    Do you say flicking someone off or flipping someone off?

    I say flicking. I've asked people this before and it seems like half of the population of the world says flick and the other half says flip.

    It is about 50-50. The ones that are wrong say "flicking."

    I agree with you there. Pop is simply a ridiculous thing to call your soda. People who say that deserved to be flicked off...

    those above the mason dixon line call it "pop", as in soda pop.

    as far as the middle finger, flicking the middle finger is ridicoulous. Why not just say extending your true feelings to those whom you disrespect? As far as sounds, flipping off sounds more acceptable to me. Flicking just sounds like a generic ifyouseekay.

    Its technically Soda Pop. So either abbreviation is fine.



    And its flip, not flick. Flick makes no sense.

    Dude, I have NEVER heard anyone say 'flicking' someone off.

    That just sounds ...wrong.

    How can you 'flick' someone off?

    Do you like walk up to them and flick'em in the ear or something?:lol:

    It's been said already. To reaffirm:

    You flip people off.

    You flick boogers or you flick people in the ears (ouch! That happened to me a lot in school--at least until I punched that one guy in the jaw for it in 10th grade--stopped after that)

    Are you popping off again? Better be careful before someone pops you in the mouth. (LOL...j/k you know)

    I'll have a gin and soda. Gin and pop? Nope.

    No one says pop in reference to soda unless you are 60+ years old.
    You want a soda?

    And, actually, most people refer to the actual drink. People will ask you if you want a Coke sometimes when they actually mean soda.

    I sit on the couch with my feet propped up on the table (until my wife yells at me). However, if I'm going to someone's home where everything is really nice, I'll sit on a sofa and try not to get it dirty.

    Or from the mid-west. my ex and I used to have discussions bout this all the time. everyone I know says soda. she says pop. now our daughter get's in on it, she asks for soda and it sends my ex through the roof!:lol:

    anyway; it's drinking soda while flipping off the idiot next door who is flicking boogers... :shifty:
