The most idiotic people on this planet - the Anglo-Americans - use this term to describe 'Arabs'. India is not in the middle-east and Hindi culture is way different from Semitic (Arab/Hebrew) cultures. Yet stupid white boy will tell you that all Hindis are Arabs, and that Arabs wear turbans, and Arab women wear dot on their forehead. Only some Hindu women wear the dot, Arabs don't do that. Also, Arab men wear Kafiyahs, not turbans.
Retarded white boy "Hey look at that Arab dot head Apu Simpson running Kwik-E-Mart"
Intelligent Hindi guy "Apu Simpson is Hindi, not Arab, you retarded white boy!"
The German version of "Dot all the I's and cross all the T's." To make sure something is done in the proper manner, without even a minor or technical error.

"It's imperative to ensure we dot the i's and cross the t's. This attention to detail changes slacking to stacking, in terms of paperwork output"
