horn etiquette motherfucker

goat­lady and I have been attend­ing quite a few metal gigs lately, and I’ve noticed a dis­turb­ing trend. The band is on stage, they’re rock­ing the crowd, and the crowd is flash­ing the horns… but no, half of the peo­ple look like they are hold­ing fuck­ing crooked lit­tle stumps in the air.

God­damit, if you are going to flash the horns, HOLD YOUR FUCKING FINGERS STRAIGHT. Don’t give me this limp wristed, half bent elbow wave. Is your hand bro­ken? Do you have no mus­cle con­trol? Is your mas­cara run­ning into your eyes caus­ing you too much pain? Come on peo­ple… \m/
