The Idiomatic Phrase You Thought You'd Thought Of But We Got There First

A legacy of the nineteenth century, willful antidisestablishmentarianism occurs nowadays by self-important, stovepipe hat wearing pedants who still actively campaign against proposals to remove the Church's status as the state church of England, even though no-one's really bothered because nobody actually goes to church anymore as they are either at a car boot sale, or a mixed-use retail/leisure park buying cheap-jack scandinavian furniture that doesn't really go with anything else they bought previously.
