Good question I think it must have come from the Klan.

It simply means i am number one and you are not and i am in the center of it all!

waddaya think?

Boob said:

Good question Boob.

Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the French, anticipating victory over the English, proposed to cut off the middle finger of all captured English soldiers. Without the middle finger it would be impossible to draw the renowned English longbow and therefore soldiers would be incapable of fighting in the future. This famous weapon was made of the native English yew tree, and the act of drawing the longbow was known as "plucking the yew." Much to the bewilderment of the French, the English won a major upset and began mocking the French by waving their middle fingers at the defeated French, saying, "See, we can still pluck yew!"

Over the years some "folk etymologies" have grown up around this symbolic gesture. Since "pluck yew" is rather difficult to say, like "pheasant mother plucker," which is who you had to go to for the feathers used on the arrows for the longbow, the difficult consonant cluster at the beginning has gradually changed to a labiodental fricative "f," and thus the words often used in conjunction with the one-finger salute are mistakenly thought to have something to do with an intimate encounter. It is also because of the pheasant feathers on the arrows that the gesture is known as "giving the bird."

she does it to me too!!!

Goddamnit, I will personally design CarrieLee's new avatar if she'll let me! But she'll probably just flick me off...

Teller quit being a baby!

Maybe I'll change my avatar to the naked picture of Tommy that I have...

Nah, I changed my mind, I like this avatar too much.

Teller if I was flipping you off it would go something like this, ah hem: "Hey Teller, !!!"

LOL...yeah, but you're flicking ME off! My scary skeleton isn't attacking anyone in particular...

I know Carrie has forgotten about me as soon as she starts ignoring my posts...

gooeythehamster said:

Baby how could I ever forget YOU???

It's busy at work today!!!

CarrieLee said:

It sort of says "sit on this and rotate..."

eh...I didn't mean to pick on CarrieLee...I just think the finger should be used sparingly, on those who truly deserve it...and it certainly looks like I'm being flicked off everytime I view one of her posts.

Don't sweat it Teller. I think more people would be offended if it were Tommy blowing you guys a kiss!
