Red thumb

My nephew was born missing his thumb on his right hand. This never bothered him a bit. One day in elementary school he had a substitute teacher. As he was eating lunch in the cafeteria, he squirted ketchup on his hand where the thumb wasn’t. He then told the substitute teacher he accidentally cut his thumb off. When the teacher returned the next day, she enjoyed informing his mother of his prank. To this day, we still laugh about it.
