Today, I was at my friend's Bar Mitzvah. After he finished his long-winded speech, I sarcastically did the mockingjay sign from the Hunger Games. It took a couple of seconds before I realized how that looked, and a couple more for me to be shouted down and kicked out. FML

Way to go dude. Not every activity you do with a friend needs to have some kind of a joke or stunt pulled during it. I can't even imagine how humiliated your friend must have been.

Not necessarily. His friend could be younger than him.

Just do the hang loose symbol or something like that that will never be offensive

You have no understanding or respect about what the Bar Mitzvah is to Jewish people, do you. Maybe your friend joked about it and whined about all the studying he had to do beforehand, but I'm sure at that moment he was feeling very accomplished. YDI for even wanting to do something sarcastic in the first place.

Took me way way too long to realise why that was bad. Way too long. Go me

if they couldn't take the heat, they should've gotten out of the oven

ydi for imitating a dumb book/movie franchise!

**** you. That's a sacred day and you decided to make a mockery of it. You should feel bad. Not because you looked like a nazi, but because you thought the most important day of your friends young life was an appropriate time to make a cheap joke as well as insult the speech your friend probably slaved over.

Don't feel bad, the mockingjay symbol is also the scouting symbol and the symbol of a Jewish youth movement
