The Claw of Failure is a dramatic hand gesture used by Chris when he wants to emphasize whatever stupid point he's trying to make at the moment. Chris will hold his hand out, palm upturned, with his fingers outstretched and curled upwards, in the manner of a cartoonish villain. Much in the way that Chris steals jokes, ideas, and phrases he uses in everyday speech from movies, anime, video games, and cartoons, he also copies body language and hand gestures. Although normal humans may reference movies and such when it is funny, appropriate or ironic, Chris relies on these to teach him new words, phrases and ideas. In short, Chris is like a feral child, raised by television, who copies the mannerisms of his adoptive parent. When Chris stopped talking as a small child, his parents put him in front of the television for two-thirds of the day, which is about how much TV he watches now. Remember, whenever Chris is playing video games, drawing comics, or watching TV, he often has a TV running in the background, muted and with closed captioning on.
The Claw of Failure is associated with, but not exclusive to, tard rage.
Christian has also shown TV pitchman Billy Mays clutching a miniature dogwood tree in a similar fashion, possibly as a showing of dominance.
