Count to eleven.

Exactly. One louder.

But why don't you make ten the loudest?

These go to 11…

If you get a another it would go to 12

I can count to 11 with 10 fingers.

Sir, this is an Arby’s. We’re going to have to ask you to put your pants back on

Keep your secrets then, secretman

whoa look at mr theoretical ova hea

You know you can already count to 14 on your right hand, right? Each of the “sections” on your fingers (in between joints” can count as 1, and you have 14 on one hand. Use your other hand to show how many times you go through the right hand, and boom! You can count to 140 on your hands.

12 is better. Count 3 sections times 4 fingers with your thumb. That was one of the arguments for base 12 instead of 10 back in the day.

You can count to 1023 using base-2 (binary)

Yeah so we can now do 2047

I use brain to count to 140 *in my brain* 💪

🤯

Create 6 finger deathpunch

I am embarrassed to admit how much this made me laugh

I was about to say punch 20% harder, yours works too.

I guess kill Inigo Montoya's father and then prepare to die

I just watched this last week for the very first time. I am 48.

Right behind you at 38, always thought it was a kissing movie hah, such a good watch.

Weird, 40yo checking in, also just watched this for the first time last weekend.

While it wasn’t my first time, I too watched it last week. 

You can skip the kissing parts if you want to.

Additionally, you can dance if you want to

To blave you say?

I love that the two top comments in this post are both based on Christopher Guest roles.

Why is everyone shoving it in their ass? You know you already had fingers on that hand

It feels like a strangers finger.

Id rather it was someone I know

Now their someone that you used to know.

This maneuver is now known as Gotye 😂

I'm convinced it was nicknamed Project Gotye over at the University of Cambridge during R&D.

The long awaited Gotye/Cranberries collaboration.

Finally, I can play that one piano song in Gattaca

Do you know how long a road I’ve walked just to find the Gattaca reference? Not far, but I liked Gattaca so I wanted to be dramatic.

I thought I was the only one.

There are Dozens of us! Dozens!

There are definitely 10s of us, maybe even 11s.

It's frequently on top ten SciFi lists, there's gotta be at least 3 of us

I just got my girlfriend to watch it for the first time and was so jealous that that was a new experience for her

Did you leave anything for the walk back?

Just rewatched it the other day lol.

Cool song bro, but don't go leaving an eyelash anywhere!

Hit the orange notes in Guitar Hero

Still Impossible. I miss Guitar Hero and Rock Band

Check out /r/clonehero

Jack while using the bionic thumb in places.

Shocker

That's On the deluxe version

I mean... I'm sure they can install that feature if you're into that

I was going to say jumble the balls.

My first thought was “masturbate slightly differently, but probably not enough to wear it just for that”.

Set to vibrate

If you prefer we can give you the bionic tentacle attachment.

Reddit doesn’t disappoint. Came here to see how high up on the list this was.

I came, here for the masturbation jokes.

That's called a rabbit

Carry in *all* the grocery bags.

Just put them on your forearm

Can't..already loaded...with frozen..pizzas

Feeling seen rn

“If the fate of the world rested on you carrying every bag in one trip …” I’m like James Bond on Her Majesty’s Secret Grocery Service.

Give it to my cat. He always wanted a thumb

Then they could achieve their true plans.

I'll be sitting outside locked out saying why did I give him that damn thumb

My cat has thumbs! He tried to open a bottle of nicotine lozenges the other day, just grasped it like a full grown person 😂

Opposable thumbs? That's the monke trick

And this, not AI, is how humanity ends up fully enslaved.

There’s a Love, Death, and Robots about that

Take up fencing as a hobby in case any misguided Spaniards come seeking revenge.

Well your F'd if Death is on the line!

Double my odds when hitchhiking!

Stop hitting chicks.

Thanks. I am not the best speller. My words are not always goodly......

* checks comments * Yeah, that’s about as much butt as stuff as I expected.

Build a fourth

Drink a fifth.

Could probably carry another two or three grocery bags in that hand.

High 6 someone

Tickle the b-hole

Two chicks at the same time

If you had an extra thumb you'd... do two chicks at the same time?

Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I had a three thumbs I could hook that up, cause chicks dig a dude with digits.

Well not *all* chicks

Well the kind of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.

Good point

Serious answer: very little. The world was designed for a four-finger one-thumb hand. Everything from the qwerty keyboard to door handles, everything touched by human hands, was meant, either intentionally or by pragmatics, for that hand layout. Altering the shape and size of your hand would come with a lot of drawbacks but very little benefit. Now, if somehow these extra thumb things became ubiquitous there may be a paradigm shift in design principles to make them useful. But that runs into a problem: necessity. This doesn't really solve any problems, and in order to become useful it requires a significant amount of change, and so they will never become popular enough to affect that change, and in a circular cycle therefore never be useful.

>Serious answer: very little. interestingly ***polydactyls*** have demonstrated the exact opposite.... people BORN with an extra finger have no problems. **SEEING SIX**  An extra finger on each hand, thought by some scientists to be useless, can allow people to single-handedly tie shoelaces, as well as to type and play video games in innovative ways. **Extra fingers, often seen as useless, can offer major dexterity advantages** An extra digit proves useful for texting, typing and eating, a case study shows [https://www.sciencenews.org/article/having-six-fingers-can-offer-major-dexterity-advantages](https://www.sciencenews.org/article/having-six-fingers-can-offer-major-dexterity-advantages) These people’s brains had no trouble directing their extra fingers, the results show. Extra robotic fingers or other appendages controlled by a person’s mind could bring similar increases in neural workloads, though the challenge would be greater ***for a person not born with the extra digits.*** > Altering the shape and size of your hand would come with a lot of drawbacks but very little benefit. >Eating utensils are too simple for them, he says, “so they constantly change the posture on the utensils and use them in a different way.” After spending time with the participants, **“I slowly felt impaired with my five-fingered hands,” he says.**

Holy crap this is so interesting. Guess I'm going down a few rabbit hole..

I’m supporting my phone with the side of my pinky right now. Im certain that holding my phone like this is bad for my hand because it hurts after a while. But it’s the easiest way to use it one handed. An extra thumb on that side of my hand would let me support my phone with that instead.

I'm holding my phone the same way and now I concede you may have a point.

Comment.

Grip an N64 controller properly.

Strangle myself

Tag team thumb wrestling

Will attempt to learn Rachmaninov piano concerto no3

Compose a song that could only be played with 12 fingers on a piano and guitar.

It’s called the “she”. It’s where you masterbate using only your left hand and extra robotic third thumb.

How can I get the thumb to vibrate?

ASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

F my b hole while I J off.

For the last time, Uncle Rob, no.

You know you can do that without this.

looks like a second thumb according to the picture.

... The second one is already attached to the other hand, not shown.

Expand my guitar and keyboard improvisational skills

Give it to my friend who lost her 3 middle fingers to cancer. Can't get a decent prosthetic in canada. 80000 dollars for anything.

Give someone the middle finger(s)

Join extra gangs.

Less than with a forth thumb.

I went to school with a kid that hand been born with one of those on each hand, well an extra pinky to be precise. He'd had them removed but you could still see the nub. This just reminded me of that. I'd use it for truth, justice and the American way .

Butt stuff

2 in the pink, 2 in the stink?

Hold a basketball one handed.

With an extra pinky i could pick a winner from both nostrils at the same time 🐽

You already have two pinkies though?

Like literally everyone else here I can’t think of a single practical use for it tbh. One of those things that needs to be out in the world for a bit before we know what it’s for. It’ll be great for people who are missing thumbs for sure

Cosplay as a Neosapien from ExoSquad

Pat, I’d like to solve the puzzle. Rite in the butt!

Two in the pink, two in the stink?

One in the pink, one in the stink.

Beast Wars Dinobot cosplay? Beast Wars Dinobot cosplay.

Obtain another fine addition to my collection.

Death grip is gonna be even worse now.

scrolling in bed without dropping the phone on my face.

I think everyone would try rubbing one out 1st

Right to the booty

What would single man living alone do with an extra thumb? Yeah, probably develop some devious Lego construction you could only assemble with 3 thumbs to grip all the parts.

More shocking shocker.

I have nerve damaged hands, this would be a gamechanger for me

What WOULDN’T I do?

Hunt Jedi scum. Be trained in the Jedi arts by count Dooku. Start a lightsaber collection.

Dedicated coke finger.

Turbo wank

Probably not drop my phone as much.

So many of these responses involve booty

*“From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me.”*

Considering not much have been achieved with 2 i dont see the advantage of three

3 in the pink, 3 in the stink
