Apologies for the grey GIF box there, instead of a traditional photo post - but after multiple tries and varying the image’s parameters, I simply couldn’t get Tumblr to accept the file.

So click it. Or don’t. What started out as funny is now annoying but at some point you’ve put effort into it and you feel like you have to post it, despite its limitations.

Over-explaining it this way sure does drive home the comedy, doesn’t it?

And it wasn’t until I was nearly finished when I realized I’d animated the wrong hand. So that made me happy, too.

This has been a colossal waste of time. Please move along.
