"Get a good look Costanza?"Much better than Bob Cleavage.

I give the board the perfect follow-up opportunity and it takes four whole hours for someone to pull the trigger? SMH.What about Beaver Cleavage?
What about Beaver Cleavage?
You mean this one, don’t you?
Some used to call it mano a borsa (“bag-shaped hand”), some didn’t. It does not matter anymore.
What matters is its meaning, on the other hand: that little handshape with the tips of the fingers together may be loosely translated in Italian as…
(drum roll, please)
…“What/Where/How/Why/When the f**k”.
Yes, indeed.
Just try to add that little hand motion to any Italian question: it turns it into something with an unmistakable flavour.
Che stai dicendo? → “What are you saying?” Add that aforementioned handshape and…Voilà! “What the f**k are you saying?”
Cosa vuoi? → “What do you want?” becomes “What the f**k do you want?” in zero time.
Dove andiamo? → “Where are we going?” turns into “Where the f** are we going?”
The beauty of a mano a borsa. It takes a bit of tongue in cheek to get its usefulness.
