So, there is this "Italian gesture"--well, there are a lot of Italian gestures, but I'm only referring to the F*ck Off chin gesture. I don't use it a lot, which is probably why I've lived so long, but Hat has a discussion of it in terms of language, which is fascinating. If you're clueless, here's a sample chin flick for ya'll (sort of the end of the flick, actually):
My preference for keeping my kneecaps relatively whole is, when badly annoyed by life in general, to simply grunt, "Oh, Italian Gestures in your direction." Kind of a combination of Italy and Monty Python.
All this is somehow fitting for a Friday, eh?
