What does chin-rubber mean?

I don't have much context apart that it's the member of a band who is talking. He says that in the audience, there was teenagers and chin-rubbers

Thank you

"chin rub

when you think someone or something is stupid, you chin rub.
normally you look at them like they are stupid and rub your chin hinting that what they just said is dumb. but when you cannot see the person or do not feel like rubbing ur chin like you have a beard you say chin rub so people know thay wat they said was amazingly stupid and idiotic."
