Good question and unfortunately I have no answer. Probably a geo-gang thing.

 

The first one I think is different as that is the international "L" sign for "Loser". Well, OK, maybe not international but you know what I mean.

What it means is this.

 

Jeremy has several avatars all of which can be found in the "Groundspeak" thread in this forum. On of them is is him with the finger thumb look raising one eyebrow. Someone got the idea and I forget why to have some fun with that and we all posted pics of our avatars with the same thumb/finger deal going on. Some went as far to add the raised eyebrow. It was pretty dern funny having a whole thread of everyone posing as Jeremy. Don't bother doing a search for that thread though because all of the avatars have been changed back.

Oh, I remember that.

The subject was what kind of "secret sign" cachers might use to identify each other on the trail. I don't remember which thread it was in, and I don't remember who's idea it was - but the suggestion of using that pose (referring to Jeremy's avatar) as a greeting seemed to catch on. It made for some cute avatars, for awhile.

The fad started when Jeremy changed his picture to have his finger pointing along his chin in a "serious" pose. The rest of us took off on it on the suggestion of Criminal.

 

Note my avatar (a hold over from those days).

The "L" shape was a take off on the take off and is the sign for "Loser".

Hey, my avatar is ready, just a couple clicks and it's back. Should we start another thread?

Well judging by the way things have been going lately I would vote for NO. icon_smile.gif
