What 🤙 means
Thumb and pinky out. 🤙 means "call me" when held like a phone, or "hang loose" as the Hawaiian shaka sign.
Surfers, skaters and laid-back friends use it for "chill" or "all good." It can also confirm plans: "sounds good 🤙." In the phone sense it invites a call.
The shaka meaning comes from Hawaii, where it stands for a relaxed, friendly spirit.
