What occult symbolism?
🤫
I am in my 40s and I have seen people use that gesture for my entire life.
It was used for "be quiet" when I was a kid in the 1980s.
It was used innocently, dude.
It's just a meme. A stupid idea, but just a meme.
I did get a bit sensitive to this gesture when I realized what the three monkey statues were actually about, and all the musicians and actors doing it (search “vigilant citizen”, if you haven’t seen it). That said, this was really just throwing a little shade at a bad idea, same as you noted.
And now that I’ve explained the joke, if it didn’t suck before, it definitely does now. It’s ok though. Even if I can’t land a joke, we can land rocket ships now, so let’s call it a draw.
Wait, I think I've heard this before, but remind me about the three monkey statues?
I know it's "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil," but what's the deeper meaning?
And "speak no evil" was covering the mouth with both hands, not one finger, if I recall.
