"Flipping the Bird", or "the Finger" as it is also known (among other names), is the act of raising one's middle finger upwards while keeping the rest of the fingers bent at the first joint or curled tight into the palm of the hand. For added expression, the participant should extend the arm to its full length and raise slightly above the shoulder line, perform this movement in one sharp movement to add complete indignation to the gesture. Its name comes from the way the hand forms the shape of an upward-turned bird, but its obscenity comes from the way it resembles a phallus. For added effect, one can Dual Wield the gesture in what is sometimes called the "Double Deuce". Alternatively, it can be further emphasized by simultaneously slapping the other hand into the bicep, against the elbow joint. To flip someone off is an insult in most of the Western World, and earliest references of it go all the way to Ancient Greek and Roman writings, where it is referred to as digitus impudicus (the "impudent digit"). Often directed to those in authority in an act of defiance, Flipping the Bird is an easy way to get across complicated emotions in one motion. Also used occasionally by people who are being photographed against their will, and want to ensure the resulting image won't be publishable. Frequently used toward another driver while at the wheel. A known British variation of the gesture is the "two-finger salute", where the index finger is also raised, otherwise known as "making a V-Sign". Distinguished from the (inoffensive) "victory"/"peace" sign by the palm facing inward, away from the target, much as it does for the single-finger equivalent. A popular but apocryphal story about the origin of this version of the gesture involves the 1415 Battle of Agincourt, where the French allegedly boasted they would cut off the bow-fingers of every English longbowman they captured. When the English soundly beat them, their archers supposedly held up their still-intact fingers at the French in defiance. Sometimes the story ends with them shouting "Pluck Yew!" as they did so, denoting what they could still do to their bows. Supposedly this became the familiar expletive now implied by the gesture.note This obviously isn't true for reasons of etymology — the F-word has clear relatives in other languages — and also because you can't "pluck yew". Yew was the type of wood the bows were made of. You pluck the bowstrings. A variety of other gestures are considered obscene in various cultures around the world. Notable gestures include "the fig",noteA clenched fist, but with the thumb sticking out between the index and middle fingers, signifying a clitoris, and meaning, well...you know... which is vulgar in France, Greece, and some Near East countries, the bras d'honneur or "arm of honor", noteBending and raising a forearm while resting the other hand in the crook of the bent elbow, essentially telling the targeted party exactly how deeply they can shove it. which is generally obscene where flipping the bird would be, and the "okay" gesture,note Or rather an identical gesture that actually means "asshole" which is offensive in Turkey, Spain, and some South American countries. Even in cartoons where characters have Four-Fingered Hands, it's still possible to flip the bird by singularly elevating the finger between the index and pinky fingers, which is still censored on local and regular cable television. In addition, the gesture will never be referred to by its actual name nor explictly described, often subject to the Narrative Profanity Filter; when implied to occur, it will be referred to as a non-descript "rude gesture". |

In Gold Digger, the universe's equivalent of Lara Croft accidentally unleashes a Sealed Evil in a Can, also getting the creature's mind in her head. To take it out, she gets down to its body, then gets it to look at her, thus forcing it to see itself through her eyes, and turning them both to stone. So she decides the last thing either of them will see is her flipping it off. | |

Hellblazer: In the second issue, John Constantine is flipped off by one of the ghosts of fallen acquaintances haunting him. John Constantine (who used to be pictured above) gives the finger to the First of the Fallen in the 45th issue during Garth Ennis' run. However, many issues later, the First managed to give the finger back at John. The 80th issue has a protestor give the bird to a cop and get killed for it. In issue 83, John's friend George Ridley flips John off for calling him the N-word while insisting that George not call him "whitey". Near the end of the "Another Season in Hell" arc in Peter Milligan's run, John defiantly gives the two-finger salute to the First of the Fallen. |

In Get Fuzzy, one storyline had an Antiques Roadshow-esque curator mistake Bucky's teddy bear, Smacky, for a rare Steiff teddy bear. When another curator later tells Bucky that Smacky is virtually worthless (on live TV), Bucky angrily responds "How about a birdie? I got a little birdie for you." as his paw is blurred. In the next strip, Rob's friend Joe wonders out loud how a cat with Four-Fingered Hands was able to give the Finger. | |

During Atop the Fourth Wall's Marville #5 review, the issue takes a potshot at scientists. Cut to Dr. Linksano doing this trope to the screen (and, presumably, the comic).

In episode 11 of Pokémon World Tour: United, between losing her Gym Battle with Kent, arguing with Roxy over her assumptions of her and Cobalt's relationship, and a sheer barrage of rock-based Puns, Rose is in a foul mood. So, it's no surprise when she eventually flips off the cameras broadcasting Cobalt's battle with Kent out of annoyance. What is surprising is when Scramble, her Togepi, sees the gesture, looks at the little flippers it has instead of hands, and cheerfully tries to imitate it. Kent remarks that, while he does not condone that act, it was pretty adorable. | |

Joueur du Grenier: Grenier's conclusion of his test for X-Perts is to give the finger to the makers of the game. And then, in a scene reminiscent of the early days of this web video series, he destroys the game cartridge by firing an energy beam from his raised middle finger. | |

In the Team Service Announcement Pop it, Don't Drop it, The Medic of Team Fortress 2 survives an ambush by the entire RED team, by using his Ubercharge just in time. How does he celebrate his survival? By flipping them off. With both hands. While wearing sunglasses. Surrounded by dancing Scouts and Heavies. While "Dreaming a Dream" by Captain Jack plays. This pose was later modded as a taunt to replace the "Meet the Medic" taunt. It got so popular that Valve actually increased the price of the MtM taunt because so many people were buying it to replace it. | |

"Stone Cold" Steve Austin's "Stone Cold Salute" in the WWE. As famous as any other gesture (Diamond Dallas Page's "BANG!", the New World Order's "4 life", the Wolfpac symbol, "Suck it!", etc.), Austin literally gets over with the audience by telling them to screw themselves on live television (and they happily do it back to him in support). | |

Batman vs. Two-Face has a scene where Robin is implied to flip off Batman while under the effects of the Evil Extract Formula and transformed into a Two-Faced being like Two-Face. We don't see the gesture because Batman's body obscures Robin's hand from view, but the raising of his arm and what he says when he makes the gesture gives a good hint. | |

At SHIMMER Volume 80, Cheerleader Melissa smiled and waved to the crowd while holding Candice LeRae in a kondo clutch, so more eyes would be looking when she flipped them off. Being more "family friendly" than most of the other shows running in Dallas that weekend, it was met with gasps and admonitions of "that's not nice". | |

Thin Blue Line: Near the start of the comic, at the gazebo where Mayor Myron Mulch is due to give his speech to the anti-cop protestors, a woman up there is shouting about free health care and illegal humans not existing. She's approached by a delegate of the mayor who calls her "Mizz Amherst-Kraby", which offends the woman ("Did you just call me Mizz?"). The delegate tries to apologize for using the wrong pronouns, only for Mizz Amherst-Kraby to stick up her middle finger at her and shout "Fuck off!" as she walks off the platform. | |

Animal Man: Buddy Baker, of all people, flips off a turkey at the end of his story in Vertigo Jam. The context is that he had a conversation with the turkey and was not amused by the turkey's sentiment that Humans Are Bastards and dismissing Buddy's vegetarianism as doing nothing to change that. A random background character flips off Buddy and his kids in issue 57. Issue 58 has a driver give Ellen Baker the finger while calling her a "tight-ass bitch". The Vertigo run's 1993 annual (a tie-in to The Children's Crusade (Vertigo)) has Buddy's son Cliff flip off the police with both hands. In issue 64, Cliff Baker gives his middle finger to the school principal as he and Maxine are pulled out of school by their mother. |

Starting in June 2019, Samoa Joe ambushed and attacked Kofi Kingston several times in order to set up a title match between them at Extreme Rules 2019. At one point, Joe promised to leave Kofi alone until the title match if Kofi would shake his hand. Instead, Kofi flipped him the bird and then knocked him out. | |

Zits: When Jeremy gets a cut on his middle finger, the nurse advises him to keep it elevated; she changes her mind when she starts hearing students proclaiming "Same to you, Duncan!" in the hallway. Jeremy decides to point out that Zuma (a member of the Posse) says all her sentences like questions. When Zuma gets offended, Jeremy claims he was just making an observation, causing Zuma (off-panel) to respond "Why don't you just observe this?" One strip has Jeremy's mom, Connie, offer to take a picture to celebrate another first day of school. And then... Another strip has Jeremy and Pierce meet someone from the robotics club. The club member tells them that his robot, which has a five-fingered hand, can toss frisbees and play the drums. Pierce was not amused by the latter, so he asks to bend all the fingers except the middle one. |

All over the place in Epic Rap Battles of History: Lady Gaga flips off Sarah Palin a split second before the battle begins. At the end of above battle, John McCain flips off the whole world. Master Chief gives a long one to Leonidas at the end of his rap. Barack Obama stealthily does this to Mitt Romney. While commenting on how it would be awkward to have a 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Lady, he counts off with his middle finger, pinky, and ring finger, in that order. Bruce Lee shows Clint Eastwood his two-finger push-up. "KUNG F-U!" Pablo Picasso can be seen painting this in the background during his battle with Bob Ross. Jack the Ripper performs the British variant at the end of his second verse. |

Vince McMahon does this a lot. He was idiotic enough to flip off The Undertaker and Kane once. They broke his leg. During a Steel Cage Match against SCSA, Austin nearly escaped twice. Vince flipped him off both times to enrage him into coming back. After being defeated by Shawn Michaels at WrestleMania 22, Vince was loaded onto a stretcher and wheeled away. Vince defiantly flipped Shawn off right before he disappeared. He did the same thing after losing to Hulk Hogan at WrestleMania 19. |

Homestar Runner: This is a bit of a Running Gag on the website, only done by characters without fingers. This is best showcased in the Strong Bad Email "the bird". Strong Bad is fond of giving people the two-handed "double deuce"... despite having boxing gloves for hands. Pom Pom likes the "single deuce". And then Homestar Runner manages to flip Strong Bad the bird without any arms. Unknowingly, at that! | |

When LeBron James played his first game back in Cleveland after signing with the Miami Heat in 2010 several newspapers ran an AP photo of James doing his old pre-game chalk toss routine.note Some NBA players like to cover their hands in powdered chalk to help grip the ball, James used to toss a big handful of it in the air to create an effect similar to Triple H's water spitting during his entrance. In the background of the photo were three Cavaliers fans in the audience giving LeBron the one finger salute. | |
