sorry for the bad quality, my phone is bad up close
I hit my pinky finger real bad while hammering a nail when I was a kid, it broke off some of the skin but when it grew back it kinda has a divit in it. Doesn't hurt or cause issues in any way but it's just kinda a interesting part about my body that's unique and I probably wouldn't fix if given the chance.
I've come to love these little inconstancies that shows that a body has been used for fun and living, scars with a story are really sweet.
I can't make my pinky and ring finger touch my other fingers on my left hand. It looks like I'm doing a bad Vulcan impression if I try. I can however make them touch if I bend my fingers. But if they are straight, they flex out to the side. I've tried for years to correct it but had no success.
I have that but with my right hand. It makes proper high-fiving difficult and people just assumed I was lying about not being able to close my fingers properly. It's really validating to hear someone else with a similar issue.
That's pretty interesting. A shorter-than-typical ligament or something, maybe.
Similarly, my brother can't make a peace sign because having the pinky and ring finger down causes his middle finger to push forward and he has to physically prop it up to get it in line with his index finger.
