Middle finger posers

    What's up with these people who put up at least one middle finger (usually both) in nearly every photo taken of them ?? Any album I go through on facebook or whatever from a night out or a session, theres always some wannabe constantly doing this, f***ing ruining the photo and being a complete tard.

    I honestly feel like throwing a handful of my own ****e at them. :rolleyes:

    A picture from the "dirty stuff you've seen in night clubs" thread comes to mind

    I don't see how it's ruining the photo really, unless it's at a wedding or some such. Never do it myself but honestly doesn't bother me at all when others do.

    You should check out the ranting and raving forum OP


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,705 ✭✭✭Johro


    Posers generally piss me off. Middle finger or no middle finger.


  • Registered Users Posts: 653 ✭✭✭girl in the striped socks


    The sucked in cheeks & lips like a fish...fcuk offfffff!!!!!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,879 ✭✭✭Coriolanus


    Could be worse op. Some people have to watch their loved ones die a painful, prolonged miserable death. Bit of perspective, eh?

    Ah you know the ones I'm on about ... won't crack a smile, but will try pull their best intimidating hard man face, even though they're attention seeking gimps.

    Maybe if you were at least pulling a smile, instead of pretending you're posing with members of N.W.A

    Worst is the fools who through gang signs, W, west siiiiide.

    Yeah, I bet you there's gangsters in L.A. quivering at the prospect of you, a 20 year old with a can of dutch gold in rural Galway. :rolleyes:

    And remember to tilt your head down and look up, makes your eyes look HUGE.

    I'm speaking in general. Fortunately I don't have friends like that.

    Shoulders back, tits out & your arm around another cretin pulling the same face that you normally would cross the road to avoid but in that photo you're like BFFS totes amaze balls, like seriously.

    To be fair I don't think I know anyone who does either of these things in an attempt to look hard, anyone I know who does it is taking the piss.

    That they do unfortuantely ....

    Are you trying to cure me of my narrow - mindedness for posting a thread ? :confused:


  • Registered Users Posts: 8,207 ✭✭✭The King of Moo


    Are these people sticking up their finger in the rude way?
    Do lots of people do this? Why? It's just nasty.

    I really am completely out of touch.

    Don't worry about it. Anyone can gatecrash any thread with 'yeah but a child dies every four seconds' , the world's a cruel place but it doesn't really relate.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 789 ✭✭✭The Internet Explorer


    In my humble opinion, I think it's more of a "F*** off with your ****ing camera already"

    Or in my case "**** you mother****er ! My picture is my property, I do not want my picture taken. If you insist on capturing MY image in time, without my consent, you will do so on my terms.

    Sorry Leeg17.

    When a famous person does it, it's bound to be picked eventually by normal people. Rappers like Eminem used to pose for pictures by sticking their middle fingers up, because apparently it looked badass. I'm guessing it caught on with people and they just imitated them. Just like rock/heavy metal stars doing the devil horns, rock and metal fans also do it as well.

  • Registered Users Posts: 1,903 ✭✭✭Napper Hawkins


    Ah photos and the spas who need to record every moment of their otherwise dull and dreary existence..

    Not for me though, as roughly 95% of photos I get roped into feature my good self pulling a face like I've just smelt a fart that was dealt a moment or two before the photo was taken.

    Yeah.

    What was the question?

    My brother nearly killed his best man for giving the finger in his wedding photo.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,533 ✭✭✭Jester252


    I FN hate it but
    Why is that middle finger offence?
    I hate when I see somebody in a photo give the middle finger "gangster" style
