I was unaware of that fact. I could have gotten into series (sic) and yuge trouble in Britain.

Funny story about that. From the book "Gestures" by Desmond Morris, Peter Collett, Peter Marsh and Marie O'Shaughnessy:

Early in his career, Churchill used the palm-in two-fingered gesture for "Victory" until a staff member politely told him its actual meaning, at which point he reversed it.

(from the back cover of Morris' book. The gesture in question is #20)
