Hand meme




I was tagged by Kitem



Normally this would be a place to crank out some dirty jokes about Rosie and her five sisters and their Uncle "Harry Palms" I'll go ahead and play this one straight...


.

A hand covered in scars


.


A hand that turns a wrench

.


A hand that holds a pistol when I target practice

.


A hand that hold my kids hand when we cross the street.


.


A hand that types out all this crazy blog shit day after day

.

A hand that massages my wife's feet when she needs it.
.

A hand that provides the fingernails I chew till they bleed.

.

This is my right hand.
.
I think I'll keep it.

That, my friend, is a mighty useful hand. I'd keep it too if I were you.

You can see a man's life in his hands.

If that is really a picture of your hand on your keyboard I would like you to explain to me why the bottom roll of 'keys' are longer than the rest.

I see other problems with that picture also, I've tried my hand on my keyboard in this position and it isn't even close to what I see here. I think that you are pulling our legs. :-)

Hey, pull this finger.

james: I plan to :)

mushy: you can see every car repair in mine :)

BBC: Funny camera angle I guess.
But that's all me.

Hard to take a right hand pic with the left.

I think bbc is onto something here. The 'a' key is missing and that forefinger sure doesn't seem to go with the rest of them. I bet that's one of them there fake rubber hands people use when they post hand pictures on the internet and don't want everyone recognizing them. That's what I bet.

Damn JP you caught me using my stand in hand.

I clicked on the pic an my keyboard looks smeggy and disgusting. I'm replacing it tomorrow.

That's funny, but I didn't think that a stand-in hand looked so...well...battle scarred.

However, it's where it should be for your wife and children.

THANKS Hammer, all i can see is lovely hands, very handy and useful for plenty of purposes. I wouldn't have mind to hear about Rosie and uncle Harry.
You don't tag anybody else in turn?

That's a pretty good hand. I'll bet it's relieved it's not getting the boot.

deborah: Everytime I pick up a wrench, knife or garden implement I get a permanent reminder tatooed on my skin :)

john: you beat me to it lol :)

cheesy: I used to punch things that weren't supposed to be punched. Walls, cars, trees not people though, at least not often ;)

kitem: I forgot to tag :P

jeannie: Yeah I signed him on for a few more years ;)

Neat. You are right though. Our hands seem to take the brunt of a lot of things in life as well as your tongues lash out. Great post though.

The discoloration on your first two knuckles in the pictures resembles that on a lot of long term karate adepts who work out on a makiwara, their first two knuckles toughen from hitting it. I use to see it quite a bit back in the late sixties and early seventies when I used to compete in tournaments.

tweety: yeah they still work ok, I hope I don't get the arthritis that my grandmotehr has.

kb: at least it doesn't glow ;)

bobg: I busted my knuckles working on cars for a long time that's probably where it came from.
