I'm loud and opinionated, and if you can't take a joke, you probably shouldn't be around me. My lack of Halloween plans was resolved this year when I was invited to a party by a friend's coworker who had never met me, but had hear a lot of stories. I apparently have a reputation as the life of the party at an international bank.
I don't do many gestures, it's just not me. I make eye contact with everyone and am rarely the first to break it. I scale back the intimidation factor of this by smiling a lot. Monotone is situational, and usually reserved for when it would be funnier than the alternative. Facial expressions vary; I've got plenty, but I'm no Hugh Laurie.
