and we could have an icon of maybe like two hands holding... to let us know that the mapper is going to hold our hand through the whole thing, instead of letting us figure it out for ourselves (after the initial introduction to a new concept) :-p

HIGH FIVE!!! SLAP HANDS! SLAP HANDS!

I'm lost on that third sign as well. Is that supposed to be a reference to rellikpd's comment about holding the player's hand? Is it supposed to be GLaDOS holding a test subject's hand?

hmmmm....

ok its not a life preserver being thrown to a hand.

so its a hook...

the kind of hook they use to capture wild animals.

i'd be careful with that hook.

Is there an equivalent to the french expression "Tendre la perche"?

Basically, this is just an expression to say "to help someone do something by giving him something" (for english speakers).
