Amaranthus Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Every day my OH is like; "Where's my fingy?" "Can you pass me the fingy." "Oh I left it on the fingy." What is a fingy??? It seems to change and morph into something different each time it's mentioned! Who invented this horrible word? Why do people use it in place of real words? And can we PLEASE educate the next generation in correct use of the English language so that we can eradicate this word for good!! :rant: I feel much better for getting that off my chest.

gnvqsos Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Oh this is so not wise people, I'm a woman on the edge! I think you need to locate your fingy and comfort yourself.I cannot be more specific as each has their own favourite fingy to rub in times of stress and discomfort.
