Smug people doing smug things not realizing they have no idea what they're being smug about.

So that scene in Weinstein's best buddy's film is ********. So utter ******* ********. It's on the level of the "ok" sign being a white supremacist secret code.
If you mean it's weird that the German immediately notices Fassbender putting up his middle three fingers, then you're wrong. I'm german and I instantly found it very weird how he did it, we don't do it like that. It's absolutely believable the German picked up on it and noticed something's not as it should be.

Yeah pretty much. Germans tend to point with the thumb, index and middle finger to signal three.
I'd be wary of a "german" pointing like a *** too tbh.

I'm American, and I also use thumb, index, and middle finger, but that's mainly because I can't uncurl my index finger if my thumb is bent.

You'd do well on r*ddit. They agree with you there. So technically and autistically true. Meanwhile in practical reality, while you and I count from thumb, to index, to middle, because we're European and that's how we count, that's not really how we order beers at a bar. Because if you did, you'd get two beers because in a bar the barmaid won't see the thumb from a distance. This is sign language, not counting.

I can't believe I'm even debating this, but counting with your thumb first is also quite common in UKuckistan, Canada even. Now if he had given the two-finger salute, which is a distinct UKuck gesture, then this scene wouldn't be ********. But they didn't, so it is.

lmao you don't have to tell me you're a cocksucking ******

You broadcast it

edit: for non r*dditors

it is not a hundred percent of Germans doing that in a hundred percent of cases when they order any three of a kind.
it is not a typical / cultural / behavioral thing specific to Germans - other European folks do it to … and beyond.

so you europeans count starting with the thumb right?

does that mean you do finger guns if you want two of something, instead of the peace sign?

and if you just want one you give the thumbs up?

I liked this scene and how it efficiently conveyed Fassbender's fuckup without any dialogue, but I hate how they had to explain it step by step when that chick was patching people up after the shootout. It felt like such a "the audience is full of drooling *******" producer note.

It seems like I'm the only one who starts counting from my pinky judging by the replies. That method always felt more natural to me since that's how my hand opens/closes.

No we don't. Like never. Not even G*rmans are that ********. Never in my life have I seen anyone make a thumbs-up meaning "one". Another good point as to why that Weinstein scene doesn't make sense.

Counting with your hand and giving a sign with your hand are two distinct things. Many refs in the NFL use the "ok" sign to indicate 3. Not because that's how they count, but they want to be extra clear.

I might be that stupid. :lol:

I haven't upgraded my PC in over 7 years and I want to buy something nice for myself.

I'm not committing to anything though, I'm gonna wait for that price tag. And that Veilguard offer :D

I’m tying to guess if the game will be a flop or barley break even. Honestly I’m vacillating between the two.

If it's not an overwhelming success, it's a flop.
They spent years and many millions making it, when they could have been making something better in every way.
I mean, if they hadn't hired incompetent activists.
