world’s tiniest violin

"Playing the world’s worlds tiniest violin" as many people would call it, is when you rub your pointer finger and thumb together in a steady motion, which basically signals to anyone you do it towards that you expect money from them. Bellboys and luggage carriers often used to do this back in day in hotels when they wanted a tip but didn’t want to be so straight forwards as to ask for it directly although it has been used plenty of other places too.
Me: Hey, do you wanna see Home Alone 2 tonight?
My friend: Again? But we’ve seen it 7 times now!
Me: Yeah, 7 times over 7 years! Come on, it’s basically a tradition at this point when we get here to the cabin! The internet isn’t working right now so why not?
My Friend: Fine, but I still don’t like that bellboy Cedrick, he keeps playing the world’s tiniest violin all the time, it’s annoying!
Me: you do know that he’s not playing a violin, he’s asking for tips, it’s just a funny word we use to describe it.
My friend: Ohh...

Tanith

A Goa'uld played by Peter Wingfield in the Sci-fi series Stargate SG-1.

Tanith was a young and treacherous Goa'uld

Tanith murdered Teal'c's lover and infiltrated the Tok'ra as a spy. What Tanith did not know was that the Tok'ra were aware of his duplicity, and used him to funnel false information to the Goa'uld.

While still incubating within the Jaffa priestess Shau'nac, Tanith communicated with her and convinced her that he wished to turn against his Goa'uld heritage and join the Tok'ra. But after coming to maturity and taking a volunteer named Hebron (whose people were decimated by the Goa'uld) as his host, Tanith killed her.

He lived among the Tok'ra as a spy for Apophis, and entered the service of Anubis after escaping a Tok'ra prison cell (and a death sentence). Tanith was soft-spoken and self-controlled, and took great pleasure in cooly taunting his enemies -- especially Teal'c, who he associated with Shau'nac as a traitor to the Goa'uld. But eventually, Teal'c realized his long goal of revenge: he is presumed dead after Teal'c shot down an Al'kesh that Tanith was piloting (with a direct hit to the cockpit). It had been less than two years since he took his first host.
Tanith: I must say, Colonel, I was most intrigued by the means of your arrival.
Colonel Jack O'Neill: Yeah, it's a sweet ride. Little rusty, but it's got a lotta zip.
Tanith: How, exactly, did a Gou'ald mothership come into your possession?
Colonel Jack O'Neill: It was kind of a trade deal.
Tanith: How so?
Colonel Jack O'Neill: Cronus gave us his ship and he... got what was coming to him.

I consider you the greatest tincture in the world.

Do you want to go to a tincture and a tincture. It'll be tinctureful.

You're such a bully. It tinctures me to see you this way.

You need to stop being so tincture all the time. And I think someone tinctured over your backyard.
