He's totally hiding his tiny hands under the table. What's he hiding under there? Very rude to not keep your hands visible while eating.

I love that the genesis of that was an article calling him a "short fingered vulgarian" aka a common thief but he was too uneducated to realize that and instead thought they were making fun of his small hands. He would send the author pictures of himself with his hands circled in gold sharpie trying to prove that his hands were actually of normal size. The internet then picked up the small hands thing and ran with it.
