females. They may be smaller but they are way scarier.
So true
Small females can be fucking frightening even if they aren't elephants.

That was my point, females: smaller and scarier

My kids do this thing where they join their hands one on top of the other and then wiggle the outside fingers and thumbs. They call it the Awkward Turtle.
I’m doing that to you now.

Yes. I'm a little uncomfortable about that.

@bones Didn't feel a thing.
Nothing beats experience.
Maybe I have had an awkward turtle before but they didn't call it that. Really can't comment.

Well at least he didn't mention his shy bear.

This is just typical of you two. You take an innocent childish gesture designed to silently indicate an awkward situation and insert (snigger) your own deviant take on things.
Snowy had slightly embarrassed himself with an obvious comment (though I doubt he realises this) and I explained about the awkward turtle.
To explain further, the first time I saw this in use was when my mother-in-law had just died and her body was lying in the next room and we were all sitting around gloomily waiting for the body snatchers when in comes my extremely fat brother-in-law. There were few chairs available so he sat in a dining chair with arms. When the bell rang for the undertaker he got up to answer the door but unfortunately so did the chair as his arse was wedged inbetween the arms and he couldn't shake it off. No-one could really say anything or laugh out loud so my two daughters made the awkward turtle gesture. And there you have it. Nothing to do with the tortoise's head touching cloth, just an innocent way of acknowledging an awkward situation.

@catogrande totally relevant to fucking frightening females. Thank you for clarifying
