Miscellaneous Mondays: Gory Trigger Warning




Revenge of the Finger

One Friday night in late September Rachel was out playing dodge ball in Seattle. She reached out to catch a flying ball but missed. Looking down she noticed something was amiss. Her finger was crooked! Cursing her ill luck she left the playing field in search of ice and so begins the saga of the pinkie finger...
