the stink eye



the stink eye

A facial expression of unreserved disgust, contempt, disapproval, distrust, or general ill will. Jonathan, I will not tolerate getting the stink eye from students during class. If you make that face at me again, you're going to the principal's office! Some guy across the bar has been giving me the stink eye since we came in. It must be something to do with my outfit.
