hand gestures...

well... i find hand gestures very fascinating. because its universal, and EVERYONE in the whole knows what you're referring to, regardless of the languages. like thumbs up. and well, everyone knows the middle finger. hahahaha..

my post today is to vent off a frustration i "suffered" sometime ago. i was so totally pissed, i was black faced to that person the rest of the day, i wondered if he knew. anyway, i was in gentings (i think) with ruyin. is actually my guy friend asked me, so i jio-ed ruyin along. i really can't remember what the incident was, but i tink we were posing for the camera or something, and i thought the "V" sign was too boring (as in the index and middle finger V shaped, like a "2"? haha) so i posed with the "i love you" sign, like a thumb, index and small finger, you know, very rocker, haha.

after the picture was taken, my guy friend went, "that's a sign for the Devil... you know, as in satan?"

you know how defensive i can be. so i went, "no?! that's a i-love-you sign, very common"

friend continued, almost like looking down on me tone, "HA! you NUS university student you also don't know that's a devil sign?"

at this point, smoke already coming out of my head, i mean, he wasn't even rite abt the handsign, i was so angered that i nearly exploded. but his friends were around, i didnt want him to look stupid, so i didnt argue with him. why bother debating with this ignorant moron? i thought. so i just kept quiet. damn, i should have just retorted back, "excuse me, i'm sorry, i'm supposed to know EVERYTHING because i'm a university student, so you diploma cert guy is much smarter. btw, devil's horns is THIS (signs) " aiyah! why did i keep quiet and not say anything? not even to prove my point? wasted.

for your information, guy friend, the picture on the left, with ONLY the index and little finger up, can be a representation of the devil satan, because of its horns look.
the sign i made, is WITH A THUMB out. this sign's original idea was made using a combination of the letters 'I', 'L', and 'Y' from american sign language, and it consists of extension of the thumb, index finger, and little finger.

yah, its stupid that my mood was ruined because of a hand gesture. its retarded. LOL. but i was really angry at that point. because IF he had talked nicely and politely, or even asking me "eh? i thought that was the devil sign... blah blah" i would have replied and corrected him very nicely too. DID HE HAVE TO BRING IN THE FACT THAT I'M A UNI STUDENT? i mean, i'm sorry i got the brains and luck to study for a degree in NUS, while you're only an IT diploma holder. MY FAULT IS IT??? if he was right, i have nothing to say, have to be humble. but he got his facts WRONG! duh.

moral of the story:

"Get your facts right before you go sarcastic on ppl, dude."

真是没事找事讲,吃饱空闲硬要得罪人.. *shakes head*
