Happy Thumb Appreciation Day

[Andy]

Today (Feb 18 ) is National Thumb Appreciation Day. Appreciate your thumbs! Where would you be without your thumbs? Probably not playing videogames.

Take care of your thumbs, or you might get Gamers Thumb.

"Gamer's Thumb" is a very real condition that can have long-term effects on the hands and upper arms if the proper precautions are not taken. "Gamer's Thumb" is a repetitive stress injury (RSI) that causes swelling at the base of the thumb due to overuse of video games and hand-held devices."

I think I have gamers thumb from rocket league on my left hand. Mind is willing, but body is spongy and weak.

It's ok, I'll workout the rest of my hands to match the size of my thumbs

I've always said if i was going to lose a limb i'd rather it be a leg instead of an arm. Happy thumb day everyone!

You're thumb-phobic? Your parents were raped/killed in front of you by thumbs, causing you to go on a bloody quest of revenge, only to realize that the evil was within, and you've been betrayed by toes?

Why's that? Are your thumbs out of order?

Your thumbs aren't like Shakira's honest hips, and they keep telling you lies?

No thumb appreciation thread is complete without Steve Oedekerk's classic "Thumb Wars"

Hmm.. I'm guessing you work in data entry? Or in childcare?

Have you seen the movie 11:14 with Patrick Swayze? A lad gets his Johnson chopped off by a car window slamming shut.

Can you still use controller joysticks fine? I think id hate that... But you can use a mouse/kb I guess.

That sucks. I would be so depressed if anything like that ever happened to me. I like my limbs, thumbs, and stuff. I've heard of people who purposely cut off limbs because they feel like that's how they're supposed to be. Like, what in the actual f*** is wrong with you?
