Talkupation: Spud In Disguise will become famous soon enough
More often than not it is a kinda rude way of addressing someone, or an intimidating gesture...

Conversationally it is an intimidating gesture, but in public speaking, though it can have the same meaning, it can be seen as made for emphasis. It also depends on which finger the speaker is extending.
