adjective: Used to express feelings of disapproval. Suitable times to use the phrase include when something could be considered cheap and petty. It would have to be something very minor, yet often the subject of senseless banter and complaining. In other words it's very annoying.

Pete: Bro, she left me for some weirdo that looks like a Don Knotts

Clerk: Could you give me your name, sir?
Tax filer: Oh yeah stones. I'm not supposed to eat stones.
Clerk: ...That's pretty Chinese, sir. Can I have your social security number just in case you get lost finding your way home?
