Which is the fastest growing fingernail?

Hello fellow USMers!

Here is an interesting bit of true facts that you may or may not have realized.

Which fingernail is the one that grows the fastest? Hint, it’s not the pinky finger.......

Fingernails grow at an average rate of 3.47 millimetres per month. However, not all fingernails grow at the same rate. The fastest growing nail is the one on your middle finger, which is usually the longest finger. The rate at which your nails grow is affected by a number of factors including your age, gender and hormones. For example, men’s nails tend to grow faster than women’s, with the exception of women’s nails during pregnancy. Your fingernails also grow faster during the day and during the summer. Strangely, the nails on your dominant hand grows faster than the nails on your non-dominant hand.

One might’ve guessed since the middle finger is very universal......

How it changed my life:

My gestures have more meaning now!

...I've never seen anyone salute with a finger up their nose before but I guess it's a southern thing and I'm not
one of those Emily Post types that will try to change your habits and attempt to make you genteel.

I do appreciate the colossal effort you have made here and it must have been difficult to peel yourself away from
the pages of your favorite collection of jokes that make people want to drop a hammer on their foot.

One curious thing that I have noticed as I age is that finger and toe nails seem to grow more quickly.
I could be wrong about this and it just may be a matter of time passing and me forgetting that it has passed.
This happens a lot these days. I usually have to monitor USM for the (ahem) "Joke of the Week" as it appears like
clockwork on Saturdays and is my benchmark and the only way I can usually tell which day of the week it actually is.

I'm even having difficulty remembering what MONTH it is as the ground is covered with snow at present and the flakes
are still falling. Should I be singing Christmas carols already?

...I said I wasn't the Emily Post type but wouldn't it be a good idea to clip those fingernails of yours?
They must do a lot of damage to your hardwood floors as you move around.

...or, you could maybe read a little Darwin, evolve and try bipedalism. Others have and it really is a thing these days.

  
Date: 4/21/2021 5:35:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Been looking in the mirror again haven’t you?

I may currently reside in the South but have not adopted such customs, and am curious to know more regarding your Canadian way of life...if that’s what you call it. From what I can tell, genteel fashion does not include plaids in your tuxedos.

Thank u for your ever courteous and thought filled meanderings as you drool over your morning gruel. You are such an inspiration to us all!
  
Date: 4/21/2021 5:39:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Speaking of evolving, are you still in hiding with the rest of the Yeti clan up there? You guys are good at hide-n -seek.  
Date: 4/21/2021 5:39:00 AM  From Authorid: 5301    

...for your information, plaid tuxedos are all the rage these days.
In about ten years they will be in fashion there too as your Goodwill
stores get stocked up with our discarded clothing. Just hang tight!

  
Date: 4/21/2021 5:42:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    I’ll have you know that MY thrift stores don’t export from the land of the loons,
We have cultivated daisy dukes and overalls by gosh!
  
Date: 4/21/2021 5:51:00 AM  From Authorid: 5301    

...I'm almost certain that all the readers at USM would just love to have you post a photo of yourself
in your Daisy Dukes. They could then show the pic to their children and explain the dangers of long fingernails
and the damage that they can have upon otherwise sturdy fabric apparel.

...as I mentioned earlier, it is still snowing here.
The Yeti are still vacationing in Florida at this time
and find it quite conducive to their way of life.

  
Date: 4/21/2021 5:58:00 AM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Only if you post a photo of you in your plaid tuxedo.

Yeti are vacationing in Florida and Republicans have gravitated there en mass, this explains why they’re hard to find .
  
Date: 4/21/2021 10:13:00 AM  From Authorid: 5301    

...I already donated the plaid tuxedo to the Sally Ann.
I'm trying to stay on the leading edge of fashion trends and my new tux is made of burlap with multicolored sequins.
I'm going commando because the underwear is too scratchy. I'll send them to you if you want.

...you are incorrect sir!
It's a design by Richard Simmons. Eat crow fashion failure!

  
Date: 4/21/2021 7:35:00 PM  From Authorid: 5301    

...admit it, this IS your style:

...flamboyant, yet tasteful. I'm going to have one of those made as beachwear.

  
Date: 4/23/2021 4:20:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Hey Larry Once, long ago, in a schoolyard, far, far, away. I gave the middle finger salute to a bully, who had run me down and tackled me, just short of safety. (I was making for the assistant principal's office.)

Anyway, he was one of those bullies' who would mess with your head, as well as your body. So, he says to me, "You don't even know what that means, do you?" Not to be outdone, I replied, "Of course I do. It means SHUT UP!" (I was very young, at the time.)

He poked me in the eye, and told everybody that I was stupid. When I got home, I asked my father what it meant and he put me kneeling in a corner for fifteen minutes. Man, was I ever confused. So, I went to the parish priest and asked him what it meant and he excommunicated me. It's always been tough being an adolescent.
  
Date: 4/23/2021 10:51:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    Yeah Kronk, but it could be a lot worse. Some “ adolescents “ never grow up. Some never learn. They just become the proverbial albatross around the neck of society......which is why I dedicated this post to you know who.
