"Peace man, turn it 'round"

Okay this is more of a rant than anything else. I am sick to death of these little bitches on the internets who are blocking up all the pics with that stupid little back to front peace sign thing. You know what I mean, you can't visit a single MySpace without seeing someone who thinks they're cool or funny or fun or whatever because they have this little symbol. It's not funny, it's not cute, its's not cool. It's so dumb. It has no purpose. You know the ones I mean like this douche bag on the left here, what a tool. It absolutely craps me! What does it even mean?


All great hand signs MEAN something. Throughout the ages we have had many and varied hand signals which have communicated an idea or message. From the ubiquitous "get stuffed" of a two finger pommy "up-yours" to the more american middle finger salute meaning: "I have no comeback and this is the best I could manage". We then moved to the satan symbol or possibly it meant ROCK! Who knows? I'm not too bothered, it's just a dumb old: "I agree with your sentiments, and the way in which I agree is an angry one." Great for a concert or peace rally...





From the depths of the violent hand signals came more peaceful ones. The "hang-loose" which was totally sweet during the... actually was that every popular with anyone other than jack johnson and Ben Harper? hmmm questionable... Coupled with this sign was the good old fashioned peace sign that Jesus heartily endorces. This peace symbol (or as Dan Brown would call it, Femal fertility symbol) was established NOT by hippies but by the Zulu's in Effrikah. Interesting no? The utter corruption of both the peace and get-stuffed/up-yours signs by these purile youths cannot go on any longer. I won't have them catch onto some dumb craze which just undermines the whole hand-sign industry!



You see when it comes down to it there are many and varied symbols in our society. Some are good and some are bad. This new pretentious, "how-cool-am-I-I'm-being-ironic" little piss ant of a hand symbol is so LAME it's just not funny. Don't do it. It's the domain of misguided 14-16 year old girls whose fathers are too weak to teach them how to be strong women.

That is all.

XFD, it's funny because that pic is a parody of friends from SGHS.
