It is inconceivable that the 6 fingered hand symbol refers to anyone but the author, and Stanford's fez symbol has to refer to Stanford (who clearly has 5 fingers per hand). I prefer the idea that Stanford was either a second asisstant to the author or brother of the author.

Also, I would like to point out that If Stan has an Identical twin, the twin would also have 5 fingers just like Stan. Hence, Stan's twin is not the author. If Stan's brother was not an identical twin, he could have 6 fingers and thus be the author. So...fifty fifty. GRAH- the uncertainty this show gives me is why I love it, EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE!

And while we're on the topic of fingers, I'd think it would be hilarious if Dipper and Mabel just GREW an extra finger one day. Like that's a normal thing for humans in this world, that would be the crayest of cray. Sometimes they have 4 fingers
