Watch your body language people

There's another option. Turn your head sideways and raise the mug up to the corresponding side with that arm like/while you're flexing your guns with noticeable tension. Then chug the damn thing with large measured gulps before throwing it haphazardly onto the floor, into a nearby corner, possibly where others are sitting/working, startling them.

Now lick and smack your lips as loud as you possibly can, broadcasting how satisfied you are with life and the fact that you just owned that coffee and made it your b*; watch as the timid ones run from the room and the remainder who stay recognize their new leader

I was going to post a picture of a statue of Bacchus showing just this pose, but it has marble goolies, and I'm afraid that some of our blue-tinged friends might not see the scientific merit of the picture.

Let's just say I think the Greek/Roman gods read the collected works of Allan Pease before posing for the ancients.
 
A lot of these signs are being interpreted out of a very insecure standpoint. For example the picking lint of your clothes should be interpreted as being neat above all. I personally can keep my focus on a conversation and also spare a sec or two for picking lint. And even when you are uncomfortable the person that you are talking with should not directly take it personal, people are not always in a total comfort zone. Deal with it.
Narrowing your eyes in a conversation is more sign of skepticism than anger, imo.

The real question is what does it mean when you brush the lint off someone else's clothes whilst talking with them. I think that means you want to have sex with them but are insecure about your low pressure shower head

Lol, I was thinking about that. Girls do that. I like it. I don't mind them invading my personal space. Let's keep invading space till there is nothing left. :icon_chee
 
I actually do some of those. And most of the reason are bs. I'm not going to stop 30 years of habit because someone thinks I'm being rude.
 
I lol'd at many of those. Some seem true.

I actually see relaxed shoulders as a sign of confidence. People that look all tensed up and tight seem nervous imo.

And I hold shit in front of me all the time. And I'm sure as hell not hiding behind it considering whatever it is--it's probably small enough to fit in my hand.
 
One time my boss said "good job" and smiled
I've seen his teeth and i took it as aggression sign, so i ripped his throat off with a bite and then i pissed at the four corner of the room to declare it was my territory

That's really rude of you, Link. :(
 
As someone who talk to different people everyday for a living, I am quite very aware of most of them.
 
Serious note

If you are a confident relaxed person all these things are BS, your body automatically express that

If are not and you try to force yourself to show signs usually it look fake and more obvious that the "weakness" itself

Random examples the skinny guy that put all his strenght in a handshake, the woman at work that have a stick up in her ass and talk like an army official, the short boss with obsessive eye contact that say you things like if he's alpha maling you, the bald-fat-old boss that can't stop talking about how he get tons of vagina and so on
 
Some of these could be true in some cases but most of it is bullshit.I pick my nose everywhere and at all times - that doesn't mean that I suspect you to be a liar or something.

True.I avoid shaking hands hard and this one time when I met this chick she told me that I should shake a girls' hand harder,otherwise she might take me for a wimp.I responded with "Do I look like I care what someone thinks of me ? I am what I am ".

If you are confident it's easy to spot regardless of your body language.
 
#19 Standing with Your Hands Crossed Over Your Genitals

well, how else am i supposed to hide my awkward/inappropriate erection?????
 
I don't hold books in front of me because I'm not a high school girl in a movie.

I narrow my eyes though because one eye is bigger than the other, that's not fair. I had to wipe my hands on my jeans twice on Tuesday during an English exam because my pen was slippery it was so bad.

Cross arms, slouch, looks to the left, while checking the time.

You said anything? I'm sorry, I had my back turned to the screen.
 
So I shouldn't rub my chin or hold my hands over my genitals anymore. Maybe I should rub my genitals and hold my hand over my chin from now on instead.
 
As someone with ADD and some anxiety issues related to having ADD some of these seem unavoidable unless I'm consciously aware. It's sucks being misinterpreted a lot.
