Index pointing at the viewer

A finger pointing straight out at the reader. 🫵 means "you," whether calling someone out, choosing them or blaming them.

🫵😂 is the go-to for laughing at someone. It also works like a recruitment poster ("I want 🫵 at the party") or for direct encouragement. It can feel pushy, so keep it to playful contexts.
