sorry for the bad quality, my phone is bad up close
I hit my pinky finger real bad while hammering a nail when I was a kid, it broke off some of the skin but when it grew back it kinda has a divit in it. Doesn’t hurt or cause issues in any way but it’s just kinda a interesting part about my body that’s unique and I probably wouldn’t fix if given the chance.
I’ve come to love these little inconstancies that shows that a body has been used for fun and living, scars with a story are really sweet.
My hands are cold, and my nails are a little blue most of time. What is more uncommon is that my thumbs are cold too.
My daughter gets Raynaud’s syndrome in her first two fingers on both hands. They will turn white and her nails will turn blue while her thumb, pinkie, and ring fingers are pink and warm. Been that way since she was tiny.
Are you on ADHD medication or do you consume an excessive amount of caffeine?
I don’t want to be rude, but I just share something about my body being not unique but uncommon, I don’t seek any help or diagnosis, I already have what I need.
I don’t think that was rude to begin with
My pinky fingers are curved sideways towards my rong fingers. They’re like little banana fingers. They also don’t bend easily. Despite that I’m still a pretty decent clarinet player, but I always play the mid c# on the left instead of the right so I don’t have yo bend my pinky.
This is my left ring finger. None of my other fingers bend like that. 🤷🏻♂️
My big toes give a thumbs up. They are the reason why most shoes won’t fit. That, and that my feet are short but wide.
Why does your foot look like a Monty Python illustration?
I don’t know, but thanks for the laugh
I can give thumb up too
I have a sizable birthmark on my back that grows thick hair (the surrounding skin does not).
Do you have a pilonidal cyst?
(I learned from last time I brought this up: if not, don’t Google it. It’s a gross body thing.)
From a quick google, no. The mark is halfway up my back. I have had this mark my whole life. It grew (even relative to my size) during childhood. It stopped growing when I did. I had it inspected multiple times. It is apparently benign. It started growing hair during puberty
I don’t mean to suggest that you do - I’m nowhere near knowledgeable enough to do so. However, from my inexpert knowledge, nothing you said contests the possibility.
Apparently a birthmark on your lumbar region can be indicative of a pilonidal cyst, not a problem itself. They’re genetic. The cyst happens (from my very limited knowledge based only on having experienced it) when your tailbone doesn’t close fully and hair on your buttcheeks grows across the gap, collecting in the resultant opening in your spine.
I hope you don’t have one! Mine was no fun to remove.
edit: I missed the first time reading your comment that you said it was halfway up your back. From my understanding that’s not common for the affliction I described. I apologize for making assumptions.
I did look up pictures, and I have experienced nothing like that. Thanks for the new fear, though! Cheers!
My unbelievably large penis
That is correct. It is unbelievable. /s
We want to believe but are prepared to accept adequate enough as the most likely and probable scenario.

I get it. Life is hard.
Prove it
Is there a Lemmy equivalent of /r/BigDickProblems ?
- I can produce rumbling sound inside my ears
- I have extra pair of teeth
Can do the rumbling sound too. Can also wiggle ears. I can also make the air smell funny.
Does the funny smell come… From your… ears?
I never got my wisdom teeth removed and everything fits fine. Do you have an extra set of teeth on top of that??
They didn’t come out yet, but yeah. I have 9th top tooths, not bottom tho. I did find out twice. I had xray but forgot about it after the first time.
I can do it to. Selectively by ear. This article seem to consider it highly unusual
but from the last time I saw this skill making the internet rounds, it’s not entirely unusual, as far as I can remember. It had comorbidity with easily being startled or something as well. If you are curious, a few minutes of search or AIing should have the correct information.
My left foot is UK size 8 and my right foot is UK size 9.
Do you buy 2 pairs of shoes each time?
No. I just get shoes of UK size 9.
Life has given me many scars, and there’s a story behind every single one. Often mountain bikes were involved
Like that one time we were drinking at friend’s place, and I fell and hit my hand on his bike’s brake disc 😅
When I was very young I stuck my index finger in fire, it burnt a chunk of it, so now I only have about half a fingerprint on that finger.
Being ugly. :)
My girlfriend doesnt think so but I do. Lol. If I got to pick a face from hundreds of faces, I would not pick the one I have.
Ok I guess its not that unique to not like your body… :p
Hey, my thumb’s like that but it’s cause I chopped a bit off with a machete.
On purpose?
Failed self-circumcision.
Nipped the wrong tip, eh?
I fell off my bike while riding to school and ended up scraping up both of knees. My right knee taking most of the damage, need stitches but I didn’t know any better, as well as, Usa healthcare being so expensive I didn’t bother going to the hospital. That wound open up so many times whenever I walk, I had to limp on left leg and drag my right leg to avoid opening the wound again. It took months but eventually it healed. Now, the scar is forever on my right knee and just a minor eyesore. It looks bruised and smooth than regular skin. Also, because of that fall, whenever I bend my right knee, I can see a slight protruding bone bump. Doesn’t hurt though.
My right pinky is severely bent at the topmost joint. It made learning the piano somewhat challenging, since the pinky sometimes “locks” itself if I try to extend my fingers too much. And if it does, I have to do a little wiggle movement to release it painlessly. If I try to force it, it makes a very loud snap and it hurts for a second.
Otherwise it has not affected my life in any way.
And I can make goose bumps / make my body hair rise up at will. It only lasts a few seconds every time, but it did make for a fun party trick when I was younger and a very hairy guy.
My left eye is like half the size of my right eye I guess.

The pinky finger on my right hand has 4 lines instead of 3. No extra joint so it folds normally, there’s just an extra line.
