"The joke's on you" nghĩa là gì?


"The joke's on you" = trò đùa vận vào cậu rồi đấy -> nghĩa là định trêu người khác hóa ra lại bị hớ, trông ngớ ngẩn, tẽn tò. 

Ví dụ
If you're not up on your Scripture, the joke's on you. The verse begins: "Anyone who has been stealing must steal no longer." Church Council President Jim Aichinger said someone stole the protective sign case displayed (trưng bày) on the church's lawn for several decades. Church members regularly change out the message to promote church events or to make a witty (hóm hỉnh) observation.

The Lakers clearly have their eyes on the Nets, as evidenced (chứng tỏ) by the blockbuster trade they pulled off on draft day to acquire triple-double machine and future Hall of Fame point guard Russell Westbrook. Sorry, Lakers, the joke’s on you.

Shortly after Jokic finidshed his news conference, Nuggets coach Michael Malone spoke to the media and did so while wearing a custom-made (hàng may đo) T-shirt with a cartoon image of Jokic surrounded by many of the criticisms he has faced over the years. On the back of the shirt was the phrase, "MVP, and the joke's on you."

Only two guys have ever scored 30 for the Nuggets in a Game 7. The Joker joins David Thompson’s 37, dropped on the Milwaukee Bucks back in 1978. Another pretty good club, that one. And if you’re still a Jokic denier (từ chối) after this one, pal, the joke’s on you.
