    It is the national flag of England. It’s also been co-optes by the right as a dog whistle

    Then take it back.

    The ok sign is " just" a common hand sign

    This one? 👌 I see people use it all the time, especially Asians

    14 and 88 are just numbers

    I know, I passed primary school.

        What point? I don’t know what you’re on about in regards to hand gestures and numbers. You made some pretty obvious statements.

            I don’t really use the 👌 gesture except from when I’m in China because they seem to recognise that one more than a thumbs up. As for 14 and 88, I was a 14 year old once but not quite 88. I don’t know what you’re getting at. I know the Chinese also use 88 as a representative of marriage… Along with 999 meaning something and I think I saw a 666 in China as well.

      That’s the thing with shit people.

      You throw a million gallons of clean water into a sewer and you’ve got a sewer.

      You throw 20 gallons of sewage into a swimming pool and you’ve got to drain and refill the pool.
