    Since I know sign language, I would find a way to express my feelings.

     Is that  what you would do to display displeasure or is that what you are doing in reaction to my question OS? It isn't clear and I don't want to bite your head off for being insulting if it isn't warranted. Is it?

    I bet I could figure it out even though I know little to nothing about signing. Also I think the expression on your face would indicate it too! Thank you for your reply Lulu'sMom and Happy  Sunday! :)

    "Side eyes"?  Oh. How about rolling your eyes upward? What are side eyes Uc? That is a new one on me. Thank you for your reply and Happy Sunday to thee! :)

    Oh dear. That could get you into a whole lotta trouble. I have seen women use it. I think it's really vulgar and I have NEVER done it nor have I ever had any friends who did or relatives or romantic interests. They have always comported themselves with dignity. Now I can't say they NEVER did it. They never did it around me. That would be a real dealbreaker for me.  I don't hang out with folks who do things like that.Thank you for your reply BSurf!

    Sometimes ignoring implies agreement. Like silence. Thank you for your reply stiltcourt and Happy Sunday! :)
