+163 Why is the middle finger the offensive one? Why can't it be the pinkie? amirite?

Because out of all our fingers, we need to choose one. If it was the pinkie, someone would be asking "Why does the pinkie finger need to be the offensive one, why not the middle finger? amirite?"

It's not retarded, it's logic.

I'm sorry i need to ruin your fun! in the middle ages in england villagers weren't allowed to hunt because then they'd make money etc, so if they were caught hunting they would have their middle finger cut off so that they couldn't hunt, people would then make fun of them by holding up their middle finger to show off that they still have theirs.

The pinkie is the polite index is to point something out. The thumb is to suck and help open stuff. Middle is to swear and in between pinkie and midle is the ring finger for rings.
