The hand series: The downward point finger.

The downward pointing finger. It is an interesting gesture as it is able to change it's meaning depending on the context of the situation. An IQ of above 2 is required to be able to recognize and react to this gesture. This gesture is so complicated that I warn you, my readers, that this post could stress you out and worst still, if your family is viewing this post, please keep children below 8 years old in the toilet.

The gesture has about 4 meanings.

1) "Come here, at this spot."

When a person see the finger, they will move towards the spot where the finger is pointing at. This is the most basic meaning of the downwards pointing finger. Therefore, I would not explain this.


2) During spot check.

One will use this gesture to show the teacher that his fingernails are trimmed well and not long as, this gesture indicates confidence. When a person DOES NOT show this gesture, their fingernails are sure to be long.


3) I have only one something.

This is by far the most difficult to recognize. Sometimes this gesture indicates that one has only one of something as, if you turn his finger upside down, you will get a "1".


4) Trick.

They use this gesture to trick their victims by luring them to looking at an object below and calling them the object. (doesn't make sense, but that's not important)


Wahlau, so crappy.
