I've got a problem. I used to always toss up the "I Love You" hand sign as a casual greeting, fairwell, whatever. And I was cool with that, I liked that hand gesture, nobody else around here really used it. But, then something horrible happened and I don't know how it happened. One day, instead of throwing up the I love you sign, I tossed up a peace sign, and now the peace sign is my go to sign and I can't seem to break the habit. It's become second nature, and now I just look like a douche all the time. It makes me sad

What's the 'I love you' sign? Or just hanging around in uncomfortably small tiger print shorts.

What's the 'I love you' sign? Ah, right, well, in that case, I don't think you really have a problem cause that hand signal is way worse. Just my opinion however.

I just think I look like a tool, because all I can think of is those stupid high school chicks on Facebook who toss up a peace sign in every picture. Seriously, I have no idea how this even started!

I thought this was the heart sign. The heart sign and the I love you sign are different. Although I'm now contemplating tossing the heart sign up as a greeting from here on out just to see what happens

Copious amounts of anime watching? I think those peace signs are thrown up once every 5 seconds in those shows

There is a simple solution to this: Put on a copius amount of weight, start wearing bow ties and bowler hats, take up smoking cigars and deliver every sentence in a bombastic manner with a received pronunciation accent. People have no choice but to believe that you are Winston Churchill (a prominent user of this sign)
Accentuate the positives as Paul Heyman would say.

I do the peace sign too... I tried switching it up but it's hard to consciously change it, man.

Yeah it looks similar, and in essence, is the same gesture, but in Japan what we call the peace sign, is actually a V, it stands for Victory, heh heh, get it? Anyways, in Japan throwing up the V sign basically means you either promise to achieve victory, or you are wishing that someone else achieves victory.

I'm assuming you have two hands, do both the "I love you" and "peace". People will see you as a modern day Fonz.

Maybe I'm out of the loop... But is using hand signs some kind of a trend now? I've never really heard of anyone having a go-to hand sign.
