From observing myself and other high functioning autists, I have managed to write down a list of gestures and behaviors people DO NOT approve and will cause them to retaliate against you.
These do not stem from typical loser behavior (staring down, being submissive) but rather being overly tense and alert, a common pattern exhibited by predators and people who are up to no good.
The following gestures usually mean war and render submissive people uncomfortable, and dominant authorities confrontational and willing to fuck you up.
Avoid doing these in public.
Looking around for no reason
Many aspies do this because of their innatural alertness.
You're scoping out the environment, actively looking for enemy backup and an opportunity to attack the person your talking to.
Do not this, keep your view steady at all times.
Look down if you have to but never to your sides.
Widening your eyes
Another assburger classic.
You're augmenting your field of view for better perception and throwing an attempt at scaring the person you are looking at.
Keep your facial expression relaxed.
Tilting your head downwards (but not your stare)
Translates to you being overly focused and your assault being imminent.
Do not do that unless you really mean to, it's very rude.
Showing teeth
Some people leave their mouth open when talking to others, either due to mouthbreathing tendencies or for no reason at all.
It's an extremely hostile gesture.
You're showing off your weaponry: like pulling a blade out of your pocket or revealing a concealed firearm under your shirt.
It means you are willing to take a bite out of their flesh are they to stir up a fight against you.
Low response times
Lagging behind or taking seconds to reply to someone, an autismo evergreen.
Means full blown hostility.
You're more concentrated on sizing them and planning an attack than what they say.
Words do not serve their purpose anymore and you are actively lusting for wartime.
Refusing to be touched
Some overly confident guys and girls touch people to squeeze their true feelings out of them.
By opposing to that - even as a reflex - you signal that your defenses are active, you are not relaxed and war is an option.
Closing doors behind you
Many autists do this as a result of trying good manners too hard.
It is a threatening and VERY offensive move.
It basically means you want to leave the person you're talking to bereft of ways out.
Doing this will skyrocket the cortisol levels of any NT person and guarantee conflict.
Occupying exits, gateways or door frames has a similiar effect: you don't want people to escape.
Asking for too much privacy
Attempting to move conversations somewhere else or acting weird when in public.
It means you want to strike an attack and remain undetected as to prevent backup from supporting your target.
Safe, comforting human interactions happen in front of everyone (unless it's sex or something intimate).
Being overly clothed
People take their jackets off to lower their temperatures and expose their body as to signal their comfort within the area.
Some aspies forget basic stuff like this.
By not letting your clothing off, you signal others that your defenses are still active and you came armored to sustain combat.
Outrightly avoiding conversation
No need to explain this one.
If you didn't come to socialize, you came to antagonize others.
People will perceive such behavior as the ultimate threat and will do everything in their hands to make you leave.
There is no justification for being silent in a social environment: you refuse to expose yourself because you are not friendly.
