    I can't say I rate each finger. What's the next most useless digit?

    I play guitar and strongly disagree.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,221 ✭✭✭BluesBerry

    I throw darts, it's not useless.

    Bloody useless.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,921 ✭✭✭Remmy


    It helps with that claw motion when you are picking things up.Claw hand ftw..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,678 ✭✭✭LambsEye


    I enjoy my little finger. It's an attractive little fellow. Plus the nails on my little fingers always look nice.

    The ring finger, allegedly it shares a tendon with the middle finger and is useless on it's own.

    You wouldn't have it if it was useless. And you would look pretty stupid without it.

    What I would like to know is how long did it take you to come up with this thread? Five minutes is my guess and that's being fair.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 393 ✭✭Quiet you


    It's worth a fair bit of money if you're a carpenter. We found out if you cut it off, even just from the top knuckle, you get 25,000.

    Didn't have the balls to test the insurance company before I got let go though. Shame that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 519 ✭✭✭AnneElizabeth


    Thing ring finger is way more useless. It can't even bend by itself.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,699 ✭✭✭deathrider


    I'm thinking Spider-Man wouldn't be able to "Thwip" properly without extending his little finger... rendering him nothing more than a sticky guy in tights, and a fairly useless superhero. And then the world would be in serious trouble! :eek:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    I play guitar and strongly disagree.

    I've heard you play, and in all honesty, I'm leaning towards agreeing with the OP.


    :p

    I like my little finger,it has a tiny brown mole near the top that I initially thought was chocolate when I first noticed it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,017 ✭✭✭Crow92


    If you make a fist leaving out your ring finger then place the fist on a flat surface, try and lift the free ring finger up..
































    .....the most useless finger by far


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 319 ✭✭Ban Ki Moon


    Its handy for making a sound of a horse galloping. Try it, little finger first


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,346 ✭✭✭blindpilot


    Seems to be the only finger I break when playing football (the GAA one not the soccer one). 9 games broke both little fingers twice. I wasn't picked for the team after the third time. the 4th was in training. I no longer play football of any kind.

    I shove one up my hole while dialling my ex girlfriends number with the other one.

    How's that?

    Well Wiki says that your appendix can be used in the construction of an efferent urinary conduit so ha, not useless. :P

    In all seriousness you can probably find more uses for your little finger than you can for your appendix therefore making it less useless. :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,736 ✭✭✭Irish Guitarist


    I couldn't play an F major chord on the guitar without it.

    The little finger is perfect for when you want to pick the snot out from deep in your nose.

    It's not useless. It gives you several days off school/work when it needs to be removed. And it gives junior surgeons a nice simply surgery so they can practice.
    Have you really heard me play?

    Yes, I'm stalking you. :p
