice, in which Jean Dujardin plays Brice Agostini, a boastful would-be surfer living in Nice. The line “Tiens, j’me fais chier” is a colloquial, vulgar way of saying that he is bored. Short excerpts from the film have circulated as French reaction clips, and this moment remains useful because its meaning is immediate even without the surrounding scene. Its brief runtime also makes it easy to place after a pause or anticlimax.
