Thanks to a former co-worker, I have learned a variation on a new gesture.
Start with your standard "loser" gesture -- index finger raised vertically, thumb pointing horizontally, raise hand to forehead.
Now extend your middle finger forward to create a third axis. You now have a "3D Loser", or, as I prefer, "Loser-cubed" (Loser3).
I'm feeling somewhat like a Loser3 at the moment. But it will pass.
