akal badi yaa bhainse

when growing up, the phrase denoted in the title, was used quite frequently to prove some random point, (translation: which is bigger, your mind, or a buffalo),

how the hell one came up w/ comparing these two entities is beyond me.

at that time, everybody always said that akal (mind) is bigger...

but now, if one thinks more about it, one can argue, that technically, bhainse (buffalo) is bigger, just from the sheer size.

but a friend of mind had an even more compelling argument, bhainse also has a mind, so ofcourse bhainse is bigger :)
