Get the hand jobmug. A distinctive characteristic of an individual who has too much to drink. One would have raptor hands when one places their upper arms flat against their sides, only to have their forearms erected at a 90 degree angle, looking much like a raptor. Although scientists have studied raptor hands relentlessly, it is unclear why this pose is a side affect of intoxication.
"As soon as Steven began walking around the party with raptor hands, everyone knew that he had consumed the perfect amount of alcohol."

Get the Raptor Handsmug. In Adam Smith's The Wealth of Nations, he describes an "invisible hand" which is a metaphor for the idea that people acting in their own private interests will improve society as a whole. This principle of capitalism is an integral part of the modern market economy.
...every individual necessarily labours to render the annual revenue of the society as great as he can. He generally, indeed, neither intends to promote the public interest, nor knows how much he is promoting it. By preferring the support of domestic to that of foreign industry, he intends only his own security; and by directing that industry in such a manner as its produce may be of the greatest value, he intends only his own gain, and he is in this, as in many other cases, led by an invisible hand to promote an end which was no part of his intention. Nor is it always the worse for the society that it was no part of it. By pursuing his own interest he frequently promotes that of the society more effectually than when he really intends to promote it. I have never known much good done by those who affected to trade for the public good. (Smith, <U>An Inquiry into the Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations</U>)

Get the lasagna handsmug. To be seen by another while(somewhat)naked and wet, as in
when you have to answer the door in a towel or less when
just coming out of the shower, or fresh from the throws
of particularly sultry passion.
