In Chivalry: Deadliest Warrior and I think also in Chivalry: Medieval Warfare, the Knight has a taunt phrase where he says "Oh, He is smart like my shoe!".

Does this have any deeper connotations than what is immediately obvious? It seems fairly nonsensical. Perhaps that is the point?

Best Answer

Shoes can be 'smart' as in, Oh those shoes look smart. The wit is the irony of the beginning of the sentence "You are smart," (compliment) to finish as "like my shoe!" (insult comparing someones intelligence to an inanimate object)
