Man of Kent ready

Historically a phrase used to declare confidence. However, by association with a number of ill-fated events, now a term used when one has not fully prepared for a task but is willing to proceed with said task regardless. Or when one believes one is fully prepared for a task, but it is abundantly clear to the onlooker that they are not.

As Oates stepped out of the tent, he turned back to Scott and exclaimed, "do not worry; I'm Man of Kent ready!"

Prior to the events that unfolded in the early hours of 15th April, RMS Titanic was broadly considered to be Man of Kent ready.

"Dude how's the marathon training going?"
