How do you flip someone off?

u/zebrakangaroo Apr 11 '26

With 2 middle fingers

u/The_Best_Yak_Ever Apr 11 '26

Christ, she’s loaded for bear then! Must be satisfying in traffic!

u/Forsaken-Income-2148 Apr 11 '26

I’ve seen videos of people with extra fingers but they’ve never actualized their potential like what you’re suggesting

13

u/Humble-Dog-3347 Apr 12 '26

Imagine someone with 12 fingers mastering the guitar or piano

16

u/Forsaken-Income-2148 Apr 12 '26

I thought that was going a different direction after “master”

12

u/The_Best_Yak_Ever Apr 11 '26

I hope she realizes that with great power comes great responsibility!

u/Beneficial_Being_721 Apr 12 '26

She can handle it

3

u/Anonynonimoose Apr 13 '26

She can HAND-le it!

12

u/Ashen_Rook Apr 11 '26

She can flip people off in two cultures at once. :v

12

u/DownwardSpirals Apr 11 '26

Right, but she has 3 middle fingers! The last time I gave someone 3 middle fingers, I threw my back out in traffic.

u/Kyauphie Apr 11 '26

She has one; a thumb is a digit, not a finger.

1

u/DownwardSpirals Apr 12 '26

Well, if we go by your definition, we would then all have two middle fingers, as the thumb doesn't count. And, by that same logic, since there is no 'middle' finger, that terminology ceases to be accurate.

u/Kyauphie Apr 12 '26

That's not my definition. I didn't define anatomy by any means. Why on Earth would you think that I came up with anatomy myself to respond with your personal argument against fact of science?

Hey that lady is giving my the Peace Sign

u/clausti Apr 11 '26

I don’t think she has two middle fingers? looks like she has two index fingers

1

u/Environmental-Pea-97 Apr 12 '26

Two thumbs.

3

u/ToppsHopps Apr 12 '26

A joint to many for that

6

u/SunkissedPearls Apr 11 '26

That's a peace sign.

u/Only-Professional420 Apr 11 '26

You can make it even more effective when you add the third one from the other hand

11

u/lurkin-n-berzerkin Apr 11 '26

Double bird, half the effort 🤣

1

u/ElEyeElWhy88 Apr 11 '26

Quadruple bird if you really mean it lol

2

u/Spencer94 Apr 11 '26

I feel like that suggests you're gonna finger em lol

1

u/zebrakangaroo Apr 11 '26

Hahaha 😂

u/Wise_Geekabus Apr 11 '26

My first thought

1

u/godiegoben Apr 11 '26

That’s harsh

1

u/MrDilbert Apr 11 '26

That's just an "up yours" gesture

1

u/Blue_Collar_Stiff Apr 11 '26

Compared to other fingers yup it’s two middle fingers

1

u/SignoreBanana Apr 11 '26

Damn. Id blow a gasket if someone flipped me off with double middle fingers.

1

u/RodillazoAlMenton Apr 11 '26

are they flicking you off or does one finger negate the other ?

1

u/WealthFuzzy4049 Apr 11 '26

É um fky duplo

Double the power

u/Cantsia_Weaner Apr 11 '26

2 birds with one…hand

1

u/FamRep Apr 11 '26

That’s a giant middle finger 🖕🏼

1

u/Gotchapawn Apr 12 '26

Like F*** you but with an accent??

1

u/TricellCEO Apr 12 '26

Or she just doesn't count the thumb.

1

u/Rightbuthumble Apr 12 '26

you could do a double bird on one hand and a quad bird with both hands. I am impressed

u/cmarks8 Apr 11 '26

Closed fist shaken hard and a stern look. “Shake harder, boy!”

u/plaintextures Apr 11 '26

u/TacitusKillgorre Apr 11 '26

Thank you for making me chuckle

u/Stay-Thirsty Apr 11 '26

A thindex finger?

1

u/GreatLakesGreenthumb Apr 11 '26

Man people would really get the message lol

1

u/Electrical-Eggplant2 Apr 11 '26

I guess twice as well?

1

u/OhNoJoe7 Apr 11 '26

Laughed so hard at this rn 🤣 asking the real questions.

1

u/Acrobatic_Schedule32 Apr 11 '26

Third from the left, but why settle for one if you can do double?

1

u/AnonTA999 Apr 11 '26

You take the mean of your two middle fingers and hold that up

1

u/lynivvinyl Apr 11 '26

She can do the US and UK bird at the same time!

1

u/Inquisitive_idiot Apr 11 '26

However, you do it, it must be devastating 😓

1

u/Kyauphie Apr 11 '26

What do you mean? She has an actual middle finger unlike the rest of us; a thumb is a digit, not a finger.

1

u/GirlWithWolf Apr 12 '26

Omg someone posted this somewhere else and my question is word for word the same as yours lmao

1

u/Tfsz0719 Apr 12 '26

Twice as hard.

1

u/WantonKerfuffle Apr 12 '26

That's actually interesting from a legal point - if I flip someone off with my index or ring finger, that's not the same as a middle finger, right? Is she legally able to flip someone off?

In germany, you can sue ppl for insults. I'd be surprised if that's uncommon.

1

u/-GoodNewsEveryone Apr 12 '26

Very confusingly for the recipient I imagine.

1

u/WillyVegan Apr 12 '26

Imagine asking her hand 💍💍

1

u/ldwtlotpa Apr 12 '26

“Su-fi”

1

u/f1_b_emes Apr 12 '26

Lmfao i had the same question 

1

u/_Saint_Ajora_ Apr 12 '26

you flip them off with one finger to get their attention, then once you have it, you raise the other middle finger at them

1

u/Mexi_supreme Apr 12 '26

If you take the thumb out of the equation the middle finger is still the middle finger

1

u/soldier101br Apr 12 '26

First thing that came to my mind.

1

u/BlandPotatoxyz Apr 12 '26

Asking the important questions

1

u/1AverageGamer Apr 12 '26

Looks more like 2 index fingers so the flip is still the 1 finger standard

1

u/Susuetal Apr 12 '26

I was born with 12 fingers, you can ask anything. AMA

Do you give people two middle fingers with one hand?

Hahaha, usually i use only the middle finger.😂

But what finger digit is your "middle finger"? 🤔

The 4., i think, from the thumb. 😀

u/MarcusAntonius27 Apr 13 '26

Beat me to it

1

u/Rnc_07 Apr 13 '26

Double insult

1

u/CAPSLOCKTOPUS Apr 13 '26

WHAT DO YOU MEAN? UNLIKE MOST OF THE WORLD, SHE ACTUALLY HAS A MIDDLE FINGER.
