loser sign
Thumb-finger mockery gesture
A loser sign is a hand gesture made by forming an L shape with the thumb and index finger and holding it against one's forehead, indicating that the person it's directed at—or sometimes oneself—is a loser.
The gesture became popular among children and teenagers in the 1990s as a taunt or playful insult.
