Summary

Today's expression is REALLY common in Daily English--especially during competitions and arguments! I'm guessing that you might not have many chances to USE the expression, but if you pay attention, you are go to SEE and HEAR the expression a lot! You'll learn TWO VERSIONS. The first version is the "spoken" version which is most common; the second is the internet version which is also spoken (but not as much as the first version).
