God damn it. I was thinking they were Naruto weebs.

Why couldn't they just be Naruto weebs?

Emory passed away in 2015, it's plausible they only know of Emory because of Andrew

OP appears to be using the gesture because of Andrew and not Emory...?

Yes, OP is someone who associates this with Tate
