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.

Today I walked in on my boss while she was using her breast pump. The door was ajar and when I pushed it open she let out a little squeak of terror. A few minutes later she came by my desk, bravely laughing it off. She said that it was bound to happen sooner or later and she was just glad that it was me and not one of the guys. Although I can see her point I can’t really say that I agree.
