I like using "as though" or "as if" in emotes when there follows a hypothetical explanation that is exaggerated and not necessarily directly communicative of a character's thoughts, so much as giving an example of the expression! Such as "*Blinks and raises her eyebrows up as though George Bush had just appeared in a pink bunny suit...*" or "*Yelps in pain for no apparent reason, as if her chair had suddenly grown spikes in inconvenient places...*"

It may be superfluous, but it's not really telepathy - and judging by Frances' comment, might give other people the chance to respond to previous comments, anyway. :P
