Comment: "Multumesc. Ca in majoritatea cazurilor problema mea a fost cu lb. romana :) A-si da ochii peste cap este expresia corecta pe care nu mi-o aminteam, asadar tin sa multmesc ambilor respondenti, ambele solutii fiind absolut corecte.
Cu multumiri si cele mai calde urari."

dandu-mi ochii peste cap cu dispret
in functie de context si registru, ar mai putea fi si "dandu-mi ochii peste cap in semn de respingere/negare"...
Peer comment(s):

: eu as zice "cu dispret", mi se pare ca implica dezaprobare, respingere etc. si textul e mai fluid.
