That pinchy thing
I don't even know how to google this so I'm asking you guys. What the heck do you call that pinchy thing you do on the screen make things bigger or smaller? You know? Like on a phone? There has to be a name for it.

I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.

Single finger salute comes to mind.

I gesture the screen quite frequently, but I only use 1 finger. (usually at Castanet posters.)

Re: That pinchy thing
I'm glad you didn't call dumb a feeling, lol.
I recall one time a co-worker told me they felt dumb, and I told them that dumb is not a feeling.
