It means nothing, people have all all kinds of things they do when communicating face to face. I have a friend who likes to rub his ear lobe when talking to people in close proximity.  Just remember it has nothing to do with you.

I've learned to choose my battles wisely.  Sometimes biting my tongue and walking away is the better choice even if I feel awful afterward.  It is harder to talk with my feet in my mouth than it is to walk with my feet on the ground.  And believe me....both my mouth and my feet are too big for their own good.

He knows he's putting the shoe on the opposite foot. People love to look at the others faults when they get into trouble to get the attention off of what they did. Just look him dead in the eye and say......this is about you now...stay focused!

It's believed that this saying was created by an English humorist in the 1800s. Most people have difficulty saying anything with their tongue in their cheek. But some people actually do stick their tongue against the inside of their cheek after saying a joke to show that they're only kidding.

Well..if you're trying to clinically assess someone for this condition, you might need a bit more information.  It could be a "Freudian slip", a form of "Apraxia" or what was stated earlier "foot in mouth."

It is not what goes into the mouth that defile a man its what comes out of the mouth ,this is what defiles a man not what he eats or drinks. Hope that helps.

It might be the lack of thought prior to engaging ones mouth followed by the reflection of what was just actually said.  THINK FIRST!!!

it means that somebody rams there head hard and fast into your face. Normally they will try to ensure that there forhead conects with the bridge of your nose - breaking it nicely, before the move on to kicking the shite out of you

He used it on me a few times, it's kinda sad in a silly way.\n\nhe means something like Big Toe Bug Squash or something. He wants to tell you that God should use his Big Toe and step on you till you died.\n\nthat's mainworry's sense of humor. i call it threatening people with murder. but that's just my weird view on things, because, as we all know, Mainworry is the only one who holds the Full Truth.

I suspect this is a poetic expression that refers to the attitude of the person when he/she made the smile.  Think of the person wanting to say "Take that!" while smiling.  This is a way of expressing revenge, more or less.

I'm not 100% certain, but every time I hear it I want to punch the person who said it in the face and/or run them over with my car (or a larger car).  \n\nIt's usual colloquial usage is when someone does something very rude, cruel, or generally nasty and wants to follow it up with an insincere apology thus cementing their total lack of tact.\n\nHypothetical situation:\nTwelve year old Jenny hits a volleyball lightly over the net at a family party.  Uncle Chad, who's had a few Budweisers already, leaps up and spikes the ball as hard as possible into her face.\n"My bad!"
