Get the v tubermug. by SueDohNiim July 23, 2017
Get the I seed in your Vmug. Also called 'giving (it, them, someone) the v's.'
This is sticking up at someone or something as a gesture of defiance the index and middle finger, separated to form a 'v' shape, with the thumb and other two fingers folded in towards the body. It is usually executed with an upward thrusting movement or flick of the whole hand. Making the gesture with both hands at the same time adds emphasis and expresses stronger emotional vehemence.
It derives from the medieval wars between the English and the French. English archers were renowned for their use of the powerful and deadly longbow. If they were captured by the French their captors would cut off their index and middle finger before allowing them to be ransomed so that they would never again be able to draw the longbow against them. Hence displaying these two fingers signifies defiance as it means something like "I don't have to fear you because I have the capacity to use the longbow, therefore I can get you." Today, however, this origin is largely forgotten and it is more generally seen just as vulgar and insulting.

The yobs amused themselves by doing the v's at passing cars.
The boy was excluded from school for giving his class teacher the v's.
The row ended with Alan driving off angrily, leaving Caitlin to make her own way home. As a parting shot she did the v's at his retreating car.

Get the doing the v'smug. by Pseuxs October 9, 2020
Get the V Vmug. (verb) synonymous with reject -- to force an unwanted call to your voice mail. Typically used in the past tense, since the person having the action performed on him/her is unaware until the v-mailing occurs. While getting sent to vmail can occur for good reason i.e. person being called is in class/at work or talking with someone else, it tends to create feelings of woe regardless.
"Man, I stared at my phone for an hour wanting to call that girl, and when I finally pressed send, she fuckin' v-mailed my ass!"
"Dude, don't feel bad about v-mailing that punk. Now he's got a limited time to convince you to call his ass back."
"Dude, don't feel bad about v-mailing that punk. Now he's got a limited time to convince you to call his ass back."

Get the v-mailedmug. B-A-V is an acronym for bisexual asshole voyager. It is a male who has had sex with another male and now only engages in anal sex no matter if it is with a male or female. The phrase originates from the University of Michigan during the mid 00's when LGBT culture was gaining popularity.

Get the B-A-Vmug. Technoprude is already defined but this is a much more fitting definition. This pertains to advancements in technology and people from older generations who refuse to accept that technology does indeed advance and the companies behind it are not trying to screw the customer, like some might think.
Technoprude: One who refuses to use, accept and/or embrace new technology.

technoprude v.2
People who refuse to upgrade to Windows 7 because they think that XP is still good enough even though Microsoft stopped supporting it, are technoprudes.
When the local cable company gives you 100 free HD channels but you don't get them because you think that the cable company is trying to screw you by making you pay 5 extra bucks per month for a decoder box, you are a technopude.
You get mad because the local cable company is switching to all digital and you have to get a box in order to watch TV, you are a technoprude. Who uses analog anymore?
Your ISP triples the amount of bandwidth you get and you get pissed because you don't want to buy a new cable modem. You are a technoprude.
You continue to use your 11 year old computer because as long as you can still get your email you don't need to buy a new computer. You will probably call your ISP naughty names when they stop supporting your 11 year old computer because it still "works just fine" even though it takes 30 minutes to boot. Yea, you're a technoprude.
If you still have dial-up internet, you're a technoprude.
The list goes on forever.
