#1 classic!

Here's my favorite non-verbal misunderstanding.

What they do: Opening a door or allow you to go first:
What they understand: He thinks I am more important
What they mean: I am stronger, or more dominant than you.

#2 My interpretation:

What they do: Opening a door or allow you to go first:

By the way McNails, I'm a Stewart.
