What do I mean by “Theseen”? Likes what s**t you are”

What exactly does ” like + the + noun + you are structure stands for? In Fallen Angels (1996) the main characters cursed someone by saying “I will flush you

down the pan like the shit you are”. I don’t mind the fact that sometimes we are the same.

I don’t know what she meant by that, and would like to learn what it is.

ghu ” smack like do with the one shit you are”. So it means, “like we do with sh*t, because that’s what you are”.

The first words of this sentence are “no way to fix yourself.”

Why isnt this an idiom? In English, the meaning of elements is made up by the material it is made of. How are your construction and vocabulary confused?

What, “like

the shit you are, like the shit you are”. (Think if you

speak a tongue-in-cheek). A toilet is what one usually what one flushes things down.)

So this event, the flushing may occur. How does that happen? What does a flush happen? How come we flushes shit? What is meant by ‘like’, like means the verb that is for similes and infers. The preposition is for metaphors. Someone is saying that you are like shit, or really that you are shit, and comparing the flushing of you to this shit, which you are, then they are saying that your are like shit.

Does the use of “that you are” at the end of the sentence really adds a sense of disappointment? Instead, it makes the entire sentence longer. This woman acts confidently, like a politician that she is.

Same structure, different nouns/adjectives.
