Using a catch phrase as a trope title has not worked out well before: So Yeah got added to a zillion different tropes without adding value — I'd suggest zapping this one.
EDIT: As side note the current defintion seems off the mark.
A more common meaning is as a sarcastic response — a Take That!: a way to say that a joke is stupid and the joke-cracker is stupid.

I indexed it under Stock Phrases as it is definitely one of those. We've got plenty of others (just see the index), so simply being a commonly used phrase is not a death sentence.
"It's Occam's Shuriken! If the answer is elusive, never rule out ninjas!"Sure, I'm not against documenting stock phrases, I'm just saying there is a small minority of stock phrases that are the flavour of the month and and lend themselves to getting tacked on to things where it the troper making a personal response rather than referring to a trope.

How is this a stock phrase? I've never heard anyone say it anywhere.
Accidental mistakes are forgivable, intentional ones are not.It's a stock phrase on the internet as used by real people i.e. it's a meme. I've never seen a fictional use.
^I think it was said at one point in Yu Gi Oh The Abridged Series, but then that show is a walking meme repository...
Send it back to YKTTW.
Fight smart, not fair.If it's a meme, then put it on the Memetic Mutation page and cut this one.
Accidental mistakes are forgivable, intentional ones are not.Looks like it has been cut.
This discussion is probably done.
This space for rent. Cost: your soul.
This one got created without any love or attention to detail. Not even an index. But rather than cutlist it immediately, I figure it might attract a bit of Wiki Magic. Go forth.
