They probably told Bush that it was their "victory sign" at their school or something.

*facepalm*

These next two months can't go by fast enough.

That would be funny if they actually put their index and middle finger together like it's supposed to be. Didn't stop somebody from editing the Wikipedia article about the gesture however.

Acceptable image width is 800 pixels. Please crop your screenshots to fit this width, or they will be browser-resized by me and they will look like crap. This is the second time you have done this.

And mtgrnwdstar, why the hell would Bush know what the shocker is? No American President should EVER know what the shocker is. That should be part of our vetting process. That should be the first question the moderator asks at the 2012 debate: "Do you know what 'the shocker' is?"

If you answer yes, you're done. No presidency for you.

What if the reply is "That lame ass Spider-man villain that was once voiced by the same guy who voiced Captain Murphy from Sea Lab 2021"?

Or they are making Ws since he is George W. Bush. And the University of Arizona is the Wildcats.

I sincerely doubt it is the shocker. Just another thing for people to go OMGWTF GEORGE BUSH IS AN IDIOT LOLOLOLOL.

Thou, because I am wroth, be not dismayed, for I shall win the strife, whoever circle round within for the defence. This their insolence is not new, for of old they used it at a less secret gate, which still is found without a bolt. Above it thou didst see the dead inscription; and already on this side of it
descends the steep, passing without escort through the circles,
One such that by him the city shall be opened to us.

Syd, the page itself is around 900px. I was trying to prove that this is real and not a doctored image. That's why I didn't crop it.

In the future I'll offer a resized version and a link to the full size.

Sorry for getting on your bad side about it. What is the other image in question?

The other was the Barack/Tuvok/Wikipedia one, which I resized almost immediately after it was posted.

Same deal, I was trying to preserve the page size to show it wasn't doctored. In the future like I said, I'll do a small image with a click for full size.

Sorry again.

Schools have "Official" hand signs? How stupid. I don't care if it's a "W" the shocker or your momma's way of getting you to dinner, this is reetardid.

I'd think a Yale fratboy would know what the shocker is.


So here's to you Mrs. Robinson. People love you more- oh, nevermind.

Syd, are you trying to tell me, that you don't think Clinton knew a thing or two about "shocking" the ladies?

He was a member of Skull and Bones, a secret society.

Those boys (and from what I understand now... girls too) take the meaning of fraternity to a whole new level. They aren't thinking about getting laid in their club, they are thinking about how to make money and rule the world.

I'm not sure that he would know the meaning of the symbol, but someone in his staff must.
