TV Time
This image is a universal sign that most everyone understands. If someone points at their watch or even their wrist without a watch on people understand that it means "time". This could mean "its time to go" or "what time is it?"

This image is a nonverbal threat by a man doing a finger motion across his throat. This motion is a sign that means "you are dead" or "you are in trouble". It is a classic motion that has been signified for many years.
