Mwah! Italian Symbol for Delicious Food
« on: November 01, 2013, 08:18:47 pm »
Am I right, is this an Italian thing? When someone brings their fingers to their lips, kisses them then brings the fingers away gathered together like in this photo. I tried to Google it, but that was no help.

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

Acap: I was thirsty one day and I sat down. A year later, Jack's was built around me and thirst is a recurring thing.

I've only ever seen it used in regard to food.

Louis CK does a whole spiel about that and how he doesnt get what it means in one of his more recent specials.

It's from his Beacon show from last year. I was going to post a link today at work when I saw this thread but was too busy. This is the best I could find: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WDz0bp5vOHk

Sorry, it's really shitty quality, but you should seek out the whole show anyway. Amazing.

Oh yeah, I remember it now. I've seen that show, but I suppose it warrants another viewing. Love that Louis C.K.
