Me, either.   When would this even happen?  

 

And when would it happen frequently enough to notice that people do it differently?

I was an avid DE, Sr. fan and even had his #3 with wings tattooed on my ankle when he died.

 

I have a huge collection of his diecast cars, leather jackets and other memorabilia.

 

Sorry, TMI I'm sure, LOL!

I do A ........unless I'm behind a driver doing 35 mph in the passing lane on the interstate, in which case I choose to use the middle finger only!

 

I've never seen option B used before.

Didn't you ever got to the ballgame and the vendor asks "HOW MANY DO YOU WANT LADY?"  And you raise your hand to show how many???  LOL!!!

 

This has been fun and interesting.  I am thinking maybe the German influence is in Oklahoma and Texas area because so many people in northern Ok and parts of Texas were German settlers coming here.  Maybe?  You think???

Either 'A' or the 'thumb-two-three'.   I picked that one up when I lived in Europe eons ago.  It's - thumb, forefinger, and middle finger (inside of hand faces yourself).  Smiley Happy
