Do you see people shrugging?

[Draconis]

People used to shrug more when I was younger. Im sure if it.
I never see people shrugging anymore. I don't shrug either.
Do you shrug?

Such a random question but no I can’t remember the last time I shrugged or saw anyone shrug. Maybe ‘I dunno’ has replaced shrugging 😂

I'm a shrugger. I love to shrug. But yes I fear it's a dying art here. Still going strong in France (bof).

I do! I enjoy a good shrug of the shoulders

Maybe our shoulders are so tensed up all the time that they are not very shruggable anymore.

A friend sent me a message with the shrugging emoji on it and I thought 'does everyone understand this shrugging emoji when people don't tend to shrug anymore?'

Me, my husband and the kids are all shruggers.

I'm in bed and did a little shrug, just to see.

You're right. It DOES seem like a long time since Ive done this 😂

You are right. Must shrug more. The word 'shrug' has lost all meaning now that I have read it so many times in the thread ... Shrug shrug shrug.

I think you're right. I used to shrug a lot, I just had a little practice and it seemed unfamiliar. I'm also in public so probably looked a bit odd

I think I tend to do a sort of downturned mouth, slightly raised eyebrows slight head tilt now instead of a shrug. It's less weird looking than it sounds. I hope.

You're right. I'm going to make a conscious effort to shrug more!

(I must do it sometimes because my 6 year old does does a good "I don't know" shrug)

Ex dp is Greek and shrugging is a way of life. I've adopted it, complete with 'Ehh' and turning the corners of the mouth downwards to show nonchalance/unbotheredness.

It does feel odd when I just did it so I think you are right, I don’t shrug either.

I do!

I might have as a teen, I guess in the UK it's considered a bit rude. I do do the facial expression that @GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut describes, perhaps accompanied by a twitch of the shoulders

Sadly it is considered rude I think which is a shame. Kids doing it at adults is rude and adults doing it to each other could also be quite rude depending on the circumstances. But I do intend to shrug more as actually it’s a useful gesture like eye rolling. Better than words sometimes!

🤷‍♀️

It appears I haven't shrugged in some time. But my shoulders are permanently at ear height so may be that's why.
I do however say "meh" an awful lot. Maybe this is now my shrug?
Somewhere in the far reaches of my wardrobe are two tshirts that say, free shrugs.

Might dig em out.

I'm a proud shrugger🙂
Shall have to keep an eye out for fellow shruggers tomorrow.

Ah I love this question. It made me smile and also do a shrug at the same time, but no I don’t think I ever shrug. Maybe I’ll take it up now.

I think I'm more of a head tilter and frowner than a shrugger. I plan to make sure I do at least a couple of shrugs tomorrow though.

Shrugging is a french thing too

They don't really roll their eyes much like Brits

DD loves a big gallic shrug

does my nut😂

Haha and me 😂

Blimey! I forgot about the actual motion. PP is correct, it's been replaced with "I dunno". Shrugging seems to be the same as that sound your speakers used to make when your phone was about to go off. Just upped and vanished and we all forgot.
