How does one get such tiny nails?

Genetic lottery is how I got mine

Years of nail biting

Edit: I mean also the genes for a different thumb shape that inherently has a shorter nail in the first place; but besides that, the nails that are even shorter than the others in this pic would be due to habitual nail biting

[-] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

Oh, that's weird. Their thimbs also look a bit shorter than usual...

My right pinkie-toe is like that, I think I stubbed my toe as a child or something

[-] [email protected] 26 points 7 months ago

I mean what use are nails for, at some point in the human evolution we wouldn't need nails at all

I'd like to add that.. I have stubbed my toe so hard twice now and they had to remove half of the nail Twice and from experience I say fuck them the creation of nails was a mistake existing only to make us further suffer on this cursed land

Humans evolved finger nails to separate Lego pieces

...I can't think of a good reason for toe nails though

[-] [email protected] 36 points 7 months ago

maybe also separating lego pieces

[-] [email protected] 7 points 7 months ago

Lego do not belong near feet. That shit is real damage.

then its only purpose is as a heat shield when holding a cup of tea.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 7 months ago

its only use is to protect our fingers when holding something with a lot of strength (it'll spread the force around your finger tips instead of it all going to one point

or at least i remember hearing something like that. im not actually sure though

[-] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

Like brass knuckles, but for your fingers.

My sister has one. Apparently she cut the top (?) of her thumb while playing around with a paper stapler.

Your fingers are fine

[-] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

But how did he take the picture?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Not with his thumbs that's for sure.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 7 months ago

I had a friend help me. My life is a constant battle of having thumbs that function perfectly fine.
