In the small one
by Yossi on Mar 13, 2005 21:26:45
A literal translation of the very common hebrew phrase: "Ba
Ktana".
This phrase has several meanings
pending on context, but is mostly equivalent to "
No big deal".

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!
Example:
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..!”
