That but grabbing both legs.

Jumping very high beforehand is recommended.

Maybe this?

I know most people know this as a kneel, but one leg is standing. Just gotta somehow get more than 50% of your weight on the standing leg, thus technically resting the back knee, and this would be kneeling, while standing.

[–] Hubi@feddit.de 6 points 2 years ago

It's only half a kneel, so let's just call it eel.

I was thinking this

[–] SirQuackTheDuck@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Nah, you've seen NPCs do this.

It sounds like this: https://youtu.be/_GGfz-o5khc

All nationalism is brain rot.

[–] pingveno@lemmy.ml 20 points 2 years ago

At its best, nationalism in some forms can help unify people from disparate backgrounds into an imagined national identity. Unfortunately, most nationalism rots into division instead. Christian nationalism in the US, Hindu nationalism in India, Nazis in Germany. These all reject members of the physical nation in favor of their crazed fantasy version.

[–] OurToothbrush@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Anti-colonial nationalism is fine actually. Not ideal but it is basically "everyone here regardless of more local culture should unite in a combined struggle to overthrow the oppressors" as opposed to colonial nationalism.

Camel by camel starts playing in the background

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 21 points 2 years ago (2 children)

This violates the US Flag Code.

[–] Toribor@corndog.social 12 points 2 years ago (1 children)

What if I shape it like the Punisher logo instead?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I want to reply with "fuck yeah!" sarcastically, but it'll almost certainly be taken seriously 'round these parts.

[–] Noodle07@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

"murica, fuck yeah!"

[–] Facebones@reddthat.com 6 points 2 years ago

Bold of you to assume they care about the flag as anything other than an easily defensible dogwhistle.

[–] PolandIsAStateOfMind@lemmy.ml 19 points 2 years ago

Switzerland in shambles

[–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 2 years ago

Anyone who has the USA flag on their clothing, vehicle, or other paraphernalia is someone who I will take pains to avoid.

[–] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

I think these folks have repressed dick sucking fantasies

Stand with your knees on the floor? I guess just lay prone on your stomach? PLANK FOR THE PATRIOTISM CROSS!

[–] odium@programming.dev 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

As a Patriot of Family Values, I always plank for the patriot cross and everyone else should too.

Republicans love a thicc booty.

Who’s making these rules? Why do you need to assume a certain position when you encounter a special symbol?

[–] Dabundis@lemmy.world 11 points 2 years ago

Steel or Knand.

Steal for the Crag

[–] Greg@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) (2 children)

I hope US enemies don't find this. They could use it to force US soldiers to stand up during engagements and then force the US soldiers to kneel when they're doing fire and movement.

Obligatory Flag Code violation notice...

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

Stand for the flag, kneel for the cross, bend over for the government.

[–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Hoover ominously in the air in a crouching position of course.

Like having cancer and AIDS at the same time.

[–] OmgItBurns@discuss.online 3 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I could be wrong, but wouldn't AIDS make it way more likely to get cancer? From my uneducated perspective, that seems like it would be a common thing.

[–] pingveno@lemmy.ml 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Yes. It is normal for your body to have some level of cancer cells, but the immune system constantly keeps cancers in check. As the immune system weakens, cancers are more likely to become problematic. There's even a group of cancer that is so much more likely to happen in AIDS patients that they're known as AIDS-related cancers.

Do the Hokey Pokey and you turn yourself around…

[–] Scribbd@feddit.nl 5 points 2 years ago

This feels like an infinite power glitch. The paradox that happens after showing this picture to nationalist would probably solve the energy crisis. Which would probably make them angry, which would make more energy.

[–] FlickOfTheBean@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

You tear yourself apart!

[–] legostepper@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Slav squat?

[–] LittleBorat2@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 years ago

These people are good at mental gymnastics so it must make sense to them somehow.
