Dang, now I really want an extra pair of arms.

Anyone up to date with prosthetic limb technology?

Think maybe I can glue em to my ribs or something?

Omg, I can finally use my cane and carry more than one f*n thing at a time! Or - on a rough day - use my walker and carry my coffee without fear of a tiny bump into something spilling coffee everywhere! It's the little things like that that I miss

I use one of the extra arms to hit the enter key at work. This brings me much joy.

Seriously, one of my biggest frustrations is the tiny inefficiency caused by needing to use a mouse and keyboard at the same time. I can navigate most of it with just the left hand side of the keyboard except for hitting enter at the end of forms. Moving my hand off my mouse or from the left hand side of the keyboard to the right in this rapid, heavily repeated process is uncomfortable.

Now I've written all that I've realised I should just bind it to something on the left hand side of the keyboard or the mouse though. Oh well, I'll put it on the to do for Monday lmao

Also being able to type with both hands, hold the old school corded phones we still have, and use the mouse or write with a pen at the same time would rule.

I shudder at how even more awkward hugs would be. There is four permutations (with regards to arm-positioning) for hugs between two two-armed individuals. It's way to early to calculate how many two sets of four arms will give. I'm quite sure I would still get it wrong 95% of the times (With a 5% confidence interval).
