I don't think I have weird hand gestures. I think most people wave their hands about when talking, especially when they're getting excited about something. The other day in the shopping centre I walked past a man who was one of those cocky middle-aged men, talking to a group of other loud cocky people, and he was waving his arms about quickly as he was speaking, and his hand accidentally hit me in the face as I was coming along. He said sorry, but I felt like saying, ''you shouldn't wave your arms about when you're in a busy shopping centre!'' But I didn't.

But anyway, I think I have weird gestures in other ways. For example, if I am looking for money in my purse, I bet I ''overdo'' it, like holding the purse right up underneath my nose and shove all my fingers in at once, trying to get the money, instead of trying to get the money in a relaxed generalized way, like everybody else. Another example is, when I go into a shop, I bet I look at the items in an awkward sort of way, standing in an awkward position, probably all stiffly. Does all this count as weird gestures?
