What's with the other hand on her shoulder? Has she been holding that sign for a long time?

As a Cal fan, I really hate that Longhorns crap.

she's trying to push her arm down but the power of daddy is compelling her!

those horns are your father's. take them off!

It looks like she's holding the other hand on her shoulder in preparation for giving a Nazi salute.

Somewhere, Ronnie James Dio is having convulsions.

Yeah, but that's a pretty good bet any day of the year.

Associated Press

Jan. 21, 2005 | OSLO, Norway --

President Bush's "Hook 'em, 'horns" salute got lost in translation in Norway, where shocked people interpreted his hand gesture during his inauguration as a salute to Satan.

That's what it means in the Nordics when you throw up the right hand with the index and pinky fingers raised, a gesture popular among heavy metal groups and their fans in the region.

JuliaA (j_bdules), Friday, 21 January 2005 19:18 (twenty years ago)

Apparently it also means "bullshit" in sign language. I'm not making that up, either.

Speaking as a die-hard thrower of the goats, I lament its misassociation with University of Texas, especially when attempted by a Bush.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 21 January 2005 19:24 (twenty years ago)

no, the UT one is different, you put your thumb over your two downward-tucked fingers.

heavy metal satan salute means you leave your thumb out, bro.

hstencil (hstencil), Friday, 21 January 2005 19:25 (twenty years ago)

This is true, Stence. I was speaking more about the actual horns, though. The nuances of thumb placement seem largely lost on the layperson, though.

You're wrong, and here's an album cover to prove it!

The story behind that painting is that Ken Kelly (the artist) used his girlfriend (or maybe it was his wife) has the model....for all the girls.

Mrs. Gilmore: Rosemary! Go back to bed. You know you're not supposed to be up and around.
Japanese man: Is the mother?
Roman: Rosemary -
Rosemary: Shut up.
Roman: Rosemary -
Rosemary: Shut up! You're in Dubrovnik. I don't hear you. (She slowly walks over to the cradle, sees her child in the bassinet - her eyes widen in terror) What have you done to it? What have you done to its eyes?
Roman: He has his father's eyes.
Rosemary: What are you talking about?! Guy's eyes are normal! What have you done to him? You maniacs!

It would kind of really be awesome if Lemmy showed up and kicked the bippy Bush girl in the back of the head and she, in turn, took out her father. I'm just sayin'.

Je4nne ƒury (Jeanne Fury), Friday, 21 January 2005 20:01 (twenty years ago)

Stence is half-right. The one popularized by Ronnie James Dio in the seventies indeed has the thumb out (see footage of Dio lecturing the audience about it on Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell tour: "A lotta people are sayin' this means somethin' it doesn't mean! But it means 'long live rock 'n' roll!'"). Anybody who'd done it with thumbs-out during the great Bay Area Thrash age('82-'86), though , would've gotten their thumbs snapped off by moshing amphetamine warriors. Quite rightly, I must say, the thumbs-out one is all mellow an' shit.

For the first time in 4 years I am happy about Bush being President. Did they televise the part of the inauguration where Laura pulled the head off of a mulatto baby and smeared the blood on the Constitution with her breasts?

Seldom has one sentence been more wise and correct. Do you think Lemmy can kick over his head though? Years of hard living and all that.

I deeply love this thread. The nuances and appropriate uses of the Devil horns/Hook 'em horns salutes is the sort of question that requires serious and carfeul analysis.

Ash (ashbyman), Friday, 21 January 2005 20:57 (twenty years ago)

Of course he can get his boot up! Lemmy don't play, fool.

Why aren't conservative christians shitting themselves over this? Seriously - this is the kind of thing they run harrasment campaigns about, if Mazza Manson or KISS or I dunno, even Bill Gates did this they'd be all over it.

Doesn't Revelations say something about a leader being the devil in disguise?

In some parts of Italy making that symbol or saying 'facciamo le corne' (let's make horns) is like saying touch wood in English, in other's its done to ward off evil influences.

but it can't be a good, upstanding Christian leader like Bush, oh no.
