They're mimmicing the strain that creating that note with their voice would cause.
It's related to muscle memory and flow state and not really thinking about the individual motions.
They think about the sound they want, and their hands are often just coming along for the ride.
It's a bit like typing a password you've typed over and over.
Is becomes one complex motion and you lose the individual key strokes.
You can see this sometimes when a player is asked to slow a phrase down to teach it to someone, and they have difficultly playing it note by note or transcribing it.
As is mentioned here, there is showmanship in some of it of course, but much of it is involuntary.
You often see players moving their tongue about when playing, not much showmanship in that.
There's also some crossover between sound and taste for some people.
Many of the faces pulled make sense if the person is tasting something very sweet or sour.
I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not, but a dna data base of sorts is already forming.
When people voluntarily do dna genealogy tests they're not just sharing their dna information, they are sharing large chunks of their extended family's dna information.
I've read about dna tested not being an exact mach for someone in the data base but being a familial match and an investigator being able to indentify the person from that.
Having failed to capture me with two consecutive emails containing nothing the the very pertinent "Hello" the scammers have redoubled their efforts lobbing a very compelling "Hello handsome." at me.
I've generally just seen the public facing side of these people.
I've more then once been shocked when a woman here brings me up to speed on how someone behaves behind the scenes. Being told, is different from being targetted though, I'm sure my "shock" wear's off quite a bit quicker.
The slower witted have found their way to the internet over the years.
They're used to be more barriers to entry.
We have always had weirdos I agree, but they were more original, more clever and while annoying they were at least more interesting. Now we have script reading trolls. Now our weirdos are the guys that make awkward conversation with retail clerks and waitresses, thinking they're socializing.
Get all you can done in the next 5 years, and hope for Trump's reelection.
He'll be your ally because he hates the EU.
In the 90 minute dinner party cell phone video recording that dropped in the Parnas story last week he said the EU was built to screw America, and that it is worse the China. Please don't make any decisions with the idea of a long term benevolent relationship with the U.S. based on any idea of American political altruism.
We eat our own, abusing you won't even make news here.
The no one else to blame argument is flawed.
There'll always be an other to blame, now most will be inside your borders.
All things being equal I'd rather it wasn't a thing.
I'd rather give someone a gift because I saw or thought of some thing they'd like or something I wanted them to have, not because it's Feb 14 and a gift is expect.
Most Valentine's Day gifts are a little like reciprocal compliments. The mandatory "You look nice too." part of the mutual admiration society pledge. Completely meaningless to both parties.
That said if someone wanted to use it as a excuse to set a little time aside for each other, my opinion could probably be swayed a little.
So she's considering leaving because she can't win the argument with his parents about what's best for their son, not because his issues are a a burden she's finding difficult to bear?
