Showing my inner nerd

[Rÿcher]

Star Wars fans, ever do this:

enter or exit a store or facility with automatic sliding doors and as you approach, sort of wave your hand in that slick jedi fashion as if using your will to open the doors?

 

[iguana_tonante]

I've been known to do this sometimes, but usually to amuse my friends and/or puzzle unsuspecting witnesses.

 

[Mike Farley]

I usually scream and roll into a ball muttering "Foul witchcraft" over and over.

 

[Gepard]

Yes, I have, actually. Enough that people with me have commented on it.

Of course, I didn't start until after Episode II, when we got to see the proper Jedi hand motion for door-opening. I wouldn't have wanted to get it wrong.

 

[Rÿcher]

no one wants to see my inner nerd?

 

[Mr Light]

I used to always do the hand-wave, though very subtly. Not so much in the past year or two though.

I was doing this long before anybody ever heard of Jedi Knights.

 

[Smiley]

It's more fun to do it Magneto-style, I'd imagine.

 

[davejames]

Please, that's nothing. Sometimes when I head off somewhere in my car, I'll do Picard's "Engage" move with my fingers. lol

 

[grabmygoblin]

I usually end up almost walking right into it...

 

[Klaus]

I've been known to walk into an elevator and say "Bridge" when the doors close...

Yes.

 

[Lindley]

I've lost track of the number of times I've stuck a gizmo against my brother's neck and made a hissing sound.

Car charger plugs work best for this....

 

[captcalhoun]

yes. and when pulling the back door shut at work, i make a kind of pulling gesture to 'ensure' it swings shut behind me...

I do this also, "deck 3" for the third floor ect. I always grab the railing first like in TOS.

 

[Emher]

Yeah, but I did that with subway train doors also...and it was because I'd seen X-men and Magneto is awesome. And it was more a flick then a wave.

Every.

Single.

Day.

 

[Nardpuncher]

I thought you could only do that or they wouldn't work.

 

[Nardpuncher]

yes. and when pulling the back door shut at work, i make a kind of pulling gesture to 'ensure' it swings shut behind me...

I don't get where that one's from.

 

[O'Dib]

My brother was the first person I ever saw do it. I lol'd.
