How it's used

This idiom is frequently used in a hyperbolic or sarcastic sense to describe someone who is overly confident or arrogant.

It is common to hear it used when someone is boasting about their skills in sports or video games.

Examples

You have trained so hard, are you trying to be invincible?

Common phrases

Common mistake
