Shits 'n giggles

I like this one. The tie between "eat" and "hungry" works.

There's an ick factor imagining a middle class American using a sign that'd also be a good fit for people who are literally starving. So that leaves me unsure. But this is certainly in the right spirit.

Ooooh, but the other uses of the sign increase plausible deniability.

The feeling behind the finger is simple and sufficient if directed toward the fascist/racist, but wouldn't work to show solidarity to others; it'd amount to the California Howdy.

 

"Secret" is tongue in cheek.

We know people flash the white power hand sign when having their picture taken, as if it isn't a racist dog whistle.

The Bloods have a hand sign. I'm impressed that one can spell the entire word with one's hands.

Jeep drivers have a cutesy hand wave that signals a common identity with other Jeep drivers.

AFAIK there's no hand sign that espouses the Eat The Rich sentiment. There's an opportunity to create something new where one doesn't yet exist.

If "Eat the Rich" produced a secret hand gesture, what would/should it look like?

I understand the argument of "This doesn't help; instead write to your congressman or volunteer to burp newborns." I get that, but this is independent of that.

This truly belongs in AskLemmy but their (justified) temporary ban on US politics seems to discourage this question.

"Fee speech" is a serendipitous typo. Or maybe you meant it. First I've heard it, anyway.

First glance at the thumbnail made me think I was looking at an old pickup truck with a desert camouflage blanket over it.

I can't claim to know what all this feels like to trans people, but Andy Beshear is not your enemy.

I say as an atheist - if all religious people shared Andy Beshear's flavor of god delusion, the world would be a better place.

This doesn't meet the bar you want, but my marketing professor called the .99 idea the single greatest thing to come out of marketing in a century.

Speaking of driving, that could be a protest measure. Super simple, super legal. Just obey all traffic laws, stay to the right, AND always drive 5 below the speed limit.

Sure it could elicit gunfire, vehicular assault, stalking. But the rear view mirror theater will be to die for.

Some women would be harmed by their husbands if discovered voting blue. I think those women feel a ringing in their souls when they watch that ad. Neut is grasping for any spin at all "ghwuaaahhh dishonesty!". If he was aware of the women who'd wear their husbands' reactions on their faces, he'd never admit it. But I guarantee the mere concept of sparking spousal abuse hasn't even occurred to him, that he's not seeing past the "dishonesty" part.

It's like waving salami in your derpy blind dog's face but he bites air 90 degrees in the wrong direction. Shit you'd think his smeller's busted too. How the fuck he manages to use the bathroom without tracking his own shit through the house is a fukkn X-file.

Today at work my team rolled our eyes at the latest uttering of "This is a living, breathing document." I then joked that maybe we could give the spreadsheet some warts and some hair. That got me thinking - are there skins/mods for Excel that are cartoony and ridiculous? A cursory web search only turns up things that look "professional".

Have y'all seen that nasty skin banana? Doesn't this world have that, but in Excel? I'd like to see each cell have not-so-straight lines, some cells with little bumps/warts here and there, and little gross hairs in the corners. Bonus points if they pulsate. A pivot table could maybe have an appearance like it's protruding out of the sheet, like a cartoon character who swallowed a safe and you can see the big square on their belly. Filtered rows could look like old skin wrinkles. "Excel illustrated by the one(s) responsible for Ren and Stimpy," I guess.

And that's just one gross hypothetical version. How about themes like Lisa Frank, or the menu from a Final Fantasy game. Think about the worlds in Super Mario Bros 3. Couldn't we have spreadsheets that are themed like a desert, an ice world, or a jungle.

I'm running out of ideas but hopefully you get the picture.

DO THESE EXIST?
