How about the British way, one hand and two fingers? (Back of hand facing outward)

And I believe the emotion can be increased if the hand makes a gesture sweeping upwwards.

In Greek it's a moudza--the worst curse on someone that there is. I use it on trump every time I hear his name or see his face.

I had to look this one up and once done, I decided I am going to practice using it. I'm in NC KS, and the middle finger salute is about as bad as it gets, so I'm thinking we need to spice it up alittle. ;)

I admit I use it all the time because Ammurrikans don't understand what I'm saying.

All a person would have to do to avoid copyright issues is cut off one of their fingers, then they would have a brand new red original artwork.

AS AN ADDED SALUTE

Index Finger Tapping On Temple -- as done in Germany.

This saluting gesture means “YOU ARE CRAZY.”

It’s often accompanied by a serious facial expression, so as to more clearly communicate that you and your opinion are not worth further discussion.

I would give him the Peace Sign and say like we used to in High School, "This is Peace and here is your half!" while lowering my index finger, leaving the middle finger standing tall and proudly defiant.

Ralph's avatar

Katherine - Oh those high school days were so defiant.

IF I would have received one of your peace sign salutes when returning from the US Army after military service in 1970, would have attributed it to immaturity.

Expand full comment
Katherine James's avatar

Thanks for your service, Ralph. And I was filled with immaturity as were many of us. Reading the Dolores Kearns Godwin book right now about her husband Dick's memories. At the point of Johnson and Viet Nam which is really fascinating.

To make it even more of a retread copy by Team Trump, Ruth’s book Strongmen said Hitler stole it from Mussolini.

Glenn Reynolds's avatar

She invokes the Roman salute also as a Hitler thing but they had that whole Christian in the coliseum thing. Not a love of God moment either!

Instead of the classic middle finger, I propose the classic drop-trous-moon.

It's more of you than they deserve, Michael Richmond, and I wouldn't feel safe turning my back on any of them. Be careful with that one.
