Today I thinking about how common giving the finger has become. I swear I remember how much I did it when I was younger and how no-one ever acted crazy about it. In fact today I saw people flippin each other off in traffic like 2 or 3 times today. But anyways a couple weeks ago I had a confrontation all over me giving someone the finger and this other person steps in trying to give me a whole bunch of lip over it. I guess I'm too laid back about the finger as I received it and given it yet I've thought nothing of it.
Do you guys ever go nuts over someone giving you the finger?
No it would be a waste of time and energy.
Me & one of my best buds used to sohw the finger rather than wave, till our mothers bitched us out about it :S
it doest really mean anything..ive never gone angry over it
who gives a f*ck...i'd much rather swear then use a gesture

What happened exactly? Me and my friends use it as a gruff goodbye and wave, so no I don't go nuts over it, just fly it back.
I used it a few weeks ago to this guy that drove by in his truck, i can't remember why. He turned around and shouted at me as i walked away with my GF. She was upset that i used it, but all that resulted was us walking away, and him wasting his time. I only get nonplussed when little middle school kids flip me off because they think they're cool. I sometimes think of just beating up little kids so they learn respect...meh.

I honestly concur on that last half.

Yeah but little kids won't learn respect unless you put them in a hospital and even than I have to wonder.

Sad but true
Well the situation I had with the shooting of the finger was over a sub-manager firing me for no reason and his female cronie being the one to get smart with me. So I left the store and she walks over to a wall lights up a cig while chatting to one of her friends. I went to my car while at the same time I shot one finger at her. (not two need mind you.)
Anyways I wait two weeks come to pick my check for 3 days of work and what happens? The sub-manager stares me down from 15 feet away and I stare back as I have nothing to fear. I walked towards the door and then he comes to me in this bitchy voice "why did you give her the middle finger? she's a female." then he starts getting all red faced and he looks like he is going to have a heart attack and then in a even higher pitched voice says "leave now." :p But the fact is: "I didn't give him the finger and honestly it's none of his business". I swear I thought these people were adults that could handle a little finger.

If he had got in my face over that BS, I would have knocked his ass out. It was none of his business and WTF does it matter if she was a chick? If they are being, ahem, the ?C? word, then they deserve to have someone let them know about (as long as you don?t touch them
). But at the very least I would have flipped him off and said "Give me my F'ing check you old Be-artch!"
To be honest I wanted some type of assault + battery so I could sue and at-least get some extra cash. lol
