Terrorist. Fist. Jab.
Also known as the fist bump or fist pound.
What is it?
The venerable wikipedia defines for us:
The fist bump, also called the fist pound, dabs, dap, knucks, and knuckle bump, is a type of friendly gesture similar to a hand shake or a high five. It is performed by two people tapping their fists lightly. A bump also can be known as a symbol of giving of respect. Fist pounds can also be followed by various other hand and body gestures,
This doesn't get at the real truth of the matter though...
Terrorist Fist Jabs recently entered the news cycles when Barack Obama and Michelle Obamas hared a fist bump after he won the nomination. Here's the video:
A quick, sly, seemingly innocent little celebratory fist bump... It was a curiosity though,and many news commentators noted it, talked a bit about it, laughed, and let it fade.
But thankfully, the Fair and Balanced Fox News told us the truth of the matter. On her show "Pulse of America," the wannabe vampire E.D. Hill revealed the truth to this bump:
It's not a sly innocent fist bump...it's a terrorist fist jab!
No, don't try to win me over with your silly arguments that Fox News is just the propaganda machine of the Republican Party, don't try to tell me that this woman is clearly insane...she has told us the truth! Obama is an evil-stinking-vicious-bloodsucking-black-muslim-librul-terrorist in disguise! PANIC!
The brown people are trying to take over our country!
Ignore the hours I bled in New Hampshire, trying to push the insurgent (oh lord, he's an insurgent too!) Barack Obama in the HRC state, ignore the canvassing and calling and spending hours on Excel sheets and all the time I spent convincing my mom and my friends to vote for him...
The Truth is here!!
Sure, she did apologize, and her show got canceled,
but that is just because the godly overlords at Fox are trying to cover up the truth! Still...what does this mean? We can tell where the terrorists are now!
Here are some pictures of terrorists:
(h/t MediaMatters http://mediamatters.org/... )
Athletes? Terrorists.
Actors? Terrorists.
Biden? Liberman? Terrorist. (We all knew this)
Ignore the fact that fist bumps originated from American Athletes, ignore all of that, it's clear that the terrorists are among us, they're all around...hey, wait you could be a terrorist too! OH MY GOD!
