let them eat cake 

A quote attributed to Marie Antoinette, who allegedly spoke it in regard to her peasants having no bread to eat. Regardless of whether that actually happened, it is still the snobbiest way of saying "fuck them and what they want."

Marie Antoinette: "Let them eat cake."

Snooty French Guy: "They don't have cake either."

Marie Antoinette: "Did I fucking stutter?"

Let them eat cake 

A quote that has long been attributed to Marie Antoinette, although historians have generally concluded that she never said that.
Rousseau published in his work "Confessions" (1770) a story of a "great princess" who asked why the peasants were so upset; when told that they had no bread, the princess flippantly said "Qu'ils mangent de la brioche". Marie Antoinette was only fourteen at the time, unknown to the world, and was not even in France at the time.

The story of the ignorant, callous princess uttering "Let them eat cake" was around for a century before Marie Antoinette was even born. Contrary to saying such a statement, Marie Antoinette once wrote to her family: "It is quite certain that in seeing the people who treat us so well despite their own misfortune, we are more obliged than ever to work hard for their happiness. The King seems to understand this truth."

Let them eat cake 

An Idiom that history attributes to Marie Antoinette the wife of King Louis XVI of France. Although, in actuality most scholars do believe that designation is a misnomer, the phrase is catchy.

The uneducated masses abuse the term: " wow, your team did a great job, "let them eat cake"! ( buys the team members a cake.)

The educated masses are aware of the mass inflation that was ravaging the French people at the time of the French Revolution, therefore the ingredients to purchase the items needed to make a cake would have cost a fortune. The idiom let them eat cake means "Screw them"

"You can't eat that! It's the last piece of cake!"
"Sure I can, I'm a Doctor, HaHaHa. Now, Let them eat cake!"

It is a common misconception that Queen Marie Antoinette spoke the words "Let them eat cake."

Instead Little Debbie, that little girl on the box of snack cakes, uttered these words.

Don: I'm pretty sure Marie Antoinette said "let them eat cake."

Bob: Yea, well what cake did she make? Little Debbie has tons of different cakes!
