Man replaces missing finger with USB Drive

[Majic Walrus]

Really...

Need I say more?

[Eggyman]

Lost his finger, upped his memory. Fair trade.

WTF?

[Immortalfire]

Weird.

[Ace of Knaves]

Why? Why a usb drive? Why not a laser finger or something that could be really useful and unique?

[Eggyman]

If that happened to me I wouldn't get just one thing. I'd get an adapter, and then get lots of things that could connect to the adapter:


toothbrush
laser pen
steak knife
key for my door
wind-proof lighter
guitar pic (plectrum)
extendible pointer thing for lectures and planning missions
glass cutter
torch
platinum rabbit (for her pleasure, not mine)

Eggyman is taking strides to become a superhero... or Inspector Gadget.

[Ace of Knaves]

:hehe: I was JUST about to say Inspector Gadget.

Immortalfire wins the Inspector Gadget race.

[Mdizzle]

Yeah for sure that pic reminds me of Inspector Gadget--guess we all think alike on that one!

So he has a USB right? does he not realise he will have to stand there fingering his computer while he puts stuff on it.... and if he can remove it what happens when he gives it to a friend "Check out these mp3s on my scanky finger!"

[Ace of Knaves]

The big question here is...Does he type with one hand?

The article says that the USB prosthetic is actually detachable. So he probably just pulls the bad boy off of his hand and lets it sit there until he's ready to go again.

[Sam Fisher]

But when he plugs it in, won't his hand get tired?:hehe:

[AnorexicBatman]

So we have Spider-Man (spider bite cures paraplegic) and Cyborg (DC comics)
Can't wait for the others....

[Ace of Knaves]

I think it is about time that superheroes were created. We have the technology, DO IT!!!


:hehe:

[AnorexicBatman]

Iron Man is Japanese and the Joker is dead... or is he?

[CashforStash]

I can actually see my self doing this to my self if I lost a finger :(

[imdaly]

This takes the term "thumb drive" to a whoooole new level! :D :up:

[DV8]

WTF?

LOL! He better have at least 8GB in that bad boy . . .

[DV8]

Here comes the bionic man . . . except all he can do right now is upload pics from his finger to Myspace :~S

[imdaly]

It's just amazing to think about how far technology has come now for us to have all this information at our fingertips.

[Camisado]

Certainly a strange choice...

[C.F. Kane]

No one has made an Inspector Gadget joke yet. I'm surprised.

If this was in a comic book, we'd call this guy the deus ex machina when it came time for the team to download cryptic information in the villain's stronghold.
