I think (based solely on the SNL skit seakdivers is referencing) that it is a Jewish term for "overcome with emotion".
Hey, I'm right! Though one definition says it's "fake Yiddish", so Mike Meyers may have made it up.

You'd think that would be the sort of thing they'd consider before going into production, no?

From what you're telling me, it sounds like they cut all of the buttonholes here - with no way of knowing how big the buttons are, then they ship the whole load of apparel to BFE to have the buttons sewn on, then they ship it all the way back. Is that what I'm to understand from all of this?

That's how the Pakistanis in those sweat shops get back at us for daring to request buttonholes in the first place.

A organized buttonholer conspiracy, huh? Well, that's just plain sneaky.
