English Tip Daily By Kru P' M
ถ้าอยากบอกให้ใครเงียบๆ และเบื่อคำว่า"Shut up!"แล้ว ใช้คำนี้ได้เลยครับ "Talk to the hand" แปลว่า "คุยกับมือแทนนะ"

http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=talk_to_the_hand and wikipedia give more setails on the use of this 'rude' slang (with a hand gesture). Its use has been declining since 1900s.
I personally would not consider using it in any situation. A polite
"sorry, I don't have time for this." or stronger "I won't hear/'listen'
to this.", or rudely "that's bull..." would produce the same effect.

Thanks Kru P' M ad Khun SR for letting me learn new interesting "E for Communication", this morning.
