Air quotes annoying or not?

People who make air quotes while speaking made the list of annoying actions that should be a punishable crime. I don't know why but this doesn't bother me at all. I feel like it's showing that a statement is being qualified in some way. What do you guys think? Are air quotes high on the annoying list?
 
People who find airquotes annoying are retards. Airquotes are an important part of communication when used properly.
 
Depends on their usage. If they're used in a pretentious/snarky/ironic way, then that's douchey. If they're used to represent the fact that a word/phrase isn't the technical term but rather something more relatable (such as describing the CPU as the "engine" of a computer) then I think it's appropriate.
 
I thought Dr. Evil ended that practice once and for all.
