Do you ever "air-scratch"?

Air-scratching...you know when you pretend you are scratching on the turn tables during a scratching part of a hip hop song. I am guilty of this myself, although I know I look ridiculous to the people that witness me in my car doing it. I usually hold one ear, then I scratch with the other. I think they should have air scratching competitions just like they have air guitar competitions.

Update:

Shrunken Fro: Don't try to bust me out. I do air-scratching, just not in your presence, I would look even more foolish if I was scratching with my mom in the car. I do play a mean air-drum set though, you're right.

    Guilty as charged. All the time in my car. I'm a huge fan of 80's hip hop when there was so much scratchin and cuttin. DJ Code Money, Cash Money, Jazzy Jeff.......

    Yeah I do it in the car with the steering wheel or if i'm really getting into some dj piece. Man what's probly wacker is I make the noises with my mouth though I can't beat box for ****.

    Edit-So Since I'm sure when they look in the rear view and see me rapping they think I'm suffering from Road Rage or Criticising their driving or something.

    No, never really thought of it, however I have played air guitar before, there's a pretty cool documentary about air guitar though.

    Yes. Especially when DWYCK comes on.

    Sometimes when I'm in the car I'll use my steering wheel...

    Please allow me to clarify something. Butt is telling a lie. She does not do this. She does do air drums though. Just wanted to set the record straight.
