You might be shocked.
See there's this guy in MegaMan called ElecMan. I wanted to call a card in the first set "Shocker." One of the boys cracked up, making the hand signal and saying, "If two fingers don't rock her, give her the shocker." Undaunted, we made the card anyway. Turns out it's also a Magic card, an insect creature (?!) from the Tempest set. The Chicago Sun-Times published this article about the shocker.
If you don't know what the Shocker means, it seems innocuous. So some college sophomore is hiding his ring finger and waving his hand while sporting a little bit of an evil grin, so what?I provide for your further elucidation a labeled image and two young ladies demonstrating the maneuver (just the hand sign boys, calm down).

It's the thought that counts, Chuck. I never knew that something I heard during a lewd conversation in 1994 would've come so far!
That one's a classic.
A little ashamed to say, I nearly used it on a soccer ref who got a little out of a hand at a game I was at...
Until I realized he was quite a bit younger than I, and would probably be the ONLY other one who understood it; not quite the "sneak" I'd hoped to get away with.
