Do you use any secret codes or secret hand gestures in public with a friend or lover so you can communicate without everyone else knowing your meaning?! :greenie:

I always wish my friends and I knew a secret language that no one else knows so we could speak to each other without anyone being the wiser. Sometimes, with the ones who know it, we will use Japanese if we want to be discrete about something.

At work, a friend and I have a code word that we say if someone is coming into our section. Basically, we say it then start talking about it. It is inconspicuous since we always talk about that topic anyways.

That secret language is really secret, rubah!

Huxley and I have a discrete signal we have when we find really badly dressed chavs. Sometimes I use that signal if someone is really attractive! That aside, we don't have any. ;_;

I have created several languages before but since I don't have friends to share them with, I just talk to myself in a sad little way.

Telepathy. And then if they don't listen to me, I just bend them to my will.

I'm obsessed with gambling and some of the signals used by teams of casino cheaters have snuck into everyday use between me and my best friend. Hand gestures and vocal signals that once meant "bet now", "don't bet" and "we need to get out of here, we've been caught" now mean "let's go outside and smoke", "your round" and "hot chick at 3 'o clock".

Why yes, it is exceedingly gay!

BJ and I use American Sign Language. We have to watch it now though 'cause his mother took a class. >:[

My friends and I make up words and phrases all the time, usually to describe something that only we will get. Basically we can have entire conversations talking about the hot chick a table away.

Me and my girlfriend write on each others palms when trying to talk privately while someone's around. It takes forever. :eep:

I don't know, that looks more like a cipher to me.

I'm too daft for codes and signals. But if somebody starts lying, I can go along with it easy enough.

well, if you'd read it, you'll see that I admitted it was a cypher!

Sadly, no, although sometimes my classmates and I will talk in Latin to each other for no reason.
And when I'm talking to my friends about certain people I say "you-know-who" and then my friends go, "OH! SO YOU MEAN LORD VOLDEMORT?" really loudly. >.>

Del Murder and I have something very specific we'll say if either one of us is in danger and being held hostage and need to warn the other person without getting ourselves killed.

I have lots of in-jokes. If that counts for anything.

If this is true, this is awesome.

Pfft, that obviously gives it away and would have your throat slit right away!

It's something really mundane, but also something we never say so that it would tip each other off, but not the crazy terrorists/zombies/nutjob exgirlfriend/etc who might be holding us hostage.

No, because it confuses me and I start to cry.....

I hate being left out though!:(

Reference missed. Try again. Actually, let Del do it this time.

Reference got, but that still doesn't change the fact that our's is still better and less obvious than saying something like that!

Are you saying that you're better than Jack Bauer?

Miriel

Well, we got the idea to plan for this from Sydney Bristow, who can kick Jack Bauer's ass. She's a CIA agent and THE CHOSEN ONE. Beat that, Bauer.

You know, I was going to make some kind of underhanded reference comparing you and Jennifer Garner, but then I got distracted by Wikipedia links.

Thanks.

I don't actually like either one, but Jennifer Garner sucks.

I actually have a code that Nicky and I can translate, but aside from that, nothing really. I suppose I have a whistle that I intentionally use to get Danielle's attention. It works with Mum, too, since I got it off her. :p
