View Full Version : Eh! DJM77 06-29-2021, 08:36 PM Anyone who's seen much of this show will know what I'm talking about. Danny or Rusty would hold up their hand, flip it backwards and shout, "Eh!" Is there any specific meaning to that hand gesture that they were frequently doing or is it just a non-specific gesture of dismissal? stevea 07-05-2021, 10:53 AM Yeah, I remember that gesture, but don't know the significance. Another thing he did (maybe copied from somebody else) was the coffee spitting bit when he gets surprise news. Howard 07-30-2021, 05:27 PM From an interview years ago with Danny, he said it meant FU! Howard 07-30-2021, 05:32 PM That's called a SPIT-TAKE! DJM77 07-31-2021, 12:43 PM From an interview years ago with Danny, he said it meant FU! Thanks. I'm not surprised that's what it means. I've been watching The Mothers-In-Law lately and I've noticed that it was done on there sometimes too. Howard 07-31-2021, 01:49 PM Cool; haven't seen THAT show in many years but loved it; it should have run more than 2 seasons!

Def meant Ef Hue I'd bet it was common in the the NY & Boston circles from the 1930's a upward +-, me being from Boston Italian |
