    2 years of ASL in college. They are not faking it, and fyi the middle finger does not mean **** in ASL. In Japanese sign language it means Mountain, or brother.

    Those waves and gestures are not as easy to do as they appear to be...They are communicating. Took me over a year to learn it..and that is a long time for me..lol

    If I waved my hands and fingers and made faces, is it possible by random chance that I could fool a deaf person into thinking that I said something?
