Ring Finger
I have heard that you wear your* wedding ring on the third finger because it's connected directly to your heart. Not too much of a surprise really since I guess every bit of you is connected to your heart but I can verify that there is a nice little artery running down the inside of your ring finger...

Many moons ago in a chemistry lab far away a young Ugi was washing a chromatography column - essentially a pyrex tube about 2 feet long and an inch or two wide with a tap on the bottom. And it slipped. And being the lightning-reflexed youth that I was I caught it. Only I caught it a fraction of a second after the bottom end hit the sink.

So suddenly I am holding on to a massive hand-full of bits of pointy glass where my lovely column was but moments before. Amazingly it cut me with only one tiny piece - a shard went into the inside of my then-bare ring finger sending truly impressing squirts of crimson Uginess into the air with every heartbeat!

It stopped quickly and healed well but for a few moments I made a truly impressive human fountain from a cut only half an inch long - and the side of that finger felt cold for years after.

*not you you - I mean "one" only it sounds just too ridiculous to actually put in writing

I would have clicked...
... but you expressly used the word 'you', when you should've used 'one'!

(edit: on reflection, I did like the word Uginess, so I have decided to click after all)

You replied to this so I assume
you took the OP to be addressing you.
Therefore he was correct.
/out-pedanting.

I am confused because the asterix is next to the word "your" and not "you" as the OP describes.
The "your" may be replaced with an "a" and would have nothing to do with the one, ones, your and yours argument.

Shove that up your underwhelming pedantry.

Is pedantry ever even whelming?

because the asterix is next to the word "your" and not "you" as the OP describes. when my medication wears off.

He's ninja'd it to ratshit, supposedly to explain what he first wrote. Unfortunately that makes our comments look even more stupider than what they was already.


Or maybe he's a timelord.

Surely I would be confused whilst in the throws of my medication and when the medication
wore off I would see that I was wrong. Alas, there is no ninja edit and that the asterix remains on the word "yours" not "your" as described in the sub text. I like to blame medication but alas etc. etc. on this occasi. . . yawn

Well done. About time.

To contradict a fellow commentator, I do not like the use of the word Uginess - far too
self-referential. In addition I think the use of Young Ugi is pretentious.

Phew!
Good thing he typed 'young Ugi' and not 'Young Ugi' then.

I was not refering to his typing, I was emphasising the usage with mine.

Your intended meaning was unclear, at best. The appropriate and correct use of quotation marks would, in future comments, assist in adding clarity.

You tiny bender.

Oh no you didn't just go there.
