For those of you who don't know what The Shocker is, Wikipedia explains:

The shocker is a hand gesture with a sexual connotation. The ring finger and thumb are curled or bent down while the other fingers are extended. The index and middle fingers are kept together (touching) and the back of the hand faces outwards (away from the gesturer). The gesture refers to the act of inserting the index and middle fingers into a vagina and the little finger into the unwitting anus, hence the "shock". Because of its explicit sexual connotation, the shocker is sometimes considered vulgar. Occasionally, the thumb may be positioned so that it may stimulate the clitoris. Mnemonic rhymes are used in order to remember its meaning, including "two in the pink, one in the stink."

P.S. Yes, this is a real photo as seen on the official presidential website under News Releases.

That's the university of houston hand sign, not the shocker - middle and index fingers should be together for the shocker. Posted 11/13/2008 1:20 PMReply

Looks like this might not be true:

Yes, it's the pitchfork- but who's to say a sun devil wouldn't use the shocker? I mean, really now, I'm a devil and I like sex- my pitchfork goes in both holes. :) Posted 11/13/2008 3:30 PMReply

@ Anonymous: I've been going to ASU games in most sections of the stadium, including the student section, for about 25 years, and I've never seen the kids put their fingers together. Posted 11/13/2008 5:33 PMReply

That's the hand symbol for ASU. ASU's mascot is a sun devil who carries a trident/pitchfork which is represented by that hand symbol. Posted 11/13/2008 6:57 PMReply

It is quite funny how all of the Obama supporters are following him as blindly as the Bush supporters have followed him. The truth is that Obama plays for the same team. Do some actual research. Obama was selected as president by the Bilderberg Group and the Tri Lateral Commission in hopes of furthering the agenda of the New World Order. In fact Google New World Order in Google News and the first headline from today is "G20 hopes to discuss plans for New World Order". Obama will carbon tax people and install militarized youth groups. He even mentioned youth brigades in one of his campaign speeches. He mentioned that they will be as well funded as the US Army. Scary thought huh. Well I know in the zest to change this country people voted for what looked like obvious change and they will indeed get change. Change that will cripple the US and allow the large multinationals a chance to gobble up all of our land and assets. Posted 11/14/2008 4:48 PMReply

BAAHAHAAHAAHAHAAA break out the tin foil hat buddy! On second thought, don't bother. It sounds like they've already got to you.

How do you manage to get dressed and go outside in the mornings when you're that deep in your paranoid delusion?

I'm no professional but I'd suggest that a good therapist might do you a world of good.

Hilarious! Thanks for the side-splitting laughs. Posted 11/14/2008 4:55 PMReply

ASU isn't giving the shocker. the pointer and middle finger aren't touching. I go to Wichita State where we are the Shockers. we give the actual shocker hand sign, but with the thumb out Posted 11/15/2008 1:26 PMReply

Its called a trident or pitchfork. Its been the Sundevils sign forever and its not meant to be sexually suggestive whatsover. Ignorant people should get their facts straight and need to do a bit of research before they assume things. GO DEVILS!!! Posted 11/17/2008 01:12 AMReply

even if that was supposed to be the shocker they're doing it wrong: the index and middle fingers are supposed to be together. but alas, the gesture seen above is the ASU pitchfork (or the UH cougar paw). although i will say i can't see any similarity between that gesture and a pitchfork or a claw. unless the pitchfork/claw in question are really messed up.

Its the hand signal for ASU. They are replicating the pitch fork in the mascot's hand.

Yeah, you could do a pitchfork with your pointer, middle and ring - no need to skip the ring and go for the pinkie. Arizona must be the slowest state in the nation. Posted 11/21/2008 4:05 PMReply

yeah this is pretty stupid... Wichita State University uses this same sign. Not that kind of shocker. Plus that's not even what the shocker looks like. The fingers have to be together.... otherwise it doesn't make a whole lot of sense... Posted 11/26/2008 2:22 PMReply

The sign originated in 1953 in a game between Texas and Houston. It was started by Texas fans after they learned that the UH mascot a cougar had lost a toe. Texas fans threw the sign (cougars paw with missing toe) to mock UH. UH picked up on the sign and started using it sparingly. The next time UT and UH played was 1968 and the game ended in a tie. UH then adopted the hand sign to represent the cougars paw(with missing toe), but with the hidden meaning of F-U UT since it is the UT longhorn sign with the middle finger added. It has been adopted by several universities since, but it was originated in Texas. Posted 11/30/2008 09:45 AMReply

Speaking of George W. Bush:

George W. Bush committed hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism (indicated in my blog).

George W. Bush did in fact commit innumerable hate crimes.

And I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed other hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention.

Many people know what Bush did.

And many people will know what Bush didÃ¢ï¿½ï¿½even to the end of the world.

Bush was absolute evil.

Bush is now like a fugitive from justice.

Bush is a psychological prisoner.

Bush has a lot to worry about.

Bush can technically be prosecuted for hate crimes at any time.

In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.
