How Do You Like Them Apples..........
A phrase used to draw attention to one's cleverness or superiority to the one being addressed, especially after a recent triumph. Origin: I cannot find an authoritative source, but various sites on the web have it that the original "apple" was a mortar-fired bomb used during WW I. |
