lately ive been thinking alot about my thumbs.
ive been spending quite some time apreciating them
during everyday activities.
for example, drinking my glass of water, how would we
hold a cup without aposable thumbs?
what would cups look like if not for these wonderful
gifts?
and how would the cups be made, without the ease of grip
and movement that comes with aposable thumbs?
EVERYTHING would be different without them.
new things would exist, and so many things that exist
in this magical aposabble thumb world, would not.
like buttons (the sewing kind.)
i cant help but think of the endless list of objects that
would nolonger resemble the version of the object we
enjoy with ease in this lucky world of thumbs. like
pens, gear sticks, sewing machines, phones, remote
controles, zips, magic wands.
how could we even gesture that everything was fine and dandy
without thumbs?
and im sure after, now yourself, also giving it some
thought you would have too relised that circular knobs,
like the kind you use to controll the volume on your sterio
(unless of course you want to go ahead and be a smart
ass and agrue that you infact have buttons you click)
wont even exist. and what the fuck will a jam jar look
like? or jars of any variaty? without these splendid
aposable thumbs, how would it be possible to open
anything of a circular shape that requires a circular
motion and a firm grip.
i could continue onto yet even more questions on balls
(yes, i am regetibly aware of the conintations of such word),
tying shoelaces and bowling, but its way past my bed
time.
