Are we going to adopt the Shaka as an official hand sign?

We already have. And it was started by a member of the church. Not stealing.

We were by a Hawaiian tour guide told he was doing illegal dynamite fishing and had an accident. 🙂 the other story

That would be amazingly improbably to blow off only some fingers

I think it’s pretty common actually eg. Jason Pierre-Paul. I’m sure it depends on the size of the explosive, but

JPP was not dynamite fishing tho. changing subject. Accidentally losing fingers

He blew off (some of) his fingers with an M-80. He wasn’t fishing, but I don’t think the fingers care if he’s fishing or

I think OP means copying others by merely having any hand sign at all. Because

It's a Y in ASL. how much more literal can we get?

But people (including Kalani) do the sign backwards, which makes it the Shaka.

The "true" sign is forwards/not backwards. If Kalani, as a Poly, throws up shaka

At the actual sporting events, we do it forwards.

The Y sign is NOT the shaka. It's "Y" in ASL, which is appropriate.
