Top 10 Most Useless Body Parts
-
Male Nipples
No good uses... but may I remind you that the butt, crotch, and brain are very important.
Give me one good use for these... Go on, I dare you.
-
Wisdom Teeth
Yeah, I don't think they do anything for your smarts. Most people get them taken out anyway, so where's the wisdom in that?
Mine came in alright. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones because I've known people who had theirs come in sideways... Ouch!
Why do they call them wisdom teeth when they don't have the ability to dig themselves out of the mouth?
-
Appendix
This is cool to be though. You can:
1. Be a bulge
2. Be the ruler of the digestive system
3. Be feared by the other organs
4. Look like a sexy line
5. Bully and roast the worst organ, the large intestine
6. Stare at a human's ass
7. Sleep all day
8. Be immortal
9. Force the large intestine to stop causing constipation and diarrhea
10. Self-destruct
I sometimes have a fear of getting appendicitis. It normally happens to children, but did you know Zac Efron got it when he was 20?
What are they even for? They are utterly useless.
-
Coccyx
The final vertebra of the spine. This is from the time we had tails. More rudimentary remains no one cares about.
It's got no purpose, and it really hurts when you fall on your back. Ow.
It would be a lot more useful if we had tails.
-
Body Hair
Yeah, it's really annoying shaving it off. I saw something on television about women with body hair, probably because of how annoying it is.
Most of it is annoying, but eyebrows are useful for expressing emotions and keeping our eyes clean.
Once I had to wax my armpits, and it hurt like hell.
-
Plica Semilunaris
Otherwise known as the "third eyelid," this is the remains of a nictitating membrane that many reptiles have. Ha, take that creationism! Darwin's got a point! Speaking of...
-
Darwin's Point
A small folded piece of skin at the top corner of some people's ears. It may have been used to localize sound easier but now is just another rudimentary body part that 1 out of 10 people have.
-
Buttocks
In a physiological sense (my dad told me, he's a heart surgeon), a person's butt is important for sitting down, obviously, and even more importantly, for standing upright.
Stupid people getting plastic surgery to make them bigger. WHY? I'm actually fat and have big ones naturally, and I don't like them being so big.
Actually, the butt muscles are what allow you to stand upright.
-
Adenoids
They're like tonsils but have no purpose whatsoever because they are only a defense until the age of 5. They start to shrink, and by the age of 10, they are pretty much useless. Yet they can still get inflamed like tonsils. Bummer...
-
Gall Bladder
It's used to store bile, which is a substance critical to digestion. Plus, pufferfish expand their gallbladder (yeah, their gallbladder) to not only give it a distinct look but to defend against predators. So it isn't entirely useless.
My dad had to get this removed because it had become really bad. He almost died.
If it becomes a gallstone factory, out it goes.
-
?
Xiphoid Process
This is a terrible bone that can break easily and then stab internal organs for no reason.
-
?
Toenails
-
Floating Ribs
Rudimentary remains from our ancestors. Some creatures have more than 10 pairs of true ribs. Most people have 2 pairs, but they don't really protect anything.
-
Sinuses
When my dad got Ramsay Hunt syndrome (sorry if I spelled that wrong), he lost the sinus feelings in his face. They still aren't perfect, and his face almost looks lopsided without a beard.
If you didn't have sinuses, air would be trapped in your skull, putting pressure on the brain. Be thankful for them.
Ever had an infection of these bad boys? Not very nice.
-
Arrector Pili Muscles
-
Earlobes
-
Adam's Apple
Believe it or not, girls have an Adam's Apple too, but you can't see it.
-
Tonsils
My best friend in kindergarten had to get her tonsils out, so I don't really know what they're used for.
They can sometimes cause problems and end up needing to be removed.
I had mine removed, and I'm completely fine. It actually hurts like hell when it's removed.
-
Nails
And how do we attack an enemy except with our fists?
Fingernails are useful for scratching, but toenails are useless.
-
Eyebrows
-
Auricular Muscles
-
Foreskin
It serves to protect the glans. Very important!
-
Frenulum
-
Breasts
Only useful for breastfeeding, and for men and lesbians to lust after if they are big. It's better to have big ones naturally.
-
Vomeronasal Organ
-
Head Hair
-
Second Kidney
