huh?
The joke is that thumbs typically aren't referred to as fingers (yes I know they technically are), implying that the OP only has 8 digits.
i have never heard people refer to thumbs as a thing by itself and not just another finger
English is weird. They don’t count toes as fingers either.
damn, imagine only having 8 fingers
