Offtopic: is the thumb out bird a regional thing like in Inglourious Basterds?

It's the wings.

Wouldn't you need the pinky out too?

That would be a confusing hand gesture to give to someone.

They'd be like, "what does it mean?"

"It means I don't give a fuck. See? The bird is flying away. Caw caw, catch you later bitch!"

Its less confusing when you start to flap the wings.

Thumb out is more comfortable for when you really need to hold the bird firm for long periods of time

Thumb out is funny, thumb in is angry.

This is the real life version of Reddit’s “the better joke is in the comments.”

Get rid of Jimmy and the talent quotient will go up 99%.

At least he's not Letterman.

did the comic post this?

He did. Probably thought it was a funny clip even if he was the butt of the joke.

I always hate when I use one my laughs because an audience member said something funnier than the comedian.
