Random question to any scientists out there:

Aren't all your fingerprints meant to be the same?

Nine of mine are swirls that run off sideways like an upsidedown teardrop that's been squashed. But the ring finger on my right hand has concentric circles like the rings on a tree. I've been staring at them in all sorts of light, but it's definitely different, and definitely the only one.

Weird.

ETA: thanks to all of you who explained the mysteries of fingerprints to me!
