Always wondered what all the hand signals meant
Didn’t even read the header before writing that. Cr@p!
Between the Stormtroopers and Boba Fett I’ve definitely seen all of these. But you could always tell what they meant.
Ok except for the “speak up” – that was Luke in disguise when Leia asked him if he wasn’t a little short to be a Stormtrooper.
Uh…also don’t bother me with the prequels.
Prequels? What do you mean prequels? There were no prequels.
Good point. I’ll make sure and remember that
I have been eagerly awaiting the making of the prequels for quite some time. I have seen some leaked footage of them and they look awesome. I cannot wait for them to come out. *continues to live in denial, is happy there*
I saw this “pod race” snippet – it looked amazing! Such great CGI. I can’t wait for it to come out! You just know that there won’t be any whiny little kids in it or aliens that make you want to stab yourself in the eye.
Yeah I saw the pod race and part of the obligatory sex scene with whats-her-name with the long hair and this guy who looked fantastic without his shirt. I think the other person was a woman after the guy took off his shirt I didn’t see much else.
I for one can’t wait to see what Darth Vader is like in his youth. I’m sure he will be quite bad ass even as a good guy. *twitch*
At least R2 was still cool.
Yeah, you can’t possibly make *Darth Freaking Vader* into a whiny little pansy who thinks everything is unfair.
Also they totally know what ‘balance’ means in the prophecy.
…and then the cheezleaders realized there is no comedy in war
I kept seeing Afghanistan as the background for these soldiers. There isn’t a lot funny about being shot at with deadly intent, or about shooting to kill others.
Or in being locked up in a Stalg, like Hogan.
Or being shot at 9 times and surviving, as later on this site.
As in even Bill Mauldin’s cartoons, which are not LOLs AIR, the humor lies in the relationships between individuals.
Huh? The drawings show people in SWAT gear, not soldiers in any war.
It’s clearly happening in urban environment in a first world country…
Looks more like mall ninjas than soldiers to me…
“This is my stop” also translates to “Choo Choo”. Don’t you watch BtVS?
This is my stop actually meant Double Time, to me…
Where is the signal for “This is my rifle, this is my gun, this is for fighting, this is for fun”? I assume they can’t chant that while sneaking up on the enemy prostitutes.
Also, “F**k you guys I’m going home!”? Where is that one?
For those who are interested here’s what they really mean.

But what did this have to do with the Prequels?
Prequels? What do you mean prequels? There were no prequels. Oh yeah, and Han shot first.
LOL! that was awesome! BTW is it me or has the omment box gotten really tiny all of a sudden?
Happened to me as well. o.O
But, it appears you can stretch it out by dragging the bottom right hand corner.
Yep, that works.
It seems to let you keep typing even after you reach the end of the line. I wonder if they did it to try to decrease the TL;DR posts.
I can’t do the drag thing. *repeatedly tries and fails*
*swiftly becomes annoyed*
I F*CKING HATE THIS CHANGE. Why do they do stupid sh!t like this, first the lag Like button, now I CAN’T SEE MY ENTIRE COMMENT BEFORE I POST WITH THIS MIDGET ASS BOX.
I’m going to be more likely to make mistakes in my posts now. Not being able to see what you already have all together is going to make me repeat stuff and make grammar errors.
I CAN ONLY SEE ONE LINE AT A TIME, THIS BLOWS.
Same here. I can’t get the box to expand either.
You’ve got to take the comment box to dinner before it’ll expand.
hurr.
Just clik and drag the little hatch marks in the bottom right corner and you can make it as big as you want.
Not seeing any hatch marks.
Right end of where you put your comment?
Same as keshet, I have no hatch marks.
Nope. They don’t exist. I get a funny looking rectangle at the end of the row when I type past the end of the line, but no hatch marks and no way to expand the box. I’m using Firefox on Mac OS.
COMMENT BOX
Y U NO HAVE HATCH MARKS TO MAKE YOU EXPAND?
I’m using FF too. And I’m not switching to another browser again.
*grumbles*
I sent a message to the Cheezes about the problems I am having with the comment box. It may be something they are working on.
Posting this from Firefox, and, yes, there are no hatch marks and can’t expand from this browser. Didn’t realize it because I use Chrome generally.
So just checked. I use Google Chrome on Windows PC but I also have Firefox and Explorer 8. Explorer has up down arrows but no way to expand. Firefox has no way adjusting it. I suggest down loading Chrome, a programmer friend of mine who works mostly on Mac swears by it. (plus it has a built in spell checker.)
I can expand the box when posting with Safari, but then I have to put up with the @#%@ ads. I like my FireFox (by your name I would have thought you would too
) and it has an auto spell checker too.
My computer hates Chrome, I hate Chrome, not gonna happen.
Firefox also has a spellcheck.
*tempted to go on IE*
I kinda dislike Firefox because I was using Sionnach Teine before Firefox was invented. When I first heard about it was when I started translating it to Gaelic.
Don’t do it Squigs! Anything but IE!
I’m willing to give ‘em a couple of days to see if they work out the kinks.
I used IE forever before last year when my boyfriend downloaded FF because he hates IE. XD
I might just go back if this doesn’t get fixed, but I’d probably only use it for commenting on PK.
Squiggs: Try Opera?
Crud. Opera doesn’t show the hatch marks and can’t expand either. Just provides the scroll arrows.
I think Mega-sock did it so that our posts are full of grammatical errors to hide his post filled with factual errors.
It’s wreaking havoc with my compound sentence structure, I’ll tell you that. I already tend to run-on sentences; how can I possibly make sure they make any sense if I can’t see them in context? Context is essential to me.
How about this then? Run up Notepad (or Wordpad, dependant on version), write your comments in that, then copypasta them into the comment box.
It would be nicer if they’d just fix the box. But I guess if they don’t…
Sorry, no. I find stupid changes like this usually caused by dim programmers/scripters who dont actually use (test) the programs they modify and thus havent a clue when they create problems like this.
As for one line — its perfect for the leftbots here whos majority of postings here are single line spews.
You say that like your posts are worth any more effort than that.
But they are. I cheerfully bring a broad range of anusing revilements and hilariously apt insults on the leftaard useful idiots here with me every time I post.
Flukeworn you are, flukeworm you remain by your own will.
Righty loves slinging insults and not actually trying to add anything of worth.
treat others as you want to be treated, little boy.
If you take insult every time I say what you and the other leftbots say is BS and part of a floatilla of dishonesty and/or delusion, that is your problem.
Wait?
So we have to take responsibility for our reactions when you insult us?
Oh good, I thought it was just me. This box blows. They must want us to keep it short. Han shot first, but that’s only because…well I really hate to do this to you but…it’s #3. If you can bear the first two (which aren’t much prettier) you’ll see – http://www.cracked.com/article_19001_17-images-that-will-ruin-your-childhood.html
No, not IE. Has to be firefox, with or without the effing drag option. I don’t care if IE does have tabbed browsing now; they can never win me back ! Hmph.
Same here. first thing I did get i got this PC was install Mozilla.
I used Firefox for a good long while until they started turning it into a memory hog. I switched to Chrome. I wish they’d fix that problem in FF because I want to go back.
I used IE for the longest time before switching to Firefox.
What do you mean by Firefox being a memory hog?
The longer I have FF open, the more available memory it begins taking from my computer. It seems that I’m not the only one that has that problem. There seems to be a leak or something that hasn’t been fixed in any of the most recent releases.
Soon, Firefox begins causing my HD to thrash wildly and I can’t even shut it down without going to Task Manager and killing it there.
I’ve had that problem a couple of times.
But that’s not important. What do you mean by Firefox causing memory problems?
FFFFUUUUUU–
I’ve heard that Firefox has a memory leak a couple of times now, but the other guy I’ve heard it from is a MickeySh@ft fanboy.
That’s the first thing I did with my PC and my laptop (when I had one). The second thing I did was uninstall Norton (completely got rid of it) and installed avast! anti-virus. Sped up the puter, and best of all, free updates.
How much does avast cost?
Cause I’m flying without a virus protection program right now…
I’m using avast! and the one I’m using is free.
Like daniel said here’s a free version of avast! you can download. It’s what I have, it seems work very well, I’ve yet to encounter a problem with it.
I only know of the free version, I refuse to pay for something like that.
Same with my ad-aware and spy doctor.
Found all of these interesting. The hand signals are pretty much common sense or in common use, like “get down” or “listen.”
Thanks for the link(s).
I think I would get confused because “something is wrong with my gun…again” and “my battery died” are too similar.
My problem would be if I saw the “I can’t reach this pocket (assistance requested” signal I would think the guy just dropped a nasty fart and would back away and leave him there.
Wedding party spotted. Warm it all up! EVERYTHING YOU’VE GOT!
Cheezburger, why U change comment box? Stop it now!
Agreed! Micro-commentbox might be OK for folks who have nothing to say, but not for the rest of us. Help, please?
And whats the hand sign for “There is a Leftist reporter standing with the enemy” ????
Probably the same as if there was a rightist standing with the enemy.
Yes, let us know when you ever see a rightwing reporter standing with AMERICA’S Enemies (notice Ive left out people YOU lefties consider YOUR enemies ).
http://liveshots.blogs.foxnews.com/2010/09/25/sitting-with-ahmadinejad/
Not exactly a warzone.
No American troops in sight facing the ‘enemy’.
Sorry, your comment in non sequitur
Wait…now it has to be in a “warzone”?
Righty loves moving the goal post.
Sorry if I’m being a bit weird, just following that golden rule the sock loves to ignore.
Why else would we have soldiers somewhere in full wargear with loaded guns giving handsignals??
Yes thats the context where soldiers would see a lefty ‘journalist’ standing with their enemies.
Interviewing the Lil Hitler of Iran isnt exactly that situation.
But then maybe you just dont know much about America solders except that you just dont like them ???
Where the hell did he ever, even once, say he doesn’t like American soldiers?
And why do I get the feeling you would just love it if they shot every journalist out there just in case they might be left leaning?
You said that a right-winger would never “standing with the enemy” so when I pulled out Fox News interviewing Ahmadinejad, then you had to rush to spin it a different way.
Also, which “leftist reporter” ever “stood with” anyone that is an enemy of America?
Please list their name(s) and which “enemy” and when.
I never declared anyone my enemy, you declared yourself the enemy of anyone who isn’t on the right.
Not saying I’m on the left, just that I’m not on your side.
Also, righty loves projection.
Yay! Projecting time!
So by ‘enemy’ you mean terrorists, which you your mind means ‘anyone who looks vaguely arabic’. So you’re angry at Leftist reporters trying to interview the people living in the Middle East how hate the war as much as we do!
How’s that, am I in the ballpark?
Many lefties dont remotely look ‘arabic’.
And you are very ignorant/unobservant if you believe I only see ‘terrorists’ as my (America’s) enemies. Terrorists are actually only a minor threat to America.
Yeah, everyone knows that bears are the #1 threat to America!
What about Sharks?
And Kim Jong Il?
Nope, BEARS!
Oh and thats strike three.
This has been on the strategypage website for a while already. Glad someone broke it into more manageable pieces, though.
http://strategypage.com/humor/articles/military_jokes_20052271.asp
Or on second thought, maybe not so manageable chunks.
Has anyone got a link to the actual hand signals?
http://www.airsoftgent.be/dbase/hands.htm
Whats the hand signal for ‘Should I take an order from an Inelligiable President” ???
If one was in office there might be one.
“Inelligable”? You mean “ineligible” right? I imagine it’s hard to type with socls on your hands.
*socks, It’s hard to type with gloves on, It’s fvcking cold in my house.
Danbala’s law strikes again.
Well, that post was certainly bordering on illegible.
I like turtles
