    Yeah, also learned that a few weeks ago. I’ve used that with kids for the better part of my life. And the Pommesgabel (Sign of Horns, the metal music hand gesture) which I guess should be done correctly now, or it could be mistaken, too. Like when you’re too drunk and not in full control of your fingers anymore. You wouldn’t want to become a turkish far-right extremist by accident.
