Middle Finger

~Actually began back in medieval times. French warriors would cut off the middle finger of British archers since this was the finger used to pull the string back on the bow. Archers who replaced them would stick their middle fingers up mocking the French showing them they got their finger and they're gonna launch an arrow through your head.

~In present day, a gesture meaning fuck you, also an easy way to end a conversation.

~Today the middle finger means "FUCK YOU!", but was actually invented in Golden-Age Athens 2500 years ago, not Medieval times. It originated from Ancient Greek comedy called The Clouds by Aristophanes. In this play, the actors mocked a politician by stating that his competitor had a longer dick. They showed this by running around with their middle finger pointing out from their dick area. It was meant to be stupid. It's meaning changed over time, but always was considered insulting.

HAHAHAHAHA!! I was bored and I began to wonder where "the finger" or "flipping off" came from. Urban Dictionary is my new dictionary. hahaha. All these results came from www.urbandictionary.com btw. xD
