I just realized that I have been
holding the mouse funny and cannot stop doing it

problem is it's starting to make one of my fingers hurt


so now I'm taping my ring finger to my pinkie

One thing I've never been sure of with mice, especially ones with scroll wheels: are you supposed to press the right button with your middle or ring finger? I've always used my middle finger, and I now suspect this may be incorrect...

yeah long story short my mouse broke
so I'm using a different one that's like more form fitted or something

and like it is deff set up for right clicking with your ring finger


my poor pinkie has no place to go and
I couldn't seem to stop dragging it all over my 90's mouse pad  



I keep trying to use my ring finger
instead of my middle but dang I cannot do it

accidentally click it all the time



yeah the only thing I can
come up with now it taping my fingers together haha

I have to hold the mouse weirdly myself since my little finger on my right hand is broken and bent out of shape. ;

You're all very silly.

I use my pinkie to right click.

Kidding. Nobody does that..

Do they..?

I use almost every finger with this monster 14 button mouse:



Just the pinkie is left out, no button for it.

My trackball has the scroll where my middle finger is, due to the thumb operating the ball on it.

But that's different from a "normal" mouse.

I pretty much use my pointing finger for the LBM and the scrollwheel, my thumb for the macro pad and my middle finger for the RMB.
I'm blue weird

On a serious note, I do this.
Though, nearly every person I met in person has as well. I think only two people used them different. But both were used to only having had single-button mice on their severely dated iMacs.

I've got the Cataclysm version. A couple less buttons, but just as comfy.
