Used ironically of things which are in fact almost entirely unlike X, except
|
|
|
|
|
for one feature which the speaker clearly regards as insignificant. That is
|
|
|
|
|
not entirely unlike cool...at least it's small. Comes directly from the
|
|
|
|
|
Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy scene in which the food synthesizer on the
|
|
|
|
|
starship Heart of Gold dispenses something almost, but not quite, entirely
|
|
|
|
|
unlike tea.
