Your middle finger is only your middle finger if you also count your thumb as a finger. Which I find hard to accept. @showerthoughts 🖕

I used to genuinely argue that it wasn’t a finger bc it had only two segments, not three. I’ve since realized that there is a third and I’m fucking stupid.
Your original instinct was actually correct. Fingers have the metacarpal, proximal phalange, middle phalange, and distal phalange. The thumb doesn’t have a middle phalange. The proximal and distal phalange connect directly to each other.
I may or may not have just started feeling up my hand while wiggling my fingers to check this
