    I'm curious. If 80% of the way we communicate is body language, how can I understand a single thing one of you is saying?

    So I figure we should bring more body language into our posts.

    Instead of 'talking' to the next person, use body language.

    It can be anything you want to express to the next or previous  person without words.

    I'll start.

          Stifles a smirk and re-arranges face to a look of feigned horror.

            unconsciously enlarges pupils at the sight of the enlarged nipples displayed by ladies trying to hide their desire.. remembers 'the good old days' and then lets out a limp sigh lamenting his lost virility and aging spermatozoa

                  has stunned expression caused by the irony of the fact that he once named his aging spermatozoa "Optrex"

                    Jaw drops with shock at tenuous link of sperm and over the counter medication for blurred vision, then looks thoughtful at connection between self abuse and poor eyesight.

      Excellent! Keep up the good work!

      Oh, and I cross my legs, with hands folded in my lap as I turn my head up to the side in gesture to it all.

      Chow!

          Narrowing eyes in concentration, focusing on the repeated use of the word - 'limp'  concluding that the Greek One does protest too much.

    In a zombie-like trance, aware that all body language has come to a halt after hours online, resorts to posting old stand-by emoticons she always uses as a way to express tone:

    hmm (me, much of the time for one reason or another)
    roll (also me most of the time for one reason or another)
    mad (almost as frequently me as above ones are)           
    lol (the psycho laugh that doesn't really do it, but that's better than no laugh at all)
    and, of course, the over-used to the point of being meaningless, smile


    Picks self up from that strange, sideways slump position she seems to have settled in in an attempt to sort of stay awake while looking at the screen, (planning to get two and half hours' sleep), reaches for mouse with right hand and shuts down the ...
