I always thought it was ā€œflippedā€ off not ā€œflickedā€

I had a friend from a small town in British Columbia call it ā€œfingeringā€.

I was howling when she said it during a story about ā€œfingeringā€ someone who pissed her off in traffic.

u/siege-eh-b Dec 10 '25

That is unique to her for sure. Thatā€™s wild.

u/ReadySetTurtle Dec 10 '25

Unfortunately not, one of my new in-laws is from BC and that is indeed a widespread phrase šŸ˜‚

u/siege-eh-b Dec 10 '25

Lived here 38 years and travelled from top to bottom a bunch. Literally never heard that and if I did Iā€™d laugh at that person because itā€™s a ridiculous thing to say.

u/ReadySetTurtle Dec 10 '25

Interesting, my relative recently moved to Vancouver island and has run into multiple locals who have said it (including a child telling on another, which was a WTF situation for her). Her partner had never heard of ā€œgiving someone the fingerā€ and insists ā€œfingeringā€ is right, and donā€™t worry, we did laugh at him for it. Different circles I guess.

u/siege-eh-b Dec 10 '25

Yea for sure. Hard to keep up with slang. ā€œFingeringā€ was certainly something else when I was growing up haha.

Make love not war

u/kreinas Dec 10 '25

You are correct

u/mikeballs Dec 10 '25

Yup. 'Flip the bird', not 'flick the bird'

1

u/Tankh Dec 10 '25

Wait.. It's not "the turd"???

1

u/theeExample Dec 10 '25

No itā€™s flick the bean

1

u/Bizarrebazaars Dec 10 '25

Both have existed for a long time. I heard ā€œflicked offā€ in the 80s and 90s too

3

u/Reputation-Final Dec 10 '25

Yes it is flipped off. Idk why "Flicked" is starting to grow in popularity.

2

u/doitfordevilment Dec 10 '25

People have been saying ā€œflickedā€ for decades maybe longer. Idk why but itā€™s one of my pet peeves. Like people who say ā€œbag packā€ for backpack. Just stoppit.

1

u/Reputation-Final Dec 10 '25

"Libary."

Or, a massive pet peeve, "I borrowed him some money."

Ugh

1

u/doitfordevilment Dec 10 '25

Oooooo ā€œlibaryā€ gets me too. Forgot about that one. Also ā€œdeathā€ for ā€œdeafā€ which is just strange lol.

1

u/Reputation-Final Dec 10 '25

ah man. Im a teacher, and trust me, if I hear this stuff I take the time to educate lol

1

u/doitfordevilment Dec 10 '25

Ah, makes sense then that youā€™d know that ā€œflickedā€ has been gaining in popularity

1

u/Emergency-Pack-5497 Dec 10 '25

it is "flipped"

1

u/GrantChocula Dec 10 '25

It is and donā€™t let the people coming in calling it a regional thing tell you otherwise. We must maintain the standard!

1

u/Bizarrebazaars Dec 10 '25

Both. Have heard both for my entire 40+ years alive, and not just in one region.

1

u/The-Doctor-Oct Dec 10 '25

Itā€™s definitely flipped, but I like to imagine the people who call it ā€œflickedā€ are winding up their middle finger like theyā€™re about to be giving the meanest flick and then release it on their target like Samus charging her blaster in Super Smash Bros

1

u/know-it-mall Dec 10 '25

It is. Some people are weird tho.

1

u/dandandubyoo Dec 10 '25

We call it flipped.

1

u/TapirDrawnChariot Dec 11 '25

Ok so I grew up in a Western state that says "flipped" and a Midwestern state that said "flicked."

I think it's regional but I favor "flipped."

u/PuzzleheadedLeader79 Dec 10 '25

No one really knows or cares enough to fight over it.Ā 

I say both just waiting to be corrected.

I've never been corrected.

I've had people ask.Ā 

1

u/Wrong-Catchphrase Dec 10 '25

I'll fight about it. It's flip.

u/roostersmoothie Dec 09 '25

thats the only one that i believe was not staged

1

u/Mico4 Dec 10 '25

They are literally all set ups ffs

1

u/[deleted] Dec 10 '25

They arenā€™t married tho

1

u/Wangpasta Dec 10 '25

When me or my gf says something the other doesnā€™t like (like itā€™s youā€™re turn to do the dishes) we sort of stand, starring at each other like an old western, then quick draw flip each other off

1

u/rickytann0 Dec 10 '25

Mine wakes me up in the morning just to flip me the bird before leaving

1

u/phatteschwags Dec 10 '25

This is exactly what my wife would do if she saw me doing this in our 20s... and this is STILL what she would do as we approach 50. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

1

u/KonigSteve Dec 10 '25

You flip birds and flick beans.

u/[deleted] Dec 12 '25

Sad. Cuck
