What ๐ means
The middle finger raised: an obscene insult that means "f*** you" or "screw this."
Close friends trade it as rough banter, and people aim it at things they hate, like Mondays or traffic. In any formal or work setting it is offensive. It can also show defiance toward a situation rather than a person.
