Italian Victory Salute

Verb. To dramatically lift the middle finger while refraining from lifting the index, middle, ring, thumb, or pinky fingers. This is also commonly known as 'Flipping Off', 'Giving the bird', 'Flashing Your Sign', or 'Giving the finger'. First introduced by the French longbowmen in the middle ages. It was known that longbowmen needed their middle finegr to fire arrows at the enemy. Essentially, they 'Flipped Off' their enemy, a derisive way of proving that they can still kill them. It still works today even! It is, in a rounabout way, a simple way of saying 'Fuck You, I can still kill you.' Of course, it is not called the 'French Victory Salute' for the same fact that the French have no victory songs, and their victory flag is a white picture on a white background with a white border.

salute

A picture you take of yourself to verify your identity on the Internet. To make a salute, you take a picture of yourself holding up a sign of some sort that says your user name or e-mail address, depending on the sort of site it is. For instance, on LiveJournal your sign would say your user name, and for MySpace your sign would say your e-mail address. The salute is more or less only used for sites where you post pictures of yourself and is in existence due to the fact that there are so many people who steal other peoples' photos and claim to be that person, and when you have another picture of yourself being the person that is in the photos clearly holding up a sign saying the user name you are under, it is indisputable that you are the person in the photos you have posted.

"In order to verify your identity, please send us a "salute". This means we will need an image of yourself holding a handwritten sign with the word "MySpace.com" and your Friend ID (your Friend ID number appears immediately after "friendID=" in the web address/URL when viewing your profile). We can then remove the profile that uses your identity without your permission."

1-man salute

To FART briskly yet gracefully
To Squeeze gas through the buttocks like the pursing lips on a French Horn

I couldn't hold it in, so I gave the ol' 1-man salute.

alaskan salute

Mostly used by the homeless that reside in the state of alaska. The salute is issued to anyone who might have spare change or money. The way to excute the salute properly would be to approach the superior, issue a verbal greeting, followed by the extension of your hand palm up around midwaste. The verbal greeting is to always follow this format: "excuse me sir or ma'am, bull shit lie, request for currency"

The bull shit lie seems to follow the path of "my car ran out of gas and I am trying to get home to my kids can I borrow a few bucks to get home?"

Damn man just tried to hit me up for spare change... if he would have used the alaskan salute properly he would have had better luck......
