If Things Had Been Different

I've got a pretty vivid imagination & I've sometimes wondered about many aspects of life, if visually we had been born differently.

We take it for granted people have blonde, brown, red hair but what if it was the norm to have been born with purple, teal or blue etc hair? Let's stay away from artificial nonsense as we know anything can be done these days for alteration. I'm talking about if it was natural for the whole population.

What if people were naturally born with 3 eyes or 4 arms? What if we we had pointed teeth or a forked tongue? How about 10 fingers on each hand, 7 toes?

Oh well, I'm having a hard time thinking of threads right now

Never have guessed!

I would sometimes like another hand or a prehensile tail!

Could have done with 3 arms and hands this morning, walking two dogs and needing a third hand to hold Gracie's as we crossed the road, actually a fourth would have been handing so I could have picked up the poop without the fuss of crossed and mixed up leads !

Not sure more fingers would help but more hands and arms would make a difference.

More legs ? not sure although if one went wrong you could use the spare !

Re: If Things Had Been Different

How about less dogs than extra arms and hands.

Perhaps we have 2 of most things in case we lose one, whereas having more than 2 probably renders one as superfluous most of the time? I have very nearly lost the sight in my left eye owing to stone throwing as a kid but hardly notice it.

I think we should have been born 'bionic' - replacement parts, just like that.
No doctors. hospitals required - sounds good ta me

Imagine having 2 bums?

Re: If Things Had Been Different

I'd rather not

Re: If Things Had Been Different

Having hurt my coccyx once I would have liked another to sit on while it healed ! But imagine the clothing we would need with all these arms legs and bottoms !!

Re: If Things Had Been Different

Nah that wouldn't work for me.
