Literally, “to make the curious talk”—the French’s notorious explain-all reason given to account for why things are the way they are, without really explaining anything. Often used as a snappish comeback to questions posed by inquisitive children who just won’t shut up. Generally emphasized with a shrug and at least one contemptuously raised eyebrow.

George really should have worn a tie for this date. How embarrassing.

He doesn't need a tie if they're just going out for drinks. Though, it may be a factor in whether he gets laid later.
