NaBarney Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 I use two thumbs. I am typing this post your way. It is pretty weird but i could see getting used to this. I hold pens and pencils a unique way that everyone always comments on. Basically I just grip it between my middle and ring fingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doom Metal Alchemist Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 When texting, sometimes my right thumb, sometimes my right index finger. Never both thumbs. When doing anything else, always my right index finger. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunkenwarrior Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I had to think about it while I typed this.... I guess I just use my thumbs, mostly my left one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sieg67 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I use only the thumb of the hand I hold my phone with. Needless to say it takes forever to type anything like that. I really should start using both hands. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a pretty good theory. I got my first phone when I was like 12. 10 hours ago, Poof said: I feel weird w/both thumbs. Do you scroll w/a thumb? I do.

Didn't get my first phone til I was 20. Was a flip phone and a TracPhone. Hated texting so I didn't do it for a few years. Even now I don't like it cause of the huge margin of error it has for typing simple things out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
