Indeed ignorance is bad. However, the purpose of writing this is not to condemn anyone, who am i to condemn? Came across this online and thought it wise to share this. Am very sure many of us have done this sign without any evil intention or motive. My question is those these signs makes one to be connected to the illuminati? See photos of hand signals and their meanings after the cut...
1.)The Horn(mano cornuto)
Index finger and pinkie raised; thumbs joins middle and ring fingers. See story at right for the many, many interpretations of this symbol.
2.)OK
The modern interpretation of OK might come from President Martin Van Beren's nickmane, Old Kinderhook. Another explaination comes from an 1839 Boston Globe misspelling of "all correct" as "oll korrect." Beware sending this sign in Germany, the Balkans, the Middle East and parts of South America, where it translates to "orifice."
3.)I love you
Raise index finger and pinkie finger with thumb extended. Drunken partyers osing for photos often mistakenly send this sign when trying to show "the horns." It's the official American Sign Language sign for "I love you" and is a combination of the letters ; I, L and Y.
4.)Peace or Victory
The "peace" or "victory" sign was made popular by Winston Churchill during World War II. The 1960s generation appropriated it as a sign of peace during the Vietnam era. President Richard Nixon was famous for flashing the double "V."
5.)hang lose
The pinkie and thumb are extended from a fist as the forearm twists, causing the hand to wiggle back and forth. this gesture has origin in Hawaii and translates to "relax" or "be cool." Popular among surfers and hipsters around the United States.
6.)Looser
An "L" is formed with the index finger and thumb and displayed on the forehead. The "loser" gesture first made the scene in the 1994 movie "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective." Jim Carrey's character used the sign as his trademark gesture for making sure that those who didn't measure up knew it.
7.)Fingers Crossed
The index and middle fingers of one hand are crossed, with the middle finger being brought over top of the index finger. the gesture traditionally is associated with wishing for good luck or to show the closeness of a relationship.
8.)Shame
One index finger is rubbed across the other. this gesture, known only in the United States, symbolize the friction between the shamer and shamee.
9.)Live long and prosper
The palm is held flat and facing out while the middle and ring fingers are splayed apart, with a space in between. "Star Trek's" Mr. Spock made this gesture famous. Leonard Nimoy, who layed Spock, came up with the "live long and prosper" sign based on the Hebrew letter "shin."
10.)Thumbs up
Modern-day hitchhikers, Arthur "The Fonz" Fonzarelli of "Happy Days" fame and ancient Romans gave meanings to the gesture to get their points across.
