Can you share the joke???

Errrr....hmmm......well......I say a 'joke' because in the context of snl I suppose it would be that. In England that hand gesture means er.....basically the same thing as the 'middle finger gesture' in USA...it used to be exculusively used...but as American culture through films and tv shows is more familiar to us now...we also use the middle finger too...if you used either one, in England we would get the message....

We call it sticking your fingers up at someone. And you can use one or two hands...depends how strongly you feel!!

There is another picture of Jake at an event...I haven't got time to find it this morning....where he is making that hand gesture sitting in at an awards dinner or something...and the English ladies here have always had a little giggle at it. I'm probably naughty for pointing it out....I'm just bad. No other word for it.

BTW. If Jake had his hands turned the 'other' way..as in his fingers and thumb being at the front with the two fingers sticking up just the same that would mean something else entirely, and that is Victory or Peace.
