Hmm. Yes. I meant it as a friendly gesture to my friend taking the pic.

I found this sign about 6 blocks from my house on the way to work this morning. So that's where he's been hiding :)

yeah and lets not forget about England. As in Ashley's photo it's "get fucked" but the other way around it's the hand sign used for Victory (dates back to Winston Churchill).

But if you're confused already, don't worry you won't be the first. Here's a nice photo of Margaret Thatcher claiming a victory at a local election:

and the caption:
Margaret Thatcher mistakenly makes a palm-back v sign to English voters after an election gain. It's not the first time a politician told voters to piss off, but just not so elegantly.

I probably would've scoped out the house and then waited for him to show up if I saw that
