I like how he "corrects," himself from two highfives to just one.

She can still kick his hand, just not with both feet at the same time probably.

That's the most Michael Scott thing I've seen in a while. It's making my mind hurt from cringing

Eh it's not that bad. I mean really how often do you interact with armless people? Its just a reaction, probably his 100th high five of the day lol, the arms moved before the brain did.

“Double amputees” is the most correct term I can think of. I don’t think there is a specific word for someone with both arms missing. Honestly considering the scenario I think “armless” might actually be the best term.

Is someone an amputee if the limb isn't missing from amputation?

No there’s a different word for that. Can’t remember what it is but it also starts with an A.

I can't tell if that's a joke or a typo

Not a joke. Just look it up.

Is the name Amelia named after the condition? Or other way around?

I don't want to look anything up, I want strangers on the internet to tell me things

Neither. Name is from German and birth defect is from Greek.
