When the characters are in the middle of doing some particularly dangerous or adventurous activity and something's just happened that's warranted an [[Oh Crap]] response, the [[Genre Savvy]] [[Only Sane Man]], [[Straight Man]], [[Commander Contrarian]] or [[The Lancer]] points out how ''he'' never wanted to be there in the first place. Frequently said in the form of "''I'' wanted to [do something safer]," often followed by, "... but ''no'', you had to go and [do something else]!"
Compare [[I Don't Think That's Such a Good Idea]]. Not to be confused with [[Refusal of the Call]].
