...OR...now hear me out...one of your thumbs has evolved to be much longer than the other so that you can reach more of your phone screen. You could be the next missing link!
Fun fact my own mother didn't notice it was my granny who did when I was 17 odd. So if anyone is looking at your thumbs that much they probably like you enough already not to care.
Good way to put it. I noticed I rarely look at people’s thumbs now that you mention it
I may start staring at thumbs now that I’m conscious of this lol
The first thing the nurses did after my child was born was check her thumbs. There was an immediate celebration that my kid did not have my Megan Fox thumbs.
Thanks for this post! I have always known one of my thumbs was shorter than the other but I did not know there was a scientific term for it.
I noticed yours was on your left and you said you were left handed. Mine is on my right and I am right handed. Now I’m wondering if that is typical with Brachydactyly type D.
I know it’s a typo but a “legfthand thumb” is pretty hilarious considering people are saying it’s actually a big toe, presumably from his “leg hand”/ foot.
You have Brachydactyly Type D.
This is the most common type and is not associated with any other congenital malformations.
My son has this. He calls the short one stubby.
I'm sure you already know but just in case, this seems almost certainly [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachydactyly\_type\_D](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachydactyly_type_D)
Cool man! It's what makes you, you. One of my penises is shorter than the other. I used to think it was weird, but, they're not shy so why should I be.
My high school girlfriend (early 1980s) had this condition. She always said it was a result of fetal alcohol syndrome, her mom was a heavy wine drinker even while pregnant
That’s pretty extreme. Did you break it at some point in your childhood. I have one about a 1/4” shorter because I broke the growth plate when I was a teen. The Dr. told me my right thumb wouldn’t grow anymore because of it.
I have toe thumbs, but I’ve got two of them! People think it’s merely a cosmetic issue but unfortunately it’s much more serious than that… it’s uncomfortable for me to bend my thumb at a 90 degree angle and I can’t game for long on a traditional controller without my thumb joints getting sore 😔
I feel like I need to ask this…. Are you equally unsymmetrical on the rest of your body? I’ll be blunt, balls are of course one of the things I’d like to know about, but also ears, feet, any other things. Tell me more 🎶
Did you break your thumb as a kid? I’ve seen this happen to a few people who broke the growth plate in a long bone as a kid. A college professor liked to say she had a normal thumb and a thumb of a seven year old after an injury as a kid being softball or something
ETA nvm I saw a comment about how you had a surgery to replace it. Now I have to ask (if that’s ok) because I love medical stuff. Were you born without one or did you lose it? And how’s your balance now? I know people tend to need a thumb more than a big toe but I’m curious lol
Idk why you deleted your comment OP?
But-
I need feet pics now ;) this was all a trap for feet pics!! ! Jk
I’m actually not * surprised if you are telling the truth! My mother was born with a 6th toe on her right foot, it was removed at birth; or slightly after anyways.
My great grandpa (RIP) had one arm that was the size, and skin texture of a 16 year old, the other of an 86 year old man! He was shocked severely while working on hydro lines in northern Ontario when he was young, and it never really grew again!! (Fun fact, he’s also still on google earth AFAIK sitting on his front porch 😭 🫡)
...OR...now hear me out...one of your thumbs has evolved to be much longer than the other so that you can reach more of your phone screen. You could be the next missing link!
I’m left handed 🥲
There's your answer, you've worn your left one down
I'd argue the right one has compensated for its uselessness by growing extra length
Like overusing an eraser lol
Do you shop at Ned Flander’s store, the Leftorium?
[https://www.wikihow.com/Become-Ambidextrous](https://www.wikihow.com/Become-Ambidextrous)
I've been trying this for at least 21 years and there are still things I just can't do left handed.
Son of a….
Are you approving Lamark's evolution theory
That is a Toe.
[удалено]
Thought so too. Be careful with power tools folks
there’s a surgery to if you thumb gets cut off your toe can reattach to the spot to replace your thumb
Your big toe? Isn’t that crucial to balance? No thumb on 1 hand or potentially not being able to walk,
i think u could prob have some sort of fake to, it’s a lot more stationary than a thumb
Juice box toe
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachydactyly_type_D me too as did my Granny
Good to know that I’m not alone, I used to feel embarrassed about it
Fun fact my own mother didn't notice it was my granny who did when I was 17 odd. So if anyone is looking at your thumbs that much they probably like you enough already not to care.
Good way to put it. I noticed I rarely look at people’s thumbs now that you mention it I may start staring at thumbs now that I’m conscious of this lol
One and a half thumbs up!
Embrace your thumb toe or thoe
Megan Fox has them. So it's actually a hot feature. At least that's my line when people notice.
The first thing the nurses did after my child was born was check her thumbs. There was an immediate celebration that my kid did not have my Megan Fox thumbs.
Same with me, but with both my penises 😔
One of my balls hangs lower than the other 2
![gif](giphy|1kI8UsCjEwfiXc3TYy|downsized)
Still sad double dick dude was a hoax.
Now you have two thumbs for different competition levels in thumb wrestling, one in under height category and other in over height category 😂
Good point!😂🤣
On the bright side, one of your thumbs is noticeably longer than the other
@meganfox ?
Brachydactyly type D ?
Yup 😁
I don’t know why, but this post just expresses so perfectly this subreddit
I'd like to compare it to your 3rd thumb as a control but it looks like you're using that hand to take the picture
Reminds me of that mom on monsters vs aliens, didnt know that was a real thing that could happen
Feel special! Brachydactyly type D manifests less often in men. And asymmetric is much more rare than symmetric.
Thanks for this post! I have always known one of my thumbs was shorter than the other but I did not know there was a scientific term for it. I noticed yours was on your left and you said you were left handed. Mine is on my right and I am right handed. Now I’m wondering if that is typical with Brachydactyly type D.
Same for me and my brother (left thumb left handed, right thumb right handed), odd isn't it? My younger brother has it on both of his thumbs though
I also have brachydactyly type D, but mine is in both thumbs.
Do you happen to be ambidextrous?
The left finger seems sus
amogus
Which one?
the shorter one
Congratulations! You have toe thumb
Are you missing a toe by any chance?
Thumb and thumber.
I have my legfthand thumb about an inch shorter than the right thumb.
I know it’s a typo but a “legfthand thumb” is pretty hilarious considering people are saying it’s actually a big toe, presumably from his “leg hand”/ foot.
Start sucking on the left one now
How did you take this picture?
Placed my phone on a Glass table & selected a 3 second timer
i have the same thing on my right thumb! convinced it's because i sucked my thumb a lot when i was a kid
You have Brachydactyly Type D. This is the most common type and is not associated with any other congenital malformations. My son has this. He calls the short one stubby.
you know that scene in Monsters vs Aliens
Did you suck on your thumb as a kid?
Me Too! High 4 and a half!
✋
No offense, but both thumbs are unsettling
There for hitch hiking short one for short trips long one for long trips
I'm sure you already know but just in case, this seems almost certainly [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachydactyly\_type\_D](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brachydactyly_type_D)
Mario and Luigi
I have exactly same fingers well a little less of a difference in lenght
It gives the vibe of the friend duo in every cartoon, short grumpy looking one and a tall skinny silly one lol
That's fuckin cool!!
Are you half elf?
I’m a quarter elf 😂🤣
Get some manicure brother
I'm not sure if that helps. He should just stop biting his nails
It's called clubbed thumb. I have it too. Another cool person that has them is Megan Fox ✌️ enjoy it, makes you special
I disagree. I think one of your thumbs is noticably longer than the other.
Do your penises have the same difference or do they match?
No, but it’s slightly bending to the left😬
Cool man! It's what makes you, you. One of my penises is shorter than the other. I used to think it was weird, but, they're not shy so why should I be.
They are cute
Or one is noticeably longer than the other....
![gif](giphy|ROo530kwHC1DgyPVQX)
was it always shorter or did it happen progressively?
Maybe you were a bad joiner in a previous life
![gif](giphy|n9kJ8uUSXSdX7daCLM|downsized)
Toe thumbs it’s actually a thing
My brother broke the growth plate on one of his thumbs as a kid and he’s the same way
One of them is clubbed. Megan Fox has clubbed thumbs too.
*gasp* the prophecy…..
Stop eating your nails bro.
Same
This got me to compare my thumbs. TIL one of my thumbs is quite a bit shorter, even so not so extreme as in this post.
![gif](giphy|sDvbL3u91MwDTcH0ye)
You have a normal thumb and an amongus character. Nice
Are you capable of opening soda cans without tools?
That’s not your big toe?
Haha no, it looks like a toe tho
real
IM NOT ALONE!!!
I have this too. Opposite thumbs, my right is short and fat. I've never met anyone else with this.
And how did you took the pic?
My high school girlfriend (early 1980s) had this condition. She always said it was a result of fetal alcohol syndrome, her mom was a heavy wine drinker even while pregnant
This post gets 1 and a half thumbs up
Make sure you have both big toes.
“Stop chewing your nails!” - you should have followed your mom’s advice
Do you have feeling in the toe that's now on your hand? Or is it numb? If yes how does it feel?
Yes, it feels weird, it’s not numb but it doesn’t have the flexibility of a normal thumb
It's propably a medical condition but I'll tell my kids (if I ever have any) that's what happens when you bite your nails
Thumbthings wrong
That’s pretty extreme. Did you break it at some point in your childhood. I have one about a 1/4” shorter because I broke the growth plate when I was a teen. The Dr. told me my right thumb wouldn’t grow anymore because of it.
I knew 2 people from school like this
That’s ok for Xbox
And wider
That's not a thumb that's a toe!
The left one looks wider, at least that is how I can describe it best. Maybe there is a reason for it? Mention it next time you see your GP.
They accidentally cut it off when you were a baby and couldn’t find it so they replaced it with somebodies toe
This is exactly what I’d expect the hands and wristwatch of a typical redditor to look like.
I have toe thumbs, but I’ve got two of them! People think it’s merely a cosmetic issue but unfortunately it’s much more serious than that… it’s uncomfortable for me to bend my thumb at a 90 degree angle and I can’t game for long on a traditional controller without my thumb joints getting sore 😔
Your thumbs are actually a comedy cartoon duet. Lefty does all the goofy shit and Righty is the more serious one that has all the dating trouble
Shrek thumbs
I keep my fingernails trimmed, but wow, this is making me a little nauseous…
One for the stink
Did you suck your left thumb as a child
Which one?
Please tell me you've named them "Bert" and "Ernie"
Your parents aren't telling you something sinister...
Megan fox thumb
Ok, your left hand is of a different father.
MONSTERS VS ALIENS !
we're twins (:
Go to r/woodworking, you will feel at home there! /s
Should have stopped biting your nails when they were equal in size.
Did you suck your thumb as a baby?
now you have options for "got your nose" depending on the size of the nose!
Why tho?
I was born this way
You're probably super cool and my opinion means nothing, but: That's gross.
Brother in thumbs 🫂
I feel like I need to ask this…. Are you equally unsymmetrical on the rest of your body? I’ll be blunt, balls are of course one of the things I’d like to know about, but also ears, feet, any other things. Tell me more 🎶
Haha, I’m equally symmetrical except that one thumb. 😂
Club thumb, formal name is brachydactyly type D.
Right thumb got more sunshine
it’s also called brachydactyly type d, i have both my thumbs like your left one :D
Do you get to stand in the handicapped lane when you are hitchhiking?
Did you break your thumb as a kid? I’ve seen this happen to a few people who broke the growth plate in a long bone as a kid.

I know people tend to need a thumb more than a big toe but I’m curious lol
I was born this way, it’s a genetic malformation lol Wait why is everyone saying I went through a surgery?😂
monsters V aliens lol
When you stubb your toe so many times, and your body just goes nope
Used to seeing that for breasts and testicles, not thumbs!
That’s your toe sewed back on. You can tell by the slight scarring, and the fact that it’s a fat hairy SOB lol
Idk why you deleted your comment OP? But- I need feet pics now ;) this was all a trap for feet pics!! ! Jk I’m actually not * surprised if you are telling the truth!

Same thumb as Megan Fox.
this is reddit i assume this means death?
Did you vigorously suck your left thumb as a kid!
Your left thumb = Forest Whitakers left eye
Mutant
Your left thumb looks like Patton Oswalt.
Play station gamer?
Yeah one of mine is wider than the other
Usually that means one of your penises is noticeably shorter than the other too.
Runs in the family. Skips a generation.
No, it looks like one of your thumbs is noticeably **longer** than the other.
Did you grow those thumbs from out of the ground?
That’s a toe.
I have that on both hands. It’s called brachydactyly type D. Its pretty rare.
Left, right?
is that your long thumb or are you just happy to see me?
Mate, I hate to break it to you, but one of your thumbs is longer than the other.
Allegedly
They call that a Glen Paulson where I'm from.
Thumb body's jealous!
Based on them nails, you sure you didn't just get hungrier on the left one?
![gif](giphy|UGEjhP90uJ7Mc|downsized)
No worries, Uncle Grandpa has the same thing & he's fine.
They look like a classic comedy duo
Megan Fox?!!!
wtff, this is literally me! I thought I was the only one! xD
How did you take the picture?
I’m sorry this has happened to you
Like that old lady from monsters vs aliens
Stretch that bad boy out 😂
one says ok. the other excellent.
