having a small one

If someone is having a problem or issue of any size or any kind this phrase can be applied.

Supremely versatile, from minor ‘situations’ like one can’t find ones lighter, to major ‘situations’ like ones girlfriend has left one...

Often most effective when applied to others when trivialising their problems or issues!
If you’re struggling to find your lighter - “I’m having a small one!”

If you see your friend buckle over in agony after stubbing his toe - “Are you having a small one?!”

If you see someone drop a tray of drinks - “she’s having a small one!!”

If someone crashes a car - “he’s having a small one..!”
