After starting the lawnmower on the first pull, that's funny haha.

I wonder has anyone ever used that sign while listening to St. Anger. Maybe only to stick a horn in each ear.

i'm not...you are scum.

i generally know them as the devil horns. i might be a bit stupid but i didn't immediately make the connection. until i read the thread. then i had a chuckle.

just admit it would be better if it was about the abundence of ska-metal.

It pisses me off when in school I see someone give the horns for passing a test. they are like a tux. special occasions only. that's how i feel. and it must be rock/metal related.

ronnie james dio (padanova if you wish) made them popular by and for metal, althought i can understand how people sorta feel the need to throw em up whenever. i mean they are the absolute celebratory gesture, i cannot think of a better way to celebrate something. i can also understand how people can be angered when they see them at non rock/metal concerts or shows. if i were to see them at such a thing i would be outraged.

and whats that about lennon using them before dio?
im not disagreeing or calling you off but i havent heard of this

and wahts this i hear about simmons using them first? what a dick he didnt invent or populize (duno if thats even a word) them. of that im sure.
