After his fan took to the social media to complain about not getting clicked, Samuel L. Jackson is giving his justification.

The fan wrote, "That moment when you meet one of your favorite actors and they are a COMPLETE D--K!!!!!!!!! What an arrogant PUNK! Right @SamuelLJackson ????" reports E! Online.

Replying to his fan's comment, the 67-year-old actor tweeted, "I refused the photo politely @FollowFITZ then you spazzed out! Learn to say Please and F--k you! Thanks for the Whitney Snitch!"

'The Avengers' star's tweet further read, "I said thanks but no @FollowFITZ, you said Aww C'mon, I'm a big fan, me, sorry, you, I watch all your movies but not anymore! Now @FollowFitz, do you see Please anywhere in that exchange? You saw it your way, I see it mine. Stop whining, it's over."

Jackson's later took to his Facebook handle, where he explained why he posted the first tweet in the first place.

"I just had a big letdown of my life. There was no altercation. There was no situation," he shared. "I just went on Twitter and I told Samuel L. Jackson, hey I couldn't believe how you treated one of your fans."

He added, "If you're going to be told 'F you' on Twitter by anybody, it's awesome if it's done by Samuel L. Jackson."

"You're right @FollowFITZ, I watched," Samuel wrote on Twitter. "There's a lot of folks that share your experience w/ me and tons of others just the opposite! Still a Fan."
