Wow! This takes the first prize! It's a gem -- the RSS has no control over the BJP! What else do you believe in -- Santa Claus, the tooth fairy,
monsters under your bed? :-)

Dear Dippy:
The correct expression that a WHITE AMERICAN ( that you claim to be) uses for what you said is "This takes the cake." Since you used the word prize in the place of cake, I challenge you to prove that you are really white. My assertion is that you are a WHITE WANNABE.
Gem is not a common word that White Americans use. I know it is a common word in South Asia. The word used in the place of "gem" by white Americans is "Beaut" as in " It is Beaut" -
beaut n. Informal.
(often used ironically) something or someone beautiful, remarkable, or amazing.
Since you are running down Santa Claus, tooth fairy and monsters, the favorites of white children, I say it again that you are NOT a WHITE AMERICAN.
Come off it; we know that you are as brown as the rest of the South Asians. How long are you going to pretend?
take the cake, Informal.
a. to surpass all others, esp. in some undesirable quality; be extraordinary or unusual: His arrogance takes the cake.
b. to win first prize.
Dippy: Give up the hatred and the abusive language and you may find that people may want to talk to you. Stop pretending to be somebody you are not. |
