What is the significance of painting just one fingernail black?

Every so often I see someone who has painted just one nail on their hand black. Usually it's the ring finger but not always. Is there some kind of significance to this - you know, like how gay men used to put an earring in their right ear as a ';code';? Is it a ';goth'; thing? Or is it just people being stupid?What is the significance of painting just one fingernail black?

I don't know, it's kinda weird. Sometimes I paint my pinky nail pink but that's only because I want to paint my nails but I'm too lazy to do the rest.
It means that, they don't have any sense of style!
