A while back, I took this crappy cell phone picture of one of those “don’t walk” signs in downtown Manhattan that have been neatly transformed into the heavy metal devil horns. (Or maybe it’s the sign language sign for peace—I always get the devil horns and the peace sign confused—but I suppose it’s more likely that the vandals are the metal heads than the deaf people.)
Gawker just noticed one of the signs and posted a tongue-in-cheek piece saying it was not the sign of the devil but the sign of the shocker.*
Duh! How dumb are they! Stupid bloggers. I thought bloggers were supposed to break news and know stuff. Let’s all feel superior in our ability to distinguish between the dirty and the satanic hand gestures.
(Um, seriously, it's the devil horns, right?)
Next time: porn. But this time was kinda dirty, so stop whining.
*If someone's looking over your shoulder, like your boss, you might wanna save this link for later.
when your hand is held horizontally, (palms up) it's also the gesture that spider man makes when he's throwing out webs.
just a thought. i think it's devil horns on that sign though.
