I want one

did anybody else assume this was a new slang term for "penis"

yes

If you havin' thumb problems, I feel bad for you, son
I got 99 problems but my dick ain't one (hit me)

that’s clearly a second thumb, this thread title is bullshit

unless we’re counting both hands in which case it could just as easily be a fourth thumb

lol I like that the video shows no one doing anything even remotely useful with their third thumb--even the guitarist afaict--just staring at it with delight

Four thumbs is just showing off, but three thumbs? *chef's kiss*

scientists are calling it the goldilocks thumb

give a guitarist a third thumb and i'd expect him to do the same thing with it as he would with a second or third neck: put it on the guitar!

how would a second neck work

like, would it come out of the top of your shoulder and connect to your chin

that first image confused me because it initially looked like a "third thumb" had replaced the "second thumb". here's another angle:

i'm waiting for the third ARM patch to come out, so i can use it to constantly punch upward as i walk (defending me from attacks from above)

gettin' kinda Goro up in this mug

trying to really think about what i would do with two thumbs on one hand. i guess first and foremost i'd be pinching things really hard with them

popsicle sticks would have to be redesigned to withstand the additional pressure

my first thought, inevitably, was jacking off with it

it would completely change the fingersnap (??)

all fingersnapping sections in musical pieces would have to be rewritten, or at least adapted for different thumb situations

how would a second neck work

like, would it come out of the top of your shoulder and connect to your chin

shit man you know how many doorways opposable thumbs opened up for humanity?

clearly this is the great leap forward, this is the secret to achieving post-human transcendence

actually now i feel like writing a sci-fi story where the evil supergenius is intent on achieving ultimate power through giving himself an extra thumb

*SNAPS SECOND AND THIRD THUMBS TOGETHER, INCREDIBLY LOUDLY *

EUREKA!!!

new movie review option: three thumbs up, way up

when we’re chastising people for procrastinating in the future we’ll need to tell them to get their thumbs out of their ass

speaking of, "the shocker" is going to have to be modified

or rather it now will be REALLY shocking

two in the pink
one in the stink
one for Elijah

using every thumb i can source to fp dan for that post

kind of shocked that he went there

no yr not

My timing possibly could have been better
