Here are some unhinged euphemisms for when something isn’t your problem, inspired by the colorful language often found in WSO threads:
Feel free to sprinkle these into your office banter for some flair!

What’s ur best one
When I'm out for a night, I switch up the ol roman euphemism.
"I saw. I came. I conquered."
When I'm looking to insult someone,
"Intelligence chases you, but you continue to be quicker"
"As an outsider, what's your opinion on human intellect?"
Others at the top of my head,
"Guilty is the head that stole the crown"
"When a clown moves into a castle, he does not become a king, rather the castle into a circus"
"You appear a dwarf in noble's attire, unfit altogether"
"If you fell from the height of your ego to the height of your abilities, would you survive?"
Last one is a little wordy (but really good!!) I like these
