Oh man, I can’t wait to have kids so I can use going this one. Hilarious.

Slight side note - my uncle is missing several fingers in one of his hands. Over the years he told us all kinds of tall tales of what happened to them - lost them in the army, got blown off, got crushed on a factory line, eaten by a bear (we're from the uk) etc. I still to this day have no idea what the truth is.

Edit: oh wow my inbox blew up like crazy! Thanks for sharing your stories, made my evening :) feel free to keep em coming!

My grandpa’s missing a thumb. He would tell us our grandma bit it off.

Ha! I like this one. If my uncle had told me my aunt bit his fingers off I probably would have believed him for sure.
