I KNOW! DID ANYONE TELL Mr FRY ALREADY?

He's going to get a million Twitter fans on his back-we should all just write "Xonald Xeagan"-knowing him he'd freak (in a good way) , not knowing what it's about. ^^

I have mentioned it and so has my friend. Poor Stephen in New Zealand, though--he'd have to think very, very hard to recognize what we were on about.

I wondered what he was on about there.. I'm not fluent in sign language (at least not anymore), but I know that when I learned it, that sign is not an R.. He did say "in American sign language", anyone know the differences between European and American sign language?

He's still cute, though..

I recently gained my Level 1 in BSL/ISL (British and/or Irish Sign Language) and they are vastly different, from what I have seen anyway.

That's what I remember too, but seeing as it's been over fifteen years since I learned any of them (I need to pick it up again).. I can sort of see if Stephen used one half of the two handed BSL R sign, how it'd look like the one handed ASL X.. But like I said, I'm horribly rusty now..

Well when I sign r, it's the crooked right index finger placed on the open left palm

Oh, Q.I forum, I miss you so but why must you always show me an error sign!

I got through there just now, and it says more or less that it looks like Stephen was doing one half of the BSL R, which looks like it's the ASL X : )

I laughed so hard when I saw that. What a great QI moment. :D

i finally got around to watching that episode and as soon as it happened i opened this comm, hoping someone posted something about it.

i went through the alphabet 3 times, first, just to make sure i wasn't making the mistake.
