This is a question Eccentrics

We all know someone who's a little bit strange - Mum's UFO abduction secret, or the mad Uncle who isn't allowed within 400 yards of Noel Edmonds.

Tell us about your family eccentrics, or just those you've met but don't think you're related to.

Don't ask me why we call it the Universal Greeting when only we use it.
It's in part a Masonic Hailing Sign

I'm guessing it's an in Joke from some of the male members of your family

But
My Dad and brother don't use it, it's usually only me and Mothership that use the sign. Very useful on railway platforms.

I thought the universal greeting was something like
Bada Weet Grada Weet Niddybarng?

If you say so.
Like I said, it's 'universal' only to us

No, the hailing sign is pictorial
Greetings are usually "Lettered" or "Halved".

I could go on, but it would spoil their fun.
