A British West Yorkshire slang term used to sarcastically acknowledge something someone has said, often in response to an absurd or painfully obvious situation or a dry toned reply to a dry conversation. It conveys a mix of exasperation, irony, and resigned acceptance, especially when something could have been resolved much more easily or a situation/conversation being absurd.
Origin: Rooted in Northern English sarcasm, where stating the obvious deserves an equally obvious—but dry—response. Often accompanied by an smile and raised eyebrows.

Get the Man mug.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.
