it's funeral. See explanation Explanation: according to The Free Dictionary: it's your funeral something that you say in order to tell someone that if they suffer bad results from their actions it will be their own fault. 'I'm not coming to the meeting, I can't afford the time.' 'Okay, it's your funeral.' So liitle context, but I think this is the sense Good luck, Jane ! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 10 mins (2007-04-09 01:57:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Another option, depending on the context: "It's divorce or funeral, but I'll get rid of you, anyhow! A little creepy, isn't it ? |
