Giving Someone the Pointer Finger: Difference between revisions

 

 

'''Elaine:''' You get yours out, I was here first!|''[[Seinfeld]]'', "The Set-Up"}}

 

** Also, John does it to As'taris just after getting the Kansael. While jabbing his finger at the elf, he accidentally squirts him; and when he looks at his own finger, he squirts himself.

* [[Ace Attorney|Phoenix Wright]] in ''[[Turnabout Storm]]'', it's his signature gesture after all. This time it's more jarring than usual, given the general lack of any fingers to speak of on the inhabitants of [[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|Equestria]].

* All because of a ''typo'' in the original ''[[Tsukihime]]'' where normally benevolent [[Meido]] Hisui says "You are going to be the criminal" as a prediction instead of an accusation. This lead to a [[Memetic Mutation]] where a darker version of Hisui called the "Brainwasher Detective" would point at people and spin her finger to hypnotize them into being criminals so she could arrest them. This occasionally shows up in [[Mythology Gag|Mythology Gags]] such as her attacks in ''[[Melty Blood]]'' or ''[[Battle Moon Wars]]''.

* In the CD-i game, ''Hotel Mario'', Luigi does this near the end of the opening cutscene:

Luigi: "And YOO!" *[[Breaking the Fourth Wall|points in the general direction of the player]]* "Gotta help us!" }}

* ''[[Metal Gear Solid 4 Guns of the Patriots]]'''s Liquid Ocelot ''loves'' to do this. In fact, expect a dramatic gesture or pose every 50 seconds at the least in any scene he features in, 11 in the space of one scene. But then, Liquid Ocelot is a [[Large Ham]], who loves to [[Chew the Scenery]].
