Gesture of the drowned bug
Picked up gesture of the drowned, my use item started spamming itself.
Here's the result. Game dropped to 1 fps in 5 seconds.

Yes, this is a known bug/exploit. Picking up GOTD before picking up equipment can cause the equipment to fire once per frame.

This can be used to give yourself god mode with Foreign Fruit, or crash your game with The Backup. It will most definitely be fixed in a later patch.

That isnt a bug, this is the intended use of gesture of the drowned. Somehow though you managed to do it with only one instead of 6, could also be because you kept swapping equipment but i dont know for sure.

Gesture of the drowned reduces cooldown by 50%.
I picked it up with no use items (bought from bazaar)
Next stage I picked up missile launcher, and it instantly started firing (yep, working as intended, no issue here). BUT, its cooldown went to something like 7165671 and it fired non-stop (now that's an issue). I thought it would stop if I picked up another use item. So I did. And it instantly spawned hundreds of drones, and there was no end to it.
Had to ALT+F4.
I played with gestures before. Had like 3, reduced royal capacitor CD to about 3 seconds, I think.
Great item, but this bug...

it happens when you load into a stage with no equipment but you have the gesture. if you're Mul-T you can just swap equipment then swap back, other than that your sol unless you have more than one. my advice, only grab things like missle launcher or capaciter, dont grab something that spawns entities like the meteor, cube, or back up

So basically only pick it up AFTER you got a use item. Gotcha, thanks for help

Gesture + meteor in challenge = 3fps and I died in newt's room.

The bug clears out if you change levels. With drones you're screwed, but in a match my friend picked up radar scanner, and we powered through and got to the next level, where the madness finally ended.
