They make me laugh.

I was musing today about how ridiculous the notion of a "rude gesture" is... the thought that "the finger" is something routinely blurred out on tv (when the middle finger is depicted alone with its siblings at rest). Also remembered a number of other gestures that in different societies are "frowned" upon.

At any rate... any value?
Apparently, there is an existing board game of the same name.

In Greece: Open palm towards the face of someone (all five fingers spread out) is very offensive. Means "go to hell" or "to your face".

UK: The V-sign facing inwards, in a back-forth motion means "go fvck yourself" :D

UK: Thumb and index finger, joint tip to tip in a circle, moving left-right means "you wanker".

Germany: Saluting with your hand facing up (palm down) across your "fly" means "may your d*ck fall off"

etc.
