#37: Index Finger Only Bends at a Right Angle
To be honest, if I had to do it without one joint, it would almost definitely be this one. I’m not entirely sure that I have any use for it as it is. I mean, it probably does help me out with some of those fine motor skills, but I don’t have particularly great fine motor skills anyway, so how bad could it be without them?
In fact, I’m so confident that I don’t critically need the topmost joints on my pointer fingers that I’m willing to auction them off to a better home. However, countless things in my day-to-day life probably require my joints to move freely.
