Here's what that fake sign language interpreter was actually saying. »
"Cigarette talking to you very much!"(Skip to 1:42 to get to the good part.)I think the most absolutely amazing part of this whole fake sign language guy at the Nelson Mandela memorial thing is not that somebody actually had the balls to try this in the first place or that Thamsanqa Jantjie somehow conned his way up onto that stage despite having a history of fake sign language incidents. It's not even that most didn't realize that he was very obviously signing the same five or so words over and over and over again.No, the most amazing part of all this is that we're only just now learning what words he was actually signing! And it took Jimmy Kimmel to get the truth out! How was that not the first thing conveyed to the world immediately after telling us that this guy was fake? And I'm not just putting the blame on the media! I'm pointing the finger at me as well! (What is the sign for pointing a finger, btw?) And you! All of us! We should have demanded to hear Thamsanqa Jantjie's message of "inside joining in cigarette inside circle talking to you so far" a long long time ago!For shame, all of us! For shame!(by Dennis DiClaudio) Source Main page (current trends)
