Odd, William, how people can consider almost "pornographic" nudity in some of the shots in here as "acceptable" and term it "art"...but, show someone's middle finger and all of a sudden, it's "a slippery slope" that could be sliding DPC downwards???

I'm sorry that you didn't get the idea that it wasn't a "comment" or "statement" but rather a joke! A "gutsy" one at that but, all the same...a joke! Perhaps, had you looked upon it in that manner, it wouldn't have appeared as "vulgarity" to you.

Sorry, I refuse to mark your comment as "helpful" because it wasn't aimed at being helpful to my photo. Rather it was aimed at making a statement period to others of your distaste.

Earl was very tired after a long week of tending horses so on Saturday he decided to pamper himself. While driving home, Earl stuck his hand out the window to admire his first-ever manicure! As he was looking, he noticed something odd on one of his nails. Horrors! A hangnail! While Earl was focused on getting a closer inspection, he inadvertantly drove over to the wrong side of the street, up over a curb, and plowed thru some yards and into a pool. Poor Earl never saw it coming.

heh - you be crazy lady!

Gets a 1 for being vulgar, but a 7 for the capture and for knowing it was not meant for me.

I don't find the subject that great - The mans hand looks a little awkward.

How clever - did u think about it all by yourself or did u get help?
  Photographer found comment helpful.

I don't know. It could be funny, but it's definitely not clever. I'm tempted to vote high; unfortunately, the photo is too weak, even as a piss-take.

I would advise a more elaborate fingering of the 'man' in future.

Though, if that really is a random guy in a car giving you the finger then the funny part is a little closer.
