doing harakiri

the act of committing suicide ( using any method except the real harakiri, the actual Japanese ritual form of suicide by disembowelment often used historically by the samurai).
son: why are so many people nowadays doing harakiri?

father: Adrian, why people commit such an irrational act is probably because they've reached a point in their existence where they can't find life's meaning even in a religious setting. There's always secular hope, by getting a social worker or something. You can always pull the roasted chestnuts out of the fire no matter the dire situation. don't burn your bridges is the sole piece of advice I would give these people.

doing the v's

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.
