The "V"

Or is it? I've gotten this response a couple times. The only things I know of that it represents are "victory" and "peace," but I don't feel either of those here. Is there some other meaning out there?

You got me curious, so I looked it up. A rude usage stemming from the middle ages and coming back into use by some people is the same thing as giving someone the finger. Apparently, you got flipped off. So much for civility. Oh, well, you got the shot and escaped unscathed, anyway.

Well, this explanation does fit the mood better.

Nice picture. Did you hang around for the live music?
Thanks, Guyserman. No, just didn't feel welcome.

Maybe he was just picking his nose. I don't know what he is selling, but now I think I would pass.

Yes. He's not in a welcoming mode.

Voss,
If I'm not mistaken, he's visually indicating he's going to "Snip" some part of your anatomy if you take another picture. (Just My Guess)
