Or, as we would say around my house:

"Your lambda-fu is not so good."

This comes from a group of us going to see Star Wars Episode 1 in the
scene where Anakin's fate is decided by Yoda -- and it was mentioned that
Qui-Gon Jinn hadn't been successful.

One of my friends quipped at the time "His kung fu was not so good."
