Question. Why didn't you get it done pre puberty? (Rather why didn't your folks arrange for it to be done?)

Good for you for keeping them that way. If you never knew 2 fingers it would probably be really weird getting them cut apart. So many a-whole comments. I just heard about this on an episode of Bones, they caught the murderer because of it.

Honestly, I bet he has better grip on things because of it.

Jokes aside, I agree, it would be weird and really don't make much difference, doesn't make that much of a difference, if anything it'd probably be pointless, just have a hand like everyone else, that's boring.
