First in a series.
Vietnamese jazz hands. The multipurpose hand gesture, hands open and raised and swiveled repeatedly at the wrist. Means a bunch of things, including: I don’t have it. It doesn’t work. I don’t want to. I can’t. I don’t know. It’s okay. Don’t worry about it. And more. I started out imitating it as a joke, but I’ve found myself using it for real lately. I have a feeling that it’s going to be permanently incorporated into my body language, no matter where I am. It’s just so useful, and kind of fun to do.
