Title: Can You Do the Vulcan Salute
Post by: Al-1701 on February 04, 2018, 06:06:48 PM
Here some random fun.  Can you do the Vulcan hand salute from Star Trek?

Yes I can.

Definitely! I just LOVE Star Trek so much! I would be really mad at myself if I couldn't do it. I can act like a Vulcan a bit sometimes. Logic is best :D

I can but I have to concentrate to keep my pinky and ring finger together:p

Yes, but ask me if I can wink or whistle and that'd be another story.

Yesh!  Live long and prosper!

Here's another bit of trivia.  Leonard Nimoy offered that gesture as the Vulcan salute because he was Jewish.  Rabbis occasionally use the same gesture as a benediction.

Yep! I’m the co-president of the sci-fi and fantasy club at school, and that’s always how I greet club members in the halls. But I cannot wink, whistle or cross my eyes. Strange,huh?

Nope. My fingers won't cooperate with each other.

Yes, ironically I have an easier time with my left hand than right one though.

Nope. My little finger wants to be on her own :(

Yup; easy-peasy. I can whistle, wink, cross my eyes, move my eyes independently of one another, roll my tongue, make a tongue clover, make a hitch-hiker's thumb, wiggle my ears, waggle my eyebrows, arch an eyebrow, AAAAAAAND, when I'm super cold, my kneecaps shiver!!! When I stand and I'm very cold, my kneecaps twitch up and down rapidly. I can do the twitching at will too. Isn't the human body amazing?

Yep. With both hands too.

yep both hands :) I also speak a little Klingon :) xaflame
Title: Re: Can You Do the Vulcan Salute
Post by: RoseNoire on February 05, 2018, 02:30:46 AM
Yes I can, with both hand now. =D
I can also wink with both eyes, cross my eyes and move one of them separately but I can't really control it, I have no idea what it does. x)
And I can crack my thumb indefinitely. Well, that's something. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Yep, with both hands as well! :happy:

You know Al, you didn't tell us if you could do the Vulcan salute. Can you? :p

there should be a response for 1/2 yes 1/2 no.

Im according to Kiwi half Vulcan.

Post by: McKinley on February 05, 2018, 12:51:53 PM
Yep! I can do it with both hands, but it's easier with my left (for whatever reason).

I can on both hands, but it's less of a strain on my right hand.

Yup! On occasion I've been known to clap like that too.

Im according to Kiwi half Vulcan. 

Teehee!

I can do it, but even more impressive, my mom can do it with one of her feet.
Title: Re: Can You Do the Vulcan Salute
Post by: poniesthatsparkle on February 05, 2018, 06:50:17 PM
Yes, I can! I can also wink with both eyes, raise each eyebrow on its own, wiggle my ears, and lick my nose. On rare occasions I am able to actually lick my elbow as well die to my short upper arms and long enough tongue. It's a wonderful party trick.
Title: Re: Can You Do the Vulcan Salute
Post by: kiwimlp on February 05, 2018, 10:02:02 PM
Yes, with both hands.  Funny because I am not even a ST fan!

I can wink both eyes but I can only raise my right eyebrow alone and wriggle my right ear.

Yes, with both hands, it does take a little concentration though.

Love pkw xxx

With my right hand I can do it perfectly, takes a second for my left hand to do it and it's a little wobbly.
Title: Re: Can You Do the Vulcan Salute
Post by: aintnobuffalo on February 10, 2018, 10:34:49 PM
I used to not be able to at all when I was little, but with practice I now can easily. It's easier to do with my left despite being right hand dominant.
