A sight almost as rare as bigfoot or the fountain of youth, if you do see one and tell other people they will not believe you.
Many believe it to be an urban legend or a made-up and baseless hoax made by BMW to make drivers feel safer whenever they're behind a BMW car.

Jim: "Bro, did you see that BMW car using it's turn signal?"
John: "You must be on something or lying, everyone knows that's an urban legend."

Get the BMW car using it's turn signalmug. When your in a left lane at an intersection and right as the light turns red you slam the gas pedal and honk your horn so traffic knows your coming.

Get the changing lanes without using your signal mug. Occurs when your phone displays completely full bars, thus ascending in a shape that resembles an erect penis (a boner).

Get the signal bonermug. The act of signalling exclusivity or secrecy, even when there’s no substantial reason. It mimics in-group dynamics to create a heightened sense of importance, often leaving outsiders feeling excluded, even when the content is trivial.
Super-signalling can be thought of as a kind of unintentional gaslighting. The term comes from the 1938 play Gas Light, where a man drives his wife to the brink of insanity by gradually dimming the lights in their apartment while pretending that nothing has changed.
Super-signalling operates similarly, although more subtly. There’s really nothing there, yet our very human Fear Of Missing Out is triggered. While gaslighting is deliberate, super-signalling is often unconscious—those engaging in it are likely unaware of the (super) signals they’re transmitting.
The behaviour is rampant on social media. Vague status updates, cryptic tweets, or ‘stories’ that hint at something significant without revealing any details are the digital equivalent of those whispered huddles. They tap into our instinct to belong, leaving us wondering what we’ve missed.
The same is true for airy corporate slides with conspicuous stamps of saying “CONFIDENTIAL,” when it’s apparent that they contain little of substance.
Or scientific presentations where heavy smoke screens of technical jargon obscure the fact that the subject being studied is actually quite inconsequential.
As Gertrude Stein once quipped: “There’s no there there.”

Get the Signal Dancemug. 🤙🏾🤙🏾 When you’re chill no matter what the outcome is you do the Flip hand signal. Derives from cowanbunga surfer attitude. Use both hands only one if it’s not that chill.
