When did the OK symbol change meaning? I've given up complaining about the assumed meaning of the word gay - my late mother had a friend called Gaye Bunting 😁. I get annoyed about what is now called R&B, but heck, I don't really have a dog in that fight, but this? Bonkers.

Feb 2017 4chan hoax.

Apparently it can also mean zero/worthless, asshole, evil eye or homosexual depending on culture.

Who knew, I always have known it as a non verbal OK sign, eg when diving, noisy sport etc.

Someone had better tell the dive community.

I thought they were playing the circle game (for explanation see Malcolm in the Middle...)

<Someone had better tell the dive community.

Someone had better tell the boss of Tesla, he seems to be under some misapprehension or other about divers...

Yes, it’s a White Supremacy identifier.

It means “I am an anus”...

I’ve always known it as this:

Apparently it can also mean zero/worthless, asshole, evil eye

Also, mass sarcasm.
