17 Things People With Big Hands Know All Too Well

Some may argue we've got the whole world in our hands, but here is some critical evidence that proves having big hands is actually the worst thing.

1. Smartphone keypads are not good for us

Or as our fingers would have typed, "Sharon keyboard at not box for fis."

2. Even if you like it, you shouldn't put a ring on it

Sure, getting your finger stuck in a ring while trying it on in a store happens to people with normal hands too. But it happens to us routinely and it just plain hurts.

3. Large peg in a small hole

Pringles cans, tennis ball containers, pickle jars, crevices between car seats or movie theater chairs. You name it, we don't fit in it.

4. Jenga is Swahili for "to torture"

The worst is when you let your friends down. Jenga is actually Swahili for "to build."

5. Bowling ball grievances

The holes are just too small. The only bowling ball with holes that our fingers almost fit in surely weighs 20 pounds.

6. Shirts with wrist buttons

There is a time loss that is incurred because of all the extra buttons that have to be fastened and unfastened to accommodate our excessive paws. That is time we will never, ever recover.

7. The Domino Effect

Survey says we generally suck at setting up Dominoes.

8. Rock, Paper, Scissors Hurt

There are many large-handed children finding themselves at a disadvantage in art class because their fingers get stuck in the scissors. Who has time for that?

9. If it doesn't fit, you just deal with it

All the gloves are hard. Those run of the mill gloves that every drug store sells go on as far as my second knuckle, no joke.

10. Limited crafting opportunities

Do you really think hand beading or silk embroidery is on the to-do list of a large-handed person? Who even likes Origami anyway?

11. Lego my Ego

We want to love Legos but we also don't want to feel like Godzilla wreaking havoc on Legoland.

12. Don't ask us to build a house of cards

This one isn't very common but when it does come up, it is frightful.

13. Alanis makes it sound so easy

It is hard to seem casual and laid back when you can't fit more than a fingernail into your pant pockets. A pair of pants with big enough pockets is coveted.

14. Ceramics 101

How about those mugs where you can only get one finger in the handle (if that)? Most people with large hands resort to slurping their drink out of the mug like a dog.

15. Bull in Barbie's China shop

Barbie's dreamhouse was a place of nightmares for little girls with big hands. So were dollhouses, and Polly Pocket. Remember that tiny toy from the 90s? I will never forget the emotional toll that Polly took on me.

16. Writing with mini golf pencils

Give me a break.

17. Probably not going to win Cupcake Wars

Tiny delicate flowers, hand painting, fondant. I just don't think that would pan out very well for us.
