Number 5: Pinky Finger
Although all fingers are valuable and special, the pinky finger gets the short end of the stick (pun intended) in terms of usage and popularity. The tiniest of the finger family is the only finger that has no job or function, making us question why it even exists.
Number 4: Middle Finger
The long, elegant nature of the beautifully crafted middle finger might make you wonder why it is so low on this ranking. Although this finger may be the most aesthetically pleasing of the fingers, it's notorious association with a certain stinky potty word puts it at number 4.
Number 3: Ring Finger
The ring finger is placed perfectly at number 3 for the fact that it's completely average. It serves the purpose of holding a ring and has no strange or differentiating appearance. The finger also has a deeper meaning in terms of love and marriage, making it slightly special and important.
Number 2: Thumb
The thumb is by far the most important finger on our hands. It gives us a natural edge over other mammals and creatures in that we have an opposable digit. The thumb is what allows us to easily grip and hold objects - a liberty not many other creatures have. However, it's placed at number two for the sole reason that it looks like a melted candy bar.
Number 2: Index/Pointer Finger
As expected, the best finger on your hand is the index finger. It's iconic, it's useful, and it is the moment.
