Secret signals
Jump to: Newest in thread
Recently I and another fabster were like ships that passed in the night. She came into the place where I work but neither of us knew until after the time and it got me to thinking if I had known she would be there wouldn't it be handy, and fun, to have a code word or signal of some kind to indicate that I was on FAB.
So I put it to fabsters everywhere - what signal or code word would be your choice? |

"Putting a thumb up sign under your eye....as in you look fab ? ...looks like you're scratching your eye with your thumb."
Hmm not bad...but what if someone really was scratching their eye and you said "oh yeah I thought I recognised you from fabswingers!"  |

"what about some sort of Hakka type dance, that only fabsters know?
Could you video an example for us and put it on youtube so we can have a look? "

"How about you work the word spondulicks into the conversation"
Hmm so if a customer came into my shop and I thought I recognised them from FAB I could say "That will be 9 pounds and 99 spondulicks please" or "how would you like to pay? Cash or spondulicks?" |

No use to fabbers in New Zealand! 
Well in New Zealand they can do a different dance, maybe the running man?"

One would hope getting the thumb up under the eye back would be more than coincidence ?  |

Cousteau: good idea about the thumb but your concern over the other person being unlikely to copy is not taking into account mime artists who specialize in copying as if they were looking in a mirror. |

Plus you could use it as code for weather your available to play or not, if your spondulicks are playing up your available, if there a bit tired today then your not free to play |

It could be like yawning, you see someone yawn and it makes you yawn if you're a little tired, maybe you see someone scratch and you subconsciously get an under eye itch too....funny tho, I like it! |

You have a point....though maybe at this point the guy with a painted white face and black eyes would have scared me off anyway....back to drawing board. |

A couple more additions to it...just to make sure the person isn't just having some kind of fit rather than giving you the signal...and it will be ready to go! |

This came up a little while back, off the back of a thread about Caravan Swingers. They actually do have their own symbol - four interlocking rings - which many of them display in the windows of their vans.
Having said that, most of them said it never got them so much as a whiff of any fun.
If you want to see what the symbol is like, go on ebay and put in 'caravan swinger sticker'.

The next time you're in that Tescos and fancy the look of someone, do The fabdance - it's a combination of gangnam style and the truffle shuffle. |

Wait till they turn up, then send them back saying that a 'Swinger' is a local Pontypridd term for a Duck breeder, and they made a spelling mistake in the last sentence....
