General
As an Activity
Activities are usually: Speaking, Attentive, or Idle.
However, when the importance of the Pose supersedes the importance of the Activity, “General” is specified instead. For example, the Object Pose is used when a Character is showing a Prop to his or her interlocutor(s), that is more important than whether he or she is Speaking or Attentive, so their Activity is specified as General.
As a Pose
Poses are usually: Forward Pose, Looking Left Pose, Looking Right Pose, or their sitting equivalents.
However, when the importance of an Activity supersedes the importance of the Pose, “General” is specified instead. For example, the Idle Activity is a more important indicator than which way their attention is directed (or, really, it kind of means their attention isn't directed), so when a Character is engaged in the Idle Activity, their Pose is specified as General.
